RE: Fairlane Engine |

For all the guys that believe FE stands for fairlane engine keep in mind ford did not segregate models of the same car line.In 1958 Ford div. only produced two lines of passenger car ,Ford& Thunderbird, with many different models ie. custom,fairlane,skyliner,ranch wagon,but they all still fell into the same product line,Ford,later when the Falcon and Fairlane lines came out they also got seperate models, Falcon Futura, Fairlane 500,but they all still fell into their respective product lines ie.Ford ,Falcon, Fairlane,and the part numbering system Ford uses reflects that.In 1958 the 332&352 engines were not restricted to the Fairlane but were available in both lines of the Ford Div. cars and some models of the Edsel Div.,they were not available in the Mercury Div. or the Lincoln Div. who had their own engine.No offense to Jim Dove but in this instance he is mistaken. |
