This is a great thread! up till now I thought I was very alone in the clevor world. Mine is in a 1970 Boss 302 and was built back in 1995 befor there were any reasonable cranks, blocks, heads etc, for Ford applications. Sure Fontana was there, Ford Motorsport was there but trying to pack the word "reasonable" into the cost factor was difficult for me at best. So I wanted more cubes for my Boss and being a Boss it had to have some sort of Windsor block and Cleveland type heads. My twisted view of things made me build this:

BLOCK
1969 Windsor block +30
1969 windsor crank stroked to 3.64"
Dodge 340 rods narrowed at both ends (machine shop said this was a *****! lol)
Boss 302 pistons TRW L2324F +30
Displacement = 371.44 ci I just call it 372 and had 70 Boss stripes made to match!

HEADS
1970 351 Cleveland
Intake ports filled, contoured and raised to replicate c302 ports
2.19" Stainless Manley intake valves
Flowed @ 335 cfm @ .800"
Exhaust ports smoothed and contoured
1.705" Stainless Manley exhaust valves
Flowed 212 cfm @.800" with no turbulence (apparently a problem with some Cleveland heads)
Crane double coils on all valves with stainless retainers
Crane 1.73 roller rockers
Compession ratio 11.20

Intake FMS 9424A351 Matches the redone intake ports great

Pushrods, custom 8.800 x 3/8 hardened for guide plates

Carb was a Holly 3 bbl 950cfm (that's right I said a 3bbl) now have a Race Demon 1050 (haven't tried that puppy out yet though)

All this and it's still a work in progress! LOL
