Y-Block I.D.?

Well, I finally got the numbers from the Mercury 312 that was given to me for the F-350/Wrecker project.

I.D.# is B7AC-292 (Guess its not a 312)

Also, it is a Fred Jones reman unit. The F.J. I.D.# is 432668.

Above the Ford I.D. is 2 Ford 73 (Year of rebuild?)

It does have Mercury valve covers and is painted a lime-green color.

Lastly, below the Ford I.D.# is .60 Bore, .20 Mains and .20 rods.

Thanks in advance for the help and, by the is their a fairly simple formula to figure the displacement with the .60 overbore?

3.14 (pi) X Radius ( half the bore) X Radius X Stroke X 8 (number of cylinders) = Cu in.

Example; 3.14 X 1.875 X 1.875 X 3.30 X 8= 291.43 or 292 cu in.

Your .060 over 292 would be 301 cu in.

Y-Blockhead,

Thanks for the help and realizing that I meant .060, rather than .60. I posted the same thing on another forum and learned quickly that our beloved Y-Blocks weren't quite capable of being over-bored by more than one-half inch!
