Thanks Craig...Yep, I'm going the traditional crank/rods/piston route so really the cost between the various kits is minor...My concern was really with the block being a late model block. This block, by the way, has never been in a vehicle....still covered with that greasy waxy crap that ford puts on new blocks. Standard bore, standard hone marks etc.....seems silly not to use it.

Why would you go for the 3.75 crank in preferance to the 3.85 cranks.

Thanks again mate...appreciate the advice
