Ford 240 and 300 engine blocks from 1965 to 1983 are the same and our side plate fits. Engines from 1984 onwards the side plate is narrower and our side cover wont fit. We are working on tooling for the later side plate. Also if running Harland Sharp roller rockers 25mm of the inner cone style breather needs to be machined off.
