347 shortblock-Central Coast Mustang

[carlp]

I am looking for current recomendations on where to purchase a 347 shortblock. I was about to get one from Central Coast Mustang, but I called today and their phone has been disconnected. Has anyone dealt with them? Do you think they are out of business or temporarliy unavailable?

Maybe try Coast High Performance - they've got
a good rep and are competitively priced from what
I've read

If you're looking for a 347, click the link in my sig and talk to the man Rick 91GT. He will build you what you want based on your goals, not what some internet sales guys says you need

i can show you cracked pistons from coast and messed up chit from DSS have someone build the engine for you , rick is a very very good choice

Yes Rick would be one I would go to

Now on the other hand with mass produced parts things are going to fail...even with expert engine builders. No need to down companies that have been in the business for years. Parts fail a lot of times due to user error. Ever think of that?

I have read good things about this rick guy. Also here is Coast's link http://www.coasthigh.com/Assemblies/Ford/ford_347.htm , if you can do it or have a builder the kit is on sale for $799. That is the kit I am running.

I was hoping someone woujld know more about Central Coast Mustang. It seems like they had been in business for quite some time. I am surprised that their phone is turned off.

correction-Central Coast makes the 342-they use new blocks
