So, today I paid my two bucks and took a stroll through the local U Pull and Pay. What do I find nestled inside an old Ford XL? C9OE-6015-BB. Seriously tempted to go yank that puppy, put it on a stand, and rebuild as time allows. 225.00 is a little rich for my cheap ass though. Decisions decisions.
Whataya guys think?

Re: 1969 351W
Recently built one for the sons 70 Cougar. Went with it because it was correct for the car. For the Bronco I would wait and get a roller to build. Dollars will be about the same but better base in my opinion.
Nothing real special about it other than what some say is better metal/nickle in the block. What does that mean to you for your use... nothing in my opinion. But I am making assumptions of your needs based on what I would want for myself.
