52 F6 Question

I can't remember, did the 52 F6 have the 239 or the 337 Flathead V8 in it.

Thanks Rod

Rod,

If that F6 has a 337 that might be pretty neat huh?

Cheers,

Rick

I'm hoping it's the 239 8ba the 337 from what I understand is a red haired stepchild.

F6 engine

The F6 for 1952 has a 239 flattie when V8 equipped. I know because I have one I bought from the original owner, and it is a bone stock original truck. The shop manual for these trucks also indicates that. The 337 Lincoln motor was in the F7 and F8 trucks. I do know that sometimes the 337 was put in for more power by dealers, but it didn't take many years to where the Y-blocks took that over. Farmers on this side of the state used to do that repower thing pretty commonly.
