    I have two of the tin sided V8 60's. One came out of a truck and the other a car. The difference is the water outlets on the tin. Car engine had 90 elbows and truck had straight fittings.
    Cool little motors.

    Yes, I have heard about metal plate brazed cylinder blocks and crankcases on some V8 60's.

    I have a 37 tin-side....apparently they originally had a problem with core shifts when they were cast...so they cast them without the sides and later arc welded stainless steel sides on to the cast iron blocks...

    My father owned a 1953 French Ford, with a modified version of the model 60 flathead, the car in question was a Ford comete, they used a standard '60', (2.2ltr).. and a bored and stroked version which was 23?? Cc...... we ended up replacing it with a larger version, as 30yrs ago in England there was very little knowledge let alone people rebuilding such engines, the internet has made everything more accessible, if it was now we could ship the motor to the states for rebuilding...... there's now a very well respected flathead engine rebuilders about 10 miles from home..... typically!!

    V8-60 started in 1935 in France.
    U.S. Market did not see it till 1937.
    The Early '37s are "Tin Side" which is actually Stainless Steel Stamped Sheets welded to the Cast Iron casting.
    There are only 2 versions of the V860.
    '37 (part # 52)
    '40 (part # 92)
    There are 4 blocks.
    37 Tin Side (casted in 36 and done because of core shift during casting).
    37 All Cast.
    40 All Cast
    40 "Service Block" looks like a 37.
    Ford sold the 60 to SIMCA and they used it till the late 50s. Chrysler bought controlling interest in SIMCA and took it to Brazil and made the "Emi Sul" which looks like a 60 with ARDUN heads into the late 60s.

    Henry Ford wanted an engine to sell to the European market. it needed to be a smaller h.p. to sell in their market. The "tin side" was a very expensive nickel alloy that shines up like a mirror.

    I bought a 1939 Ford Flathead 60 hp V8 that I am considering using in a vintage car. What would you recommend I use to increase HP & torque (but using parts not newer than 1953)? I have been trying to find a good manual(s) for the 60 HP as well (so far without success. Any recommendations?

      Joe Riolo I think I heard they planned on selling them in Britain.
      Over there they are taxed on engine displacement?

    • @alanhardman2447
      @alanhardman2447 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Henry didn't like sixes, because they never sold well or performed well for him - and the V8 was his "tour de force" that's STILL a huge part of his legacy.

    OMG i never realized just how tiny the flat head v8 was! That or you're one tall dude.

      The 60 horse is smaller than the 85 horse engine.

      ford made other versions such as the 21 stud flathead from 32-38, the 24 stud from 39-48 and the "8ba" type from 49-53
