Well apparently Ford did a hell of a job advertising it.....

all i know is that its a 302ci displacement capable of supporting up to like 360ci or something like that. Its got siamesed cylinder bores, 4 bolt main caps that are splayed and its suppost to be as strong as a Dart block but supposedly without the cooling issues they have. Ive never heard of cooling issues with a Dart block, but thats just me. I looked it up on google and it retails around $1750. Not bad. It also said they're basing all their new crate engines off them.

Well, does anyone out there have any first hand experience with one? Seen one? Bought one?
