Any one see the ad for the new Windsor blocks from World Products in Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords. It's called the 351-R block. Sounds equal to the Dart blocks, but less money between $1400 - $1800.

I bet that block costs about the same as the Dart block. $1400 seems really cheap.
Who makes heads with the extra head bolts that are available on the block?
I really like the 4.200 max bore.
Build a 451 with a 4.185 bore and a 4.100 stroke.
Tell your friends its a 351

Just magazine ads and a blurb in MM&FF.
They show a photo of a clear "model" of the block.

Dick Maskins and Bill Mitchell split their partnership after deciding that they hate each other.
So now Dart and World Castings are seperate companies.
