Ford 429 block need advice
Hello All,
My cousin is currently building a 68 Pro-Street Couger.
I would guess he is about 60% completed.
He has basically spared no expense on this build up.
Me being a Chevy guy, and him being a Ford guy adds spice to our family relationship to say the least:D
He has built a 429 into a 521 stroker, Put an tunnel ran with dual carbs etc. etc.
The only thing is his block is a 2 bolt main.
Now I'm no Ford expert or no motor guru, but is this going to work?
I mean I think his 521 is supposed to be good for 800-850 hp.
What is the HP limit on a 2 bolt main 429 block?
And what is a good block to replace it with?
He is hard headed so if I say that many Ford Hot Rodders suggest this he might do it.
