Hello my name is Sidney i own a ford XP deluxe sedan 1964. In it sits a 250 pre cross flow from an XB it also has a gas conversion. What i need is a good idea of what i need to make it cross flow and add a 2v head on it (if anyone has one for sale please tell me about it).I also have a c4 auto in it and would like to do abit to that. And for further down the track i need a front bench seat too. If anyone has anyinfo please email me at [email protected]

ok a pre x-flow is a non crossflow design,even the 250 2v head for them is a non x-flow design (both the exhaust and inlet manifol are on the same side).a crossflow head will not fit your engine due to it having a wider block.a 250 2v head is a great head

Hi Sidney, I don't want to sound like a complete heretic here but have you thought about purchasing a damaged EB or similar from the auctions and slotting in the 4 litre and trans out of that? It could potentially offer some serious power compared to mes

The 2v head is only different in that the inlet ports are larger, the exhaust valve is slightly larger, and the inlet manifold is a whole lot more efficient in allowing air to get into the cylinders. The standard head still has 2valves per cylinder.

The 2V basically stands for 2 Venturi (as in twin barrel carby. 4V is not 4 valve but Yep you guessed it 4 barrel or venturi) As already stated, these 2V heads also had larger valves and instead of an integrally cast inlet manifold, it has a separate one.

THE BEST OPTION IN MY OPNION THAT WOULDN'T SEND YA BROKE WOULD BE TO GET A 250 2V CROSS FLOW OUT OF AN XE TO XF AND FOR A LITTLE BIT EXTRA YOU COULD BOLT AN EFI ON (XF). THESE ENGINES ARE NOT VERY HARD TO FIND (I HAVE 8) AND ARN'T THAT TRICKY TO SWAP.

i have a 2v 250 in my xy. and have put thought into other engines but the 2v is rare (400 was one count) and it's pre-emissions meaning you have more options to play with.
sad news is that it's getting a bit tired andi was wondering if there is anybook
