bobss396 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) That engine should be a 223, used in trucks and cars up through 1964. Then the 240, a different design was used. The 300 followed in trucks. I believe that one of the Moebius Ford trucks has a 6, if it was 1964 or earlier it should be a 223. VCG Resins has a nice 240/300, I'm using a performance one in a stock car. He may have a stock one, look at Iceman too. Edit: This is the stock 240/300 VCG Resins kit. Sold out, but close to what you want. I would just sand the valve cover smooth. https://www.vcgresins.com/shop/p/ford240300i6stockenginekit Edited April 9 by bobss396 vdgdgfh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodent Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 The 223 and 240 look nothing alike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
