New at Summit Racing: World Products Man O' War Small Ford Engine Blocks

Attention Blue Oval fans: World Products has just unleashed the completely revised Man O’ War engine blocks for small block Ford. Your dreams of big cubic inch small blocks can now come true.

The Man O’ War is available in two deck heights. The 8.200 inch deck block is a direct replacement for 5.0L Mustangs and is compatible with OEM heads and exhaust systems. The 9.500 inch deck block works with all 351 Windsor-style components. Both employ Siamese cylinder bores with thick walls, allowing you to safely bore a block to 4.200 inches. In fact, the 9.500 inch deck block can be bored and stroked to 454 cubic inches if you so desire (and you do).

The Man O’ War blocks are cast from extra strong nodular iron. The main bearing webs are thicker on the new blocks (the front by 0.080 inch, the center three by 0.030 inch) and the main cap fasteners were upgraded from 1/2 to 7/16 inch to increase block rigidity. The bottoms of the cylinder barrels extend down into the crankcase by 0.500 inch. This provides superior piston support when using a long-stroke crankshaft; the short deck blocks are clearanced for 3.500 inch stroke cranks, and the tall deck blocks can accommodate a 4.250 inch stroke crank.

Other features of the Man O’ War blocks include:
• Four-bolt billet steel or nodular iron main caps with ARP fasteners
• Revised oiling system delivers oil to the main bearings first, ensuring reliable lubrication at high rpm
• Larger diameter main oil gallery and oil filter to main gallery passage for better main bearing lubrication
• Accommodates OEM style 10-bolt and aftermarket 18-bolt cylinder heads
• Bores semi-finished to 0.005 inch undersize to accommodate 4 and 4.125 inch pistons
• One-piece rear main seal
