They're not an R block,but they're not junk either. I went with a Sportsman for my new 342 combo. You can definately see a difference compared to a stock block. We'll see what kinda numbers it'll hold up to. That's a good thread on the Mexican block. Alot of similarities to the Sportsman I might add.

^^In that thread someone mentioned that a sportsman block has gone 8's....I don't think a stock block has ever done that. Something must be better about it.
Eric I hope you have good luck with yours, I forgot you had one. When talking to some other builders and guys in the industry many have seen them split like a stocker when over 450RWHP. Hell youtr stock block took more then either one of Bills that we broke. E-mail me your phone number when you get a chance [email protected] let me know what a good time to call, don't want to wake the little one up.
For what ever reason Ford did not build the 302 sportsman as strong as the 351 sportsman.
