Default Ford 352 push rod motor??

I tried some research on past posts about this combo but all the links are dead. Is it available as an assembled crate engine? If not is there a parts list available? Seems like an economical way to get back in class racing with a reliable low maintenance piece. I would be looking to put it in an older car for FGT\? In Super stock. Either a 67 Fairlane or a 73 Mustang Anyone have any thoughts or who is the go to? I know Dick Lux ran this in his Comet (rip) looks like the Halls put one in their 68 mustang.
Thanks for any help.

Division 6 S/S 6035 Jerry Pruitt has had great success with this combination..You might want to message him on this forum

Two very different combos, Jerry Pruitt is running a '64 352 FE type motor, Lux was running a Windsor type Factory GT combo. Not to say that they aren't both good combos in their own ways but two very different deals. Regarding the 352 Windsor motor combo, it is not a crate motor and I think you will find that getting the head castings might be a problem.

I am currently having one built by Chris Holbrook. 1967 Mustang and will fit in FGT/H,I J. The parts list is on the Class racer link. Boss 302 block, Z304d heads, EFI intake and 4 hole throttle body. It is 347 stroker with bigger bore.

I spoke to Rusty Hall in Baytown, they have the motor out of Dick Lux’s car in theirs.

The Cobra Jet 352 is a good combination. RJ and i built a car from scratch and i am in the process of building a 95 Mustang Super stock with the 352 CJ. The GT weight breaks have changed so the car can move around to many more classes. Nick Morris, Neal Rhodes and John Stock i believe are running this engine.

It's a decent combination but hard to overcome the 360 Drag Pak and the 130# weight difference.
