Wasn't sure where this thread fit, so I put it here in General Discussion.

I found the best description of Ford casting numbers I've ever seen, and thought I'd share the page with you guys.

hey... now I don't have to look in my Dennis Carpenter catalog.

 

Thanks Mike

I already have those in my head.

What do you think of this page?

Dennis.Why aren't charts like this posted in stickys at the top of the tech forums.would't they be a big help in figuring out part numbers,you know for like a quick reference for a beginner like me?Have you tried that in the past?

 

Here's a couple more:

Because we used to then stopped doing it.

Besides, It gives me an opportunity to make a contribution to a thread when there is a short break in administrative duties.

I don't get much of an opportunity to answer Tech questions anymore,,,,,,,,,I
mean my post count (not that it matters) is down .

Barry ....Don't you think that one page looks like he copied the one I psosted but changed the background colour?

 

Dennis, afaict everybody copies each other on this stuff.

Funny thing is I think the hammar page (Mustang Mike) was first before Mr. F's. I've had that bookmarked for quite a few years.
