351- 451 9.750" SM BLOCK
Glad i gave up waiting years ago on that bs tb cleveland mess, Tim is a great guy for taking it over but that tb block project is screwed up, its been OVER! 10 f'in years now & theres still block casting problems & has gone sky high now in price. i still get mad thinking of getting involved with that tb block deal (6yrs & lost hundreds) regret ever logging on to the moronic 351C.unts gong show.
We really have needed a taller deck Wind/Clev block for a decade now, ever since the big stroker 4.100"/4.170"/4.250" cranks came out to deal with the crappy rod ratios/piston heights for big 100+" 451ci engs, especially for canted valve clevor eng builds... looks like SM stepped up to the plate with what looks like a new casting too boot!.
been wanting a True! extra 100ci 451 BOSS/CLEVOR 4V (square) ci eng that does NOT max out bore or stroke on the windsor block design keeping a Good rod ratio & piston height design for the 4V Boss head !Forever!, >
Ford Performance Solutions < is doing a (4X4/square) 451Clevor for me now using this raised deck 9.750" 351-451 SM Block...
4.155" bore x 4.155" stroke
6.450" rod = 1.55 rod ratio
1.225" flat top 12:1 nitrous piston
2x4 weiand T-ram / 950 xp carbs
400+cfm @.800 avg xtc-r clevor head
also for those that dont know, 351W blocks actually have a Better intake valve lifter bank angle for the canted valve heads (Clevors) worth just a few extra hp, better than even the 351C block itself for better high rpm control of the big/heavy 4V intake valves, Wind/42deg vs Clev/45deg.
