- Use a new Boss 302 Block from Ford racing
- Use a new DART or World Products block (Iron or Aluminum)

Is this correct ... are there other options ?

Thanks.
You can also still find excellent Mexican blocks with the higher nickle content and thicker main caps. Great block and Morg has one for sale.
