Just dropped off my crank and rods at Klispiemotorsports.com in Hamburg NY. About 45 miles from me. Got a tour of the shop by the owner who is very familiar with the old ford fe.

Just a follow up. Got my block and crank back yesterday. Only took six months, this pandemic is a Hoot. Hey if anyone is in the area stop over to play. Thanks and happy Thanksgiving.
