Ihave an aluminum block with 6 bolt main (4 bolt main caps and then side bolts) but i dont know if it is for a 2V or a 4V. is there a way i can tell by looking at where the timing cover bolts up or another way to tell?

 

what kind of car is it....

 

its a block i bought on ebay and i know that it is a windsor and my plans are to build a stroked supercharged cobra engine and put it in a mustang GT

 

all aluminum blocks are 4v

 

4v owns all

 

are you sure all aluminum blocks are 4v? cuz ive seen on some sites such as vtengines.com a production replacement 4.6L SOHC aluminum block.

 

my 07 has an aluminum block

 

your 07 is a 3v. and thepre 05's the 2v blocks were iron. the 4v blocks were aluminum. now pre 4.6 idk.but i would think you would be able to tell if it was a 4.6 or 5.0

 

They made 4.6 aluminum 2 valves that were put in explorers

 

i thought they went to an iron block in 03???
