1965 Ford GT40 engine complete and ready for inspection.
Mathwall Engineering supplied 289 ci V8 motor to suit Mk I Ford GT40, but would also work in a Mk I or Mk II AC Cobra with different inlet manifold.
See- About Us | Mathwall Engineering Limited
This is a complete engine consisting of:-
1. Period 1965 six bolt C5/601AE block which has been bored +30 thou, crack tested and includes excellent original crankshaft, front cover, water pump and GT40 baffled/wide winged sump pan.
2. Pair of new/old stock 1965 iron GT40/hipo cylinder heads with large GT40 valves and are historic racing compliant.
3. GT40 flywheel with triple plate Borg & Beck clutch (good used). I can include a GT40 matching starter motor depending upon the offer received.
4. FAV GT40 inlet manifold (serial 1036) with quad Italian 48 IDA Webbers and aluminium turkey tray.
5. Set of eight new KP high performance +30 thou pistons, with matching piston rings sec
6. Set of eight new Craeur high performance connecting rods to suit above.
7. New/old stock mild race camshaft, new set of solid lifters and period push rods.
8. Rare period Ford XE crankshaft damper, Mallory distributor and pulleys.
The above is stripped for inspection, but will build to make a fully compliant pre-1966 motor to suit a Ford GT40 or AC Cobra. With original exhaust system, it will put out a standard 370 BHP, with the bonus that a number of the used parts have seen period action “back in the day”.
The engine was my spare for my GT40, but is now supplus to requirements and is located in Dorset, UK. I am looking for offers around £15k. Please call +44(0)1747854423 evenings or weekends.
