Default Re: flathead to ohv engine swap

This thread is about the Y-blocks. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=270366

The front cross member can be a problem for front sump engines. Both Y-blocks and Windsor SBF had pans that may solve that problem. Flatheads mount on the sides of the water pumps and later Ford engines mostly mount on the sides of the block unless they were truck applications. Some truck applications stick out a bit far on the Y-blocks.

Anything can be done but there is no bolt in other than a flathead V8.
