eBay Motors: Ford 289 HO High Output Mustang 302 351 Engine Block (item 300179797983 end time Dec-10-07 19:51:27 PST)
The casting is listed as "C5AE-8O15E" which should be -6015E (6 not 8 & zero, not O) for a HiPo, but that could be a misreading by seller. But calling it a "Hi Output" instead of "Hi Po", refusing to give rod and crank nrs., and the lack of bids makes me suspicious. Also, didn't the Hi Po block have screw in plugs in the rear oil galleys, instead of press-ins like this one?
Can an old school engine member shed some light on this please before I bid on a potential boat anchor?
