Description

The 408 Ford is an excellent choice for those looking for a Windsor based stroker engine to fit in place of an existing 351. The additional stroke provides a boost in power along with better throttle response, acceleration, and overall performance. Features forged pistons, hydraulic roller camshaft, and aluminum heads.

Our Ford Small Block Crate Engines are an homage to 1969, a year of aggressive modernization at Ford.

Ford’s 302, 351 Windsor, and 351 Cleveland motors were created to meet the needs of intermediate and pony car lines. We took those designs and engineered our Ford Small Block engines as the perfect turn-key option for Mustangs and other classic Ford models. They deliver the coveted 427 cubic inches available in the Windsor and Cleveland platforms for big power in a small package. Our custom Ford Small Blocks are a Prestige Motorsports specialty and our most popular builds.

HOT ROD SERIES

Ready to get serious with your hot rod, cruiser, or daily driver? The engines in our Hot Rod Series will upgrade your ride with a custom-machined factory OEM block, plus a hydraulic roller cam and lifters, forged pistons, a stroker crankshaft, forged steel rods, competition valve job, and an arrangement of top-quality internal components. These street-serious motors are perfect for cruising, car shows, and even a little bracket racing. They’re not intended for boost or nitrous.

NOTE: Some engine listings may show similar items or optional products and are not included in final price.

DYNO





DYNO TESTING
Dyno testing not included in long block price. Here at Prestige Motorsports, our “Dyno Promise” means that we dyno test every engine we build to verify the quality of our work, the integrity of each component, and the reliability of every engine we construct. Then, we deliver the dyno results for your project directly to you, the customer. Hours for dyno testing will be calculated with the purchase of the fuel and ignition group per engine order.

Engines will produce +/- 2% of advertised power at the flywheel. Advertised power levels are achieved using an electric water pump and specific induction and exhaust systems. Power will vary after pulley systems are installed or if changes are made to the induction or exhaust system (e.g. camshaft, cylinder head, compression, intake manifold, exhaust headers, air filters, etc.). Chassis dyno results measure power at the wheels and only calculate flywheel horsepower. Wheel horsepower is affected by a variety of vehicle-specific criteria including driveline design, body and chassis flex, air intake location, etc. Therefore, calculating flywheel horsepower from wheel horsepower is not an accurate representation of actual flywheel horsepower.

WARRANTY

Prestige Motorsports offers a limited warranty on engines for a period of 1 or 3 years with unlimited mileage. Our warranty covers the base engine from the intake manifold to the oil pan. Add-on accessories such as ignition components, fuel delivery systems, pulley kits, and belt-driven components are covered by their manufacturer’s warranty only.

ENGINE WARRANTY OUTLINE
Upon receiving your engine, you are required to register your engine for a warranty. The form is included in the paperwork you receive with the engine. Fill out the form and return in the mail to our physical address, or you may email it to sales@prestigemoto.com. You can also download the form HERE.

If you experience any issues or concerns with your engine, you MUST contact us before any work or diagnostics are performed. We will discuss the concern and give you specific direction on the next steps. If we feel the engine needs teardown for further assessment or repair, the customer is responsible for any time and labor costs of preparing the engine for shipping including removal from vehicle and packaging fees. Prestige Motorsports will arrange pick-up of the engine and cover the cost for delivery back to Prestige Motorsports.

Prestige Motorsports will perform a thorough assessment of the engine and determine the root cause of the concern. If the root cause is determined to be a component failure or assembly error, Prestige Motorsports will repair or replace the engine, retest, and deliver back to the customer at no charge.

If the root cause is determined to be the result of improper use or inflicted by an outside source, customer or otherwise (common examples, not an exhaustive list, of root causes that are not covered under warranty, include overheating, incorrect ignition timing, incorrect air/fuel ratios, use of power-adders, over-revving, and incorrect oil level), the customer will be invoiced for delivery charges incurred by Prestige Motorsports for retrieving the engine, as well as a tear-down and assessment labor time.

Prestige Motorsports will also provide an estimate for parts and labor to repair or replace the engine, including the cost of delivery back to the customer. The customer then has the option to approve the recommended repairs or retrieve the engine in its current state from Prestige Motorsports.

Ultimately the engine will tell the story. Prestige Motorsports keeps detailed records of root cause analysis which may include photos or videos if the customer has questions about the results. However, it is at the sole professional discretion of Prestige Motorsports as to the root cause of failure.
