Not sure what year, prior to 85. The postage to Canada might be too much. I was hoping to get $250 local pickup, I also have stock rods and crank.

It would, I have one here from a 79 F-150 still setup for flat tapet cam though and its not boiled or anything! You can get blocks here in Canada well in my area anyways for 250 bucks... Full engine including existing carb and all that crap, the HO motors are about 400-500.

Send me your e-mail and I will send you some pretty convincing evidence.

Want me to send ya the flow chart from my dad's ported e brock's? The heads were 1100 CAD and porting work was 400, I can assure you they flow more than any outa the box RHS heads. Not to be bais or anything but cheaper ported alum heads are always the answer compared to a outa the box flow setup. You have to agree with me here!

yeah i know, the only thing someone gains with mine is it is already cleaned up, and they save the cost of boreing and drilling and tapping for 1/2" head studs. I am really pretty much giving away eithe the block or the machine work. You never know when you get a salvage block, I got 3 lately, 1 we found a crack after it was boiled, 1 had water damage in the cylinder that did not machine out until .040, and the third one I had to pull it out of the car and tear it down myself. So someone might like the idea of getting one they already know is good and ready to go.

ok well the only thing wrong with the r302 block is that it is a race block and does not cool as well, i was looking into that and its not what i want, this is my DD car so it has to be built good but not get hot and stuff like that, and im dead set on trick flow tw heads unless someone comes out with something better before i build this motor. what crank do you suggest? thanks for the help

schwindty

Well that Trick Flow crank is a amazing unit but its amazingly expensive, I would go with Eagle they have a good name and are reasonable priced as well

And ANGECOBRA

Sooo true about trying to find a good block to work with, I am buddies with a guy that works at the wreckers so he picked me out a good one, but in my 88 GTA that i previosly owned I had bad luck finding a good chevy block to work with. Ford wins again! hahahah

Eagle is what my nobor uses he makes 572 to the tires so whats that about 600 at the crank? its a 5spd so i know they hold up.
