Name on Heads
 

I was cleaning my shop out today and was looking at a pair of 49-53 Ford heads that I had .I remember removing them from my 53 flathead engine when I installed the Offenhauser alum.heads .The old heads have the name Ferro cast into them.Is this an after market head ? It says USA under the Ferro.The name Ferro also has a straight line through the center of it .Just curious .:confused:

If I am not mistaken, Ferro was a company that reproduced a lot of Ford parts, along with several other makes.

Thanks Lawson .The engine was rebuilt by Mustang Engine Rebuilders from Garland ,Texas.They might of installed the heads when they rebuilt it .
