Actually Walt....

There were never any literature about high nickel in Fords back when they were produced and you are confusing nodularity with nickel and the two have nothing to do with each other. In the late 60's there was a high phosphorus block but the Ford documents on metalurgy are quite clear and have been posted numerous times. Ford did not use nickel as a strengthening agent. When Ford did play with hardening blocks, they usually used chromium but these were unusual and were made for specific purposes not production runs. There were definitely high nodularity products but that has nothing to do with nickel. Hawkrod
