I don't believe the World block has the 8.7 deck option. There are many reasons why your builder, and everyone else racing Fords, prefers the Dart.

Just to clarify some facts: We no longer offer the 8.7 block. There was absolutely no demand and castings are expensive.
Our iron block goes to 4.200 and the new aluminum goes to 4.155 allowing a 460 inch, 9.5 deck aluminum engine.
Wanna:Our 8.2 deck ranges from 302 to 371 inches. Although more expensive than your stated budget, here are the facts about our "World Class" line which offers 349 ci at 415HP or our 371 at 455HP. Study the "Build Sheet" to see that the cost comes from a bulletproof casting and very high quality components.

Of course if you want to dream about the "C", word we have the Cleveland Limited Edition which will annihilate your competition
and your stated budget. See it in my gallery or on our sites.
Good luck.
