Multiply that by 6.57, then subtract the area around the driveshaft. Plug that into the equation 2x-y= 35 then take the derivative of the sum total. Last, figure out what gears you have and divide that into the total.

If it is the stock motor and its a V-8 it is a 292ci Y-block. THe easiest way to ID these motors is that unlike everother ford motor the distributor is in the back of the motor. Check out <a href="http://www.ford-y-block.com." target="_blank">www.ford-y-block.com.</a> It is probably a pain to find parts for but I think the 312ci verson came in T-birds at one time, so they were performance motors at some time. If that 352 has anything to do with the displacement it might be a 352ci FE motor, the easy way to ID an FE motor is where the intake manifold and cylinder head meet. If they meet under the valve cover then you have an FE but if the valve cover is more conventional (i.e. only covers the head an the intake manifold is separate) than it probably is the 292ci Y-block. I'd like to hear what you find.<br /><br />The 351's (clevelands and windsors) and the 385 series motors(429-460) didnt come out until the late 1960's. Hope this helps<br /> <br /> <small>[ August 13, 2002, 05:30 PM: Message edited by: Jimbo ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
