Default HiPo 289 question

Found some Ford parts today and included was A 289 engine with four barrell aluminum intake with Ford on the front and also had dome tops and A dual point dist. Are these engines worth much and what about the intake? The Guy said it was either A 66 or 67 engine and parts.

Tommy all I can tell you about Fords is don't put one in your signature! They don't like that in these here parts! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

You may want to check with some "Ford" web sites but it could be some good "Trading material" to a Ford-Nut who has some Big block chevy parts that he does't need! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

I mostly look for Chevy parts but occasionally find other stuff with the job I have. This was included in A truckload of parts I was looking into. Appreciate the reply though.

If it is a hipo motor,it will have a C4 or a C5 number at the start of the part #. A hipo will have bigger rod cap bolts[it will take a 9/16 wrench to fit them.They are worth a little $$.If it has the correct heads,it will have the # 18,19, or 20 on the corner of the head..let me know if you still have it.
