Never done one, but whatever you do keep it under 500HP those little windsor blocks seem to be OK up till 500HP then at 501 they split in half.

Not really but it seems that way, plenty of literature on high horsepower 5.0 windsor builds breaking. I have probably seen 30 pictures of separated blocks.

If you pursue this please keep us updated that is a cool path.



This is false info. Lots of people have made a lot more power than 500hp on a stock block. It's all in the tune. Will they last? Probably not, but guys have raced them for entire seasons making over 500hp with the right tune.
