If there is one thing Ford enthusiasts have learned over the years, it’s
that deciphering which Ford parts work with which Ford engines is a far
more difficult task than with many 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
allnew update of a perennial best seller.
Thoroughly researched and, unlike previous editions, now focused
entirely on the small-block Windsor and Cleveland engine families, Ford
Small Block Engine Parts Interchange includes critical information on
Ford’s greatest small-block engines and goes into great detail on the
highly desirable high-performance hardware produced throughout the
1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. By combining some of the best parts from
various years, some great performance potential can be unlocked in ways
Ford never offered to the general public. Following the advice in Ford
Small-Block Engine Parts Interchange, these engine combinations can
become reality. You will find valuable information on cranks, blocks,
heads, cams, intakes, rods, pistons, and even accessories to guide you
through your project.
Author George Reid has once again done extensive research to accurately
deliver a thorough and complete collection of Ford small-block
information in this newly revised edition. Knowing what internal factory
engine parts can be used across the wide range of production Ford power
plants is invaluable to the hot rodder and swap meet/eBay shopper.
Whether building a stroker Cleveland or a hopped-up Windsor, this book
is an essential guide.
• Newly revised edition of a perennial best-seller
