I didn't think they made side oilers after 67.

Karl,

Thanks for the clarification. I'm new having just acquired my car in August and on a steep learning curve. Someone told me side-oilers were only produced between 65-67. It wasn't the first and won't be the last time I get wrong info. Info about these FE big blocks is getting murky.

Default Side Oiler Block Manufacturing Dates

I have a 1971 side oiler "High Nickel" block. Ford continued to enhance and manufacture these blocks through 1971 as "Replacement"/or "Service" Blocks. I bought this block 4 years ago, still in the origional Ford box/pallet. Jack Tarner, (Tulsa OK.) just built me a standard bore, stroked unit including ported Edelbrock aluminum heads, 1968 "Tunnel Port" (2 four barrel) entake. The motor is now in a 1965 "Cyclone". If it doesn't live up to Mercury standards, I'll put it in my cobra. I had David Kee build a new top-loader and added a Gear Vendors overdrive so I can enjoy the 4:11's in town and relax with 3:25's on the highway. Please find picture attached.

Do you have a special tailshaft for the Gear Vendors? I understand to put that setup in a Cobra would require a special tailshaft because of the driveshaft length. A GV unit would be a sweet ticket in a Cobra.

Hi Gary,
The application uses your stock tail shaft. Gearvendors provides a new aluminum cone. I had to cut about 11 inches off my drive shaft and this would be sweet in a street Cobra. In fact they sent everything needed to make the application. If you look at the picture attached to my previous post, you can see the unit adds very little length to the drive train. Send me your email address and I will send you several better pictures of my application. srharrison1000@aol.com
