	Driving Today: Ford V8
		Henry Ford pointed the way to a V-8, but the Ford engineering staff of Ray Laird, Emil Zoerlein and Carl Schultz took the concept much farther than their boss would have imagined (or authorized, for that matter.) Starting at ground zero they designed a 221 cubic inch powerplant that delivered 65 horsepower at 3400 rpm.
		Ford survived the war by becoming a big part of the military effort, but during the war Edsel Ford died and a rapidly aging Henry Ford did little to prepare the company for peacetime prosperity.
		Just as Ford seemed to be fading away, a dramatic restyling of the car line in 1949, accompanied by a thorough revamp of the flathead V-8, saved the company from oblivion.

	Wikipedia - Ford Yamaha V8 Engine
		Now at 4.4 L, the V8 engine is unique in Ford's wide range of V8 engines in that it is designed for transverse use and has a V6-like 60° bank angle.
		SHO V8 The V8 SHO appeared in spring of 1996.
		The cam sprockets were fastened to the hollow camshafts by forcing a metal ball which was slightly larger than the interior diameter of the camshaft through the center of the camshaft, thus expanding the metal slightly and creating a mechanical bond between the cam sprocket and the camshaft.

	Ford Flathead engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ford flatheads are still hot rodded today, with a special land speed record class for flathead engines.
		Ford's final flathead was the 1948-1953 239/255 in³ (4.2 L) The 255 was achieved by use of a 4 inch stroke crankshaft in the Mercury engines, producing 125 hp and making the merc crank a popular upgrade for hot rodders.
		While earlier Ford V8s had the distributor driven directly from the forward end of the camshaft, and so at an inconvenient location for maintenance, this final flathead used a right angle gear drive from the camshaft, placing the distributor atop the engine near the front and so readily accessible.

	Ford Yamaha V8 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SHO V8 The V8 SHO appeared in spring of 1996.
		Ford manufactured the aluminum engine blocks, using a patented Cosworth process, at their Windsor, Ontario plant, then shipped them to Japan for finishing by Yamaha.
		The cam sprockets were fastened to the hollow camshafts by forcing a metal ball which was slightly larger than the interior diameter of the camshaft through the center of the camshaft, thus expanding the metal slightly and creating a mechanical bond between the cam sprocket and the camshaft.

	Ford Mustang - Wikicars
		The 1995 Cobra R used a 5.8L V8 with GT-40 induction and a flat tappet camshaft, and was conservatively rated at 300-hp.
		Since the car was never meant to have a V8, it became a mad scramble to reengineer the car in order to reinstate the 302 in³ (5.0L) V8 option in time for the 1975 model year.
		Ford intentionally underrated the Boss 429 for advantages both in racing as well as insurability at 375 hp (280 kW) and 450 ft·lbf (610 N•m) of torque.

	Ford Mustang
		Ford's Mustang was conceived in full knowledge that in the mid-'60s the biggest population bubble in history was coming of age in America.
		Ford's response to that competition was a new, slightly larger Mustang with an all-new body over what was pretty much the same chassis.
		The disappointingly low-output rating of the V8 made many suspect that the '93 5.0's down-rating to 205 horsepower was done in a relatively shallow attempt to mitigate any outcry resulting from the squashed intake's stealing power from the '94 5.0-liter.

	Ford Model B and Ford Model 18 (Ford V8)
		Ford then used the Model B as the basis for another car, and for the first time since the companies inception Ford had two models on offer.
		The compact Flathead V8 power plant, with its down draft carburetor, enabled the 1932 Ford to outperform all other popular competitors and was 20 years ahead of its time.
		So popular was the V8 engine that the days of the 4 cylinder Model B were numbered, and 1934 would be the last year that a 4 would be manufactured, it being fitted to a Victoria body style.

	The Ford V8 “Flathead”
		Henry Ford needed another blockbuster success to regain the company’s position and compete with the burgeoning General Motors.
		But it was a huge success at the grassroots levels and, because it could be easily improved for racing with modifications, the V8 flathead became another bonanza for aftermarket parts suppliers.
		And on California’s dry lakes, the Ford V8 was a mainstay in the growth of hot-rodding, which has evolved into today’s NHRA drag racing.

		The Ford Small Block V8 Not to be outdone for Chevy by long, Ford introduced its 260 V8 in 1963.
		The Ford Small Block becomes a particularly attractive option when one considers that it is readily compatible with the Ford T18 and Ford NP435 heavy-duty four-speed transmissions - popular gearboxes for swapping into Jeeps of all eras.
		The biggest problem with the Ford V8 is that the engine is longer than the Chevy V8 which is a problem on CJ's up through 1971.

	Ford Ranger, Bronco II V8 conversions kits, transmission adapters, motor mounts, radiator
		5.0L V8 (Fuel Injected 302): On '86 and newer 2.9L V6 equipped trucks, swapping in the 215 hp 5.0L is similar to the 4.0L swap, in that you'll need to take the engine control computer and engine wiring loom from the donor vehicle.
		The original Bronco II and Ranger transmissions are too weak to withstand V8 power, and must be swapped for a heavier duty transmission.
		In these vehicles, a V8 torque converter and bellhousing can be installed on the C5, though we suggest buying a stronger C4 originally used with a V8.
