Andy,

If you are looking for a four bolt main, you better concentrate on
Chevy's. The Ford Boss 302 had them, and this is a great engine, first
introduced in 1969. BUT, there is practically nothing that fits a Boss
but Boss parts. They are rare, and expensive and were discontinued by
Ford in 1970/71. The early block C90ZE casting had a cylinder wall
cracking problem, so you'd want the C8FE casting block, which was
intended for racing, but put into production to solve this serious
problem. The '70 D0ZE incorporated these changes. There are some
available in the web-sites, but they are dear, and every part is unique.
