Ford 289 Hi-Po / 302 Mexican main caps Shelby GT350 Cobra .Here is a complete set of matching original 302 Mexican 289 Hi-Po main caps .
The 289 Hi -Po that was used in so many high performance Ford cars during the 60’s had special heavy duty main caps that were installed on the block. These caps were a full width thickness of approx.1” as opposed to a thinner tapered cap that was used on conventional 289 and 302 blocks. Ford re used these caps after the end of the 289 Hi-Po production on the 302 Mexican block. It is called Mexican because they were cast in Mexico. The caps were physically identical and will work in either application. These are the heavy duty Mexican caps .Itis a complete matching sets ready to install on your block to recreate a 289 Hi-Po or Mexican HD block. Original 289 Hi-Po caps can sell for as much 1500.00 and if you need a set don’t pass these up. Winner pays actual shipping cost. Good luck bidding! |
