Ford 302 questions
I'm in the process of building a new motor for a 1989 Mustang and wanted to know is it worth looking for the below Cylinder Head? If so does anyone have any leads on finding them as I have tried searching the net with no luck. I think I have a lead on one head at a cylinder remanufacturing company but that is all at this time.
F1ZZ-B Also is there any difference in the below intake manifolds? E7ZE-CB Aluminum Upper E8ZE-EA Aluminum Upper F0ZE-AA Aluminum Upper |

Re: Ford 302 questions
Buy them, try them, put them on a shelf. With the cast ones that's how it worked.

Re: Ford 302 questions
I looked into this part# quite a long time ago and had one of my Ford dealer try to track it down....the F1ZZ-B wasn't a valid number for a 302 head and didn't exist. The only legal head I know of available is the E7TE in stock.

I’d love to see a picture showing these beads actually exist.. I’ve spent years looking talked to many ford contacts and have never found the number to be legit. At one point the only feasible suggestion was that they were used as a replacement only head at the dealerships at one point.. which made no sense. To me it might have been a paperwork number that was never cast on an actual cylinder head.. we gave up on attempting to find them and went another direction.. So I’d love to see an actual picture showing me that number was cast into a head and I didn’t totally waste those years looking haha |

Re: Ford 302 questions
So,
I too , have poked around in search of these heads, and heard some of the same stories as mentioned here. Just now I checked the online NHRA tech sheets and they list the head no longer as the F1ZZ (as the alternative to the E7 head) , but rather as the F1ZE-B. What head is this ? lol ! This must be a recent change as it is highlighted yellow. PM's Welcomed

Re: Ford 302 questions
The fourth position in a Ford casting is a "group" ID. Z is factory replacement and E is "engine group" (original part).
F1ZZ and F1ZE should be the same head. F - '90s 1 - 1st year of 90's Z - Mustang '91 Mustang cylinder head. This might help. https://www.enginelabs.com/engine-te...sting-numbers/

Re: Ford 302 questions
Ok ,,, Looks like the part # F1ZZ-6049- B does exist as found in the
Obsolete - Supercede - Interchange Manual FPS 7632-5 January 1994 http://www.fordpartswiki.com/getpage?pageid=158340 http://www.fordpartswiki.com/getpage?pageid=158516 appears to be the superseded part # for a 87 and a 90 truck head, E7, and F0, and given a Mustang designation as F1ZZ-B . Curious to know what it looks like, NHRA tech sheets has the casting # as F1ZE- B , however, I don't see any published runner volumes , valve sizes, chambers, etc...
