I am now looking for a new block. I removed the engine and tore it down only to fine it had aluminum heads and intake. The intake is no big woop but the heads are strange. I have discussed this with some old mechanics and they say no way, ford did not make aluminum heads . You can get aftermarket offenhouser etc heads. This engine has aluminum heads definately . Can anyone shed any light on this the head are stamped "made in canada"
