The only troublesome area in my opinion is...

between cylinders 7 & 8. However, even that is not that bad, especially if you are not racing, not making over 600HP and are using under 12:1 compression. This could lead to a warm running engline, but I doubt it as it is only one cylinder-to-cylinder interface. It certainly will not fail here in the configuration you plan on running. FYI, I generally want 0.120+" between cylinders, but would run 0.100" with a street engine. If they would have offset bored #7, you would have been perfect.

The major thrust faces look good, with only one measurement under 0.140". I look for 0.150+" here for race engines, but you are fine for a street engine.

Run it! You will not do much better with a Ford passenger car block.

Cheers,
Dan
