it may have been, but if the engine was built up from scratch they could have used a cam with any firing order (i think there were 3 different stock ford configurations) and still used either style c

The engine designation change from 302 cubic inches to 5.0 litres was made at the same time (1979 model year) as the firing order and engine balance changes. So when you're building or rebuilding an

Jerry has given you the best information. Here is some information I have but I can't confirm total accuracy. 5.0L counterweight change to 50 oz in 1985. Early crankshafts are marked 1M on the front

I left out some information here: The 1 part number on the balancer I have a reference to shows E4TE-6316-A3A. This is a 5.0L, 50 oz balancer part number. Ron Fraser ________________________________

Has the 28 0z. crank been rebalanced to 50 oz.? Does anyone on the Tiger list know if that is possible and if yes, what to look for, or if it was it done incorrectly? You may want to call an engine
