RE: What is it...FE

Where to begin...... To start, the FE is not a small block, regardless of cid. Rockers are shaft mounted and intake manifold forms part of the heads, so that pushrods pass through holes in the intake. FE predates the small block and came with a variety of cylinder head types, including the famous SOHC. There is virtually no interchange with other Ford V8 engines (428 CJ valvesprings fit 429/460!) and I believe FE stands for Foundry and Engine but I am sure there are differing opinions on that one! HTH
Cheers, Martin.
