The lists are wrong, the books are wrong (some of our favorite FE books are really wrong), and those wrongs just keep getting perpetuated, replicated, and copied down as if gospel... but they are wrong. What's even more wrong than the casting numbers lists for FEs are the camshaft specs for FEs. There are even more errors on those lists because of Ford's use of engineering numbers that can look like parts numbers that can look like other numbers, coupled with letters like "Z" that can look like a "2", and then throw in the mix that durations are not always published for the same point of lift, and then don't bother mentioning what that lift was. ehhrrrgggg... Yes, and the always popular rumor that Ford actually used the same numbers on parts that they changed the specs for. OK, don't get me started -- just remember, the list you are looking at is wrong....  |
