I need to know if anyone has done any builds with the SHP block.I'm try to get some info for a 331 or 347 build to replace the stock block I'm running now. I've been lucky with the stock block but it's maxed out and has issues.I want to run a sportsman or boss block but now I'm leaning towards the SHP. I'll be making just over 600hp at the crank and it sounds like the right application for my street/strip pump gas car. There just doesn't seem to be any info out there on them.

This thread was moved to the general discussion forum, as it was posted in the Chevy forum but appears to be a question about Ford SHP assemblies. I've provided a bit of info about both...
The Ford build up articles haven't arrived yet, but here's some info for you. The first two concern the SBC stuff, the third one has some info on the Ford SHP stuff.
Here is a link to a forum write up on a build PowerTV did with the SBC SHP block:

Here's a link to an article about an SBC build-up that we did for Hot Rod Magazine recently:

Here is a PDF download for the spec sheet that covers the Ford Sportsman block used in the SHP engine kits, and also on the Ford engine kits themselves:

If you need more info you should give us a call here, I can have someone in the SHP department talk to you about Ford builds they have done recently.

He appears to have been inquiring about the Ford SHP assemblies, which use our Ford Sportsman block. The only SHP style block we make is an SBC at this point, but we do offer SHP engine assemblies and top end kits for SBC, BBC and SBF.
