Commander,

I agree about his not knowing 9.2" was the deck height of the 351 Cleveland, that is a little surprising.

On the other hand, the Ford name is nothing more than that. 95% of the parts in the Ford Racing catalog are made by outside suppliers who stamp the Ford name on them and then ship them to Ford for sale. In many cases, you can buy the same part with the manufacturers name on it for less.

I don't know who is casting those blocks for them, but I would be willing to bet it is an outside supplier.

Kevin
