8BA going into ‘46 Mercury.
So folks, I have the engine out of the Merc and have an EBay cast iron bell housing for the 8ba.
Looks like I’ll need a 9 1/2 inch pressure plate for a 53 Ford and A nine inch disc for a 46 Merc. Is that right?
And F1 water pumps?
Any help and advice would be greatly welcomed.
I have not done this swap for at least sixty years. Don’t remember much about it, especially the clutch.
Thanks
