NOS C1SZ-9448-E/F are available on the internet auction site if that helps... Not sure what your goal is?
Some Ford specialty dealers have items under your part number, but they probably are not NOS.

I'm curious what your books say the application for those parts are. C1SZ is a 61 Thunderbird number, and those cars came with 390's, not Y blocks.

I kinda had to chuckle a bit, when I googled your part number, Kevin, this old thread of yours popped up.

B8T-9448-A -> 575187
B8T-9448-A -> C3TE-9448-A
C3TE-9448-A -> FelPro MS95003 (FelPro would be aftermarket, not NOS)
Then just looking at generic y blocks, then the field opens wider, which is where I ended up with the C1SZ-9448-E/F, but now that I look harder, there are other options as well as the C2TZ-9448-A set, and others and I'm not exactly sure what the nuances/differences are and feel like I'm loosing the trail and I think some databases somehow divert over to the B8A-9448-A part number and that's odd too....
Apologies if I lead anyone astray, but I did find Kevin a package of Fel-Pro MS95003 ones that he deemed acceptable and which he has purchased.

They are no longer available anywhere. I just purchased one nos ford so I have an extra. I used to buy these for $35.09 a pair. I spent a lot more than that on the set I'm getting from the United Kingdom

How I got there was using my original Ford documentation and similar sources to trace through some part numbers:
B8T-9448-A -> 575187
B8T-9448-A -> C3TE-9448-A
C3TE-9448-A -> FelPro MS95003 (FelPro would be aftermarket, not NOS)
Then just looking at generic y blocks, then the field opens wider, which is where I ended up with the C1SZ-9448-E/F, but now that I look harder, there are other options as well as the C2TZ-9448-A set, and others and I'm not exactly sure what the nuances/differences are and feel like I'm loosing the trail and I think some databases somehow divert over to the B8A-9448-A part number and that's odd too....

the C3TE is a good number for me too as that is the number on the shields that used to come in the felpro package. go figure
