i knew it was a 4-something engine i saw one when i was just out of high school. my instructor was friends with one of the guys who built one. he had one on an engine stand and when he fired it up you could feel the power. this was right after high school and many years ago you can still buy the engine if you have very, very deep pockets

There have been, and continue to be all kinds of backyard machinists and mechanics doing all kinds of things that the factory never did. If you poke around here with the guys that like the 300-6's there's all kinds of rumours of guys adapting Windsor and LS heads to the 300 for various reasons. They might even work, although I really haven't seen many of them run.

Yet I've been blasted several times for taking the 302 out of my 94 F150 and replacing it with a 351...with a light cam...GT40S....and best of all,replacing the computerized fuel injection with a high rise intake and 800 Edelbrock with MSD ignition

What does that have to do with anything? You just felt the need to toss that in here for some reason?
