That assumes they're smart enough to realize it's the same firing order. They have to be able to convert the Chevy numbering scheme to that of the Ford.

...In that case:



Didn't those Chevy fools steal the firing order from the tried and true Y-Block, because they had to admit it was superior?

Only when the scrub camshaft has the 4X7 swap.   This is worth a few horsepower on both the small and big block scrub engines.

Here’s a past discussion on firing orders.

Isn't the Y firing order the same as the BB chevy?

The Y-Block firing order is the same as the original Flat head V-8. It's likely that the later engineering group chose the regular Windsor firing order (unfortunately) because G.M.'s SBC engine was using it.

I always assumed the reason that Ford changed the order was that it made more sense with the staggered exhaust ports and stacked intake ports, but not so much with even exhaust and intake like the Windsor.

I think the 5.0 Cammer will be a nice modern engine to swap into an older ride.
