How to Rebuild Big-Block Ford Engines How to Rebuild Big-Block Ford Engines
351C, 351M, 400, 429 and 460 cid Engines
by Charles Morris
In the late 1960s, Ford released a new engine called the 385
series, also known as Lima big-block and it was available in 429
and 460 cubic inch versions. The high-compression 4-barrel
versions, called Cobra Jet or Super Cobra Jet, are some of the most
powerful engines Ford has ever produced. An engine similar in
design to the Lima series engine, the legendary 351 Cleveland
made its debut in 1970. While technically a small-block in many
ways, its oval ports, canted heads, and physical size made people
think of it more as a “mid”-block than a small-block. The 351 and
400 cubic inch versions (the latter known as “M” series engines) of the
Cleveland engine were used in passenger car applications and in
light trucks starting in 1975. The M stood for “modified,” as the deck
height, bearing sizes, as well as pistons and connecting rods were
modified for low-compression passenger car and light truck use, and
they were used all the way through the early 1980s. All three
engines are covered in full detail in this rebuilding volume. It includes
step-by-step heavily illustrated instructions that walk you through the
entire process of rebuilding your Ford engine. If you want to breathe
new life into your tired old Ford engine, this is the book for you.
