    Has anyone use the new boss block in the 347 combo? also have anyone heard of any problems with them. My stock 302 block held up for 54 passes and the number 2,3 and 4 main webs cracked which let the cam bearings move it lost some oil presure so I pulled it apart before it hurt any thing but the block.

    I have seen one of these in person and watched it being put together.
    360 CID

    Priceeeeeee, but sweet.

    I'm not a real big fan of Ford's aftermarket parts but this is a very well build block.

    If you are going to race your machine then you won't be sorry you got this block.
