Hy evryone. Can anyone help me with some info. Been looking and can't find the outside overall dimensions of the ford 200 six cylinder engine. Need to know how long is the engine from the rear of the block to the end of he cranckshaft pulley. Also how tall from the bottom of the engine mount attachments, to the top of the valve cover and its width at the top of its head and intake and bottom of the block. Has someone mesured this engine before. Thanks for any info
I can't supply the info you need, even though I wore a couple of them slap out commuting in an OT Mustang, but at least I can give you a bump back up the line.
I have several, and I wish I had seen this before I left to run errands. One of them was to the machine shop, to drop off parts for the new 200 that is going into my Falcon. I won't see the car until the weekend. I can measure the current engine then, of nobody has come through, first. @need louvers ? might have one closer at-hand.
Hey Al, Gimpy's right, I do have one handy, but it's locked in the shop right now. I'll walk out first thing in the morning and measure it up an post for ya.
From the bell housing face to the tip of the water pump, 31" From the pan rail to the top of the oil fill tube, 17 1/2" Over all width with the fuel pump is about 13", with most of it concentrated to the p***enger side.
The 250 is a tall deck variant of the same basic engine, 1.6" taller, other dimensions similar, but it uses the small block V8 bell housing pattern. This opens up a lot of transmission choices if you have room for the bigger bell.
Quite honestly, I'd go this route if I were looking at the same swap. My neighbor has one that has a 302 Ford small block in it, and that actually fits very nicely. I am a BIG proponent of the Falcon six, LOVE them! but I have to admit its because I dig Falcons, and they are what most of them come with. i don't know that I'd search one out to swap into something, especially something that more conventional swaps abound for. Power can be made by these, but it takes some effort to get there.
I love them too! My EFI 200 is almost done. It should make as much torque as a 302. Why? Because I can.
