About This Piece

The Ford 3 Valve V8 Engine Internals Table celebrates a unique chapter in Ford's modular engine evolution. By adding a third valve to each cylinder - two intake and one exhaust - Ford significantly improved engine breathing, power output, and efficiency. This table showcases the complex valvetrain required to operate three valves per cylinder across eight cylinders, creating a visually intricate display of mechanical choreography. The additional valve springs, rocker arms, and camshaft lobes add layers of complexity that make this table particularly engaging for those who appreciate sophisticated engine technology and Ford's innovative approach to performance enhancement.
