Shafiroff Engines ??

[jarhead]

I assume more of you guys know of them due to Chevy than Ford.

I am looking for opinions on quality, workmanship, etc.

I am thinking about buying their deluxe short-block, which runs 6K plus shipping.

When I spoke with them I was told my aluminum Windsor SR heads and this package would net 600 hp, and 525 foot pounds torque

And this long block

I have read the 408 Windsor will hold up longer due to it's bore and stroke geometry.
