Re: 8BA cam position
Not knowing anything about the specifications of the motor when it was built. I assumed it was a plain Jane stock Ford 8BA 239cu in. The previous owner had a single 94 carb and a stock distributor. I was pleased when I measured the stroke on the crank, it's a 4inch Merc. I can see the stamp on the camshaft it's an 8CM.
Rods are 8BA.
M-19 oil pump.
The cylinder bore measured 3-1/4"
Pleasantly surprised.
