Ford 289 Long Block Engine Assembly PDF Print E-mail

When building a strip or street car, many of our customers prefer a Ford small block to power their vehicle. A Proformance Unlimited Ford 289 long block engine is a low cost alternative to a stock rebuild. We recommend this Ford long block to our customers looking for a low maintenance, moderate horsepower motor that will be used in their daily driven vehicles.

Our Ford 289 long block motor begins with a seasoned six bolt SBF block and a cast iron precision ground micro polished crankshaft. When using Ford cast iron cylinder heads our 289 long block is rated at 300 horsepower. If you are looking for even more horsepower then opt to use Dart Performance Pro One aluminum heads and take your long block motor to 350 horsepower.

From custom painted engine blocks to our exclusive March Performance serpentine belt system, Proformance Unlimited can supply you with the long block motor that you have dreamed of and others fear! With over 50 years of shop experience, you can rest assured that we are here to help design and build the engine combination that best suits your vehicles needs. Unlike our competition, we stand by our long block engines with a one year, unlimited mile warranty.
