5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
I'm tellin' ya there is a ton of people building huge horsepowah on them old blocks and they do great. If you can get yo hands on a late model 351 and benefit from the roller type thang then BOOYAH
The aftermarket 302 blocks are roughly the same price as a sportsman 351. There is no replacement for displacement. But, if you're not planning on running over 600hp for a while, why not just get a stock 351 block and get your project rolling sooner? Then, when it's time to upgrade (and you have the money), sportsman time. As MadMan put it...boo yaa
don't get me wrong those block are the $hit but unless this car makes $$$$$$ or your keeping it 4ever why outlay the $$$$$. I KNOW I'M CHEAP...........AND FAST
I like the fact youhave a 4-4500.00 dart block is all you have as I'll have a short block done! with je pistons,forge crank sporting 434 cubes
Pffffht I don't have a Dart block. I have a good ole siamese bore 4blt main Motorsports Windsor beeyatch that I picked up fo' $1250....I got me some connections Beeyatch[8D]
