Is it 40 over fresh out of the machine shop?

NOOB Here yes, but not to the mustang world lol


The mexican blocks had more material in the block and slightly stronger for that reason. Its basically and original SVO-B50 sportsman block but without provision for roller lifters. Some say they are 25% stronger, some say less. Unfortunately, the cylinder walls are just as thin, if not thinner, than the late model blocks. That means, that 30 over bore in just about the limit on them. After that, you'll have to have it checked, and IF its still good, you'll be paying triple for some crazy odd over-sized pistons or have to have the block sleeved. After all that, you might as well get a different block, or go dart/frpp/world because it'll cost $1000 plus for just the short block at that point.

Nothing wrong with a 40 over Mexican block.... I have a 60 over Mexican block in my car. I've had no problems with temps or anything. I think I've seen the block jon has and from what I remember it was in good shape.

So cool it noob bruh bruh.
