The 200 cid Ford 4-cylinder for model A & B production was one of the largest 4-cylinder engines Ford ever made. This gives it a lot of potential. Rodders put various overhead valve conversions on them and got a lot of power out of them.

Ford tried the 9N tractor engine just before the war and at 119 cid it was a weakling for a pickup truck. It only lasted the one model year before they dropped that idea. Even a V8-60 would be hard pressed to equal what has been done with the 200 cid Ford 4.
