Ford makes a 2.75" spacer kit for the Windsor block. Last time I checked it cost $80. You have to have the block line bored after the kit is installed. Around here that cost about $150 to $250.

Thanks Dwight.

If it was just a thicker main bearing shell, it shouldn't need line bored. It sounds like the spacer kit is a modification of the block, and then you use a standard 351C bearing insert. Correct?
