Hello together, I would like to start my new project soon. To be called: 73 Ford Capri with 351 V8. Actually I wanted to do it with a 460, but then decided for space, cost and weight reasons for a small block. Besides, I think that the car is then no longer mobile. I finally decided for a 351W. I would like to buy the engine a Edelbrock Top end kit. More (for the first time) not. Therefore a question to the Ford professionals here: Gives I’ve been on the road for a long time, but the statements are sometimes very different. Supposedly the 69-74s should be better, because you can install 4 Bolt main caps here. Since I want to buy a block with future potential, that would of course be the better choice. As I know myself, I am back on the Stroker trip or Turbo after a year Can I drive the series block with Top end kit at all, or is the crankshaft on the road at the first speed up? I am a car mechanic with 15 years of experience, have already overtaken some engines (usually 4 cylinders), but US V8ers are rather new. But don’t worry, I will get enough reading and get help with tricky things But first I need a clever base motor. Have a nice evening.
