This book shows you how to interchange parts between Ford V8 engines. You'll see interchange for cylinder heads, blocks, connecting rods, pistons, cranks, cams, valve gear, carburetors and fuel injection, ignition, exhaust, and cooling. It's far more than just a list of numbers; Reid explains the differences between engines, and gives you tips on evaluating parts, deciding when to modify parts, and choosing when to go with factory parts and when to go with aftermarket ones. You'll find factory casting numbers (one of the few places you can find Ford casting numbers), an engine ID tag decoder, and specifications for engines and their parts. This updated edition includes over 360 black and white photos and charts.
Deciphering which Ford parts work with which Ford engines is a far more difficult task than with other engine families. Will Cleveland heads fit on my Windsor block? Can I build a stroker engine with factory parts? Can I gain compression by using older-model cylinder heads, and will it restrict flow? Is there a difference between Windsor 2-barrel and 4-barrel heads? These are just a few examples of common questions Ford fans have. These and many other questions are examined in this perennial best seller.
Thoroughly researched and, unlike previous editions, now focused entirely on the small-block Windsor and Cleveland engine families, this book goes into detail on the desirable high-performance hardware produced throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. By combining some of the best parts from various years, great performance potential can be unlocked in ways Ford never offered to the public. Whether building a stroker Cleveland or a hopped-up Windsor, this book is an essential guide. The book is in BAND NEW CONDITION! Buy now to own the best engine parts interchange manual for your Ford!
