Default Cooling system.

I cant find my book. What is the capacity of the cooling system of a 1950 Ford?
Is there a difference between the 6 cylinder and V-8? Thanks in advance.

The V-8 capacity is 19.2 quarts, 20.3 with heater.
The 6 capacity is 16 quarts, 17 with heater.

Thanks Ken for the quick response. Did you mean quarts for the V-8 ?

Sorry! Yes, quarts. 20 gallons would be pricey.
