Re: You Opinions Please!
Lets keep the thread to 67 thru 72,late model modular 5.4's and 01 Expeditions are a bore to me. My point is historically Chevys are prefered for personal light duty use, where Fords are more preferred for truck work, where top speed and handling are not as important factors.Here are some facts. Sorry my camera aint that great, but this photo shows a 327 Chevy block and a 330 Ford block. Chevy crank is level with the bottom of block, Ford extend 2.66" below crank center line. Distance between cylinders is .402" on Chevy and .759" on Ford. Exhaust valve ports are alternated on Ford to minimzie heat concentration, Chevy has exhaust ports adjacent to each other which builds heat concentration on middle of cylinder head.
