i believe thats what im lookn for. im assuming u know with u running a 91' block. are those out of mustangs only? can i find those in trucks as well?
thank you!

89-92 blocks have forged pistons, yes. also the block itself has a high nickel content making it stronger. I've seen 650 hp on stock short blocks.

650??? outta my leauge bro. but thanks for the info. the machinist says hes got one for basically the cost of the work. the next one if it aint the 351 i got in the garage is gonna be ne of those. split that hole in 4 spots. ( i saw only 2 at first). never done that before. keep my eye out for a wreck i guess.....
