F marked block

Post by byrdman1312 »

:?: A guy I know in AL. called me today looking for a f marked engine block. He said it was for a 1962 Willys Jeep. I'm not that much of an authority on the Jeep, but I always tought the f marked parts were for the GPW, made by Ford (in the 40's) I wonder if he was talking about a Ford built M 151. I'll check back to see what model he is working on. Anybody got any thoughts about what he needs or where he can find a f marked block in the vicinity of Birmingham, AL.?
Many thanks !!!!!!!

You're correct. The "F" Ford mark is for the GP, GPA and GPW's built by Ford 1941 thru 45. He probably thinks the same program was on for the M151. He should get in touch with Chuck Watford who can steer him to their Alabama Branch of the MVPA.
