Well, I'm sure the folks making parts (such as heads, gaskets, etc) do, but it might be difficult to get them to part with the information. There was a guy who posted on the Barn a few years back that was working on a 3-D model of a flathead engine. He might have that information but don't remember what name he posted under (it was Flysafe, but his last login to the Barn was in Aug 2015). If there is a real desire to have the data, take a head or block or whatever to a shop with the digital equipment to measure the positions. For quick and dirty use a head and transfer punches to mark locations.

The Ford archives should have the original head/block drawings.
