What is the deal with these blocks (the 351C blocks cast in Australia)? I have heard both ways... some say they are great, other say they are flawed... I know absolutely NOTHING about them... anyone?

You might ask the guys at the Fordsix site. There are alot of Aussie guys there. http://www.fordsix.com

The Aussie engineers lifted the 351c design with thicker cylinder walls to prevent core shift & cracked piston walls. They were produced here from '70 till the mid 80's & had a reputation for being able to handle a lot of punishment.
