Thumbs up

Phanton, what up neighbor! I rarely find other Massachusetts guys in here. I have a few tips for you before you start building this motor. I have had two different 5.0 Mustangs and I used both nitrous and superchargers on them. I never broke any of these engines, but I know if you want to make 500 hp or more, start with an A4, R302 or the new Sportsman 302 block. They're rated for over 650 hp, so it should be the last block you'll need to buy. After all, if you're going to spend big money on a crank, rods and pistons and put it in a "crack prone" stock block, you're wasting your money.
