I had my 351w block built as a 418 by Coast high performance. This was 16 years ago and it is as good as new today. They can custom make the pistons for any head and compression. I had them install my cam. If you can install the heads etc and degree the cam a short block this is a great way to go. Ford Short Block - Ford 418 Short Block, 351 Windsor Flat Top.

I can tell you my personal experience. My dipstick shot out so hard that it broke when it hit my hood no joke, and he falsely blamed everything but his work. Crap happens, but his unwillingness to stand behind it, is what defines woody. Challenge him on anything and you’ll see the real woody
Is this the same Woody that used to make long tube headers for mustang applications?

are you referring to FPA headers in Seattle?
From my experience Stan at FPA is a stand up guy. This Woody sounds like the guy I bought long tube headers from ~ 12+ years ago. I bought $$$ headers from him for an easy drop in 351w manual steering setup. They fit terrible needed to reposition 5 tubes, he was a jerk and said I had to pay for it and the recoating.
