I posted a question a few days ago about a truck pan being compatible with a T-Bird and had my question answered nicely, Thank you Hoosier and Ted. Now I am wondering about the front timing cover from this 58 Ford truck fitting a T-Bird with the front mount.
I bought the engine mostly for the heads (471) and was also wondering when Ford drilled the main bosses deeper for more thread grip. This engine has been recently rebuilt with .060 pistons and the the hone marks are very visible with no ridge in the bore.
Also I more question, does the crank have any value,it's a .010-.010 crank but no lip on the back for the rear seal. Timing chain was still tight!
I paid $150 for it if I removed it so I got the bellhousing and clutch fork, etc. Still had single exhaust with crossover pipe.
I better quit asking questions and get this posted. Thanks for all the Y-Block guys out there that keep the Y-Block in competition with all the modern iron.
