If your talking 2.8° nose up, that is fine (bloody near perfect), helps with purging
air bubbles from cyl heads cooling jackets.

I think he might be of the impression that the block is a rare item, the heads were fairly common being fitted to most Hi-Po 289's which were OE on several Ford cars as well as an over counter option for others.
