    Engine compatibility?

    I looked in the ford repair manual before and saw that the stroke was the same. But have never had a 144 apart so wasn’t sure if the saddles and thrust were all the same. Thanks!! Do you know if the heads are interchangeable?

    Would not start, cranks fine. Pulled manifolds and noticed massive buildup in exhaust ports. Piston look good and very little carbon on tops, cylinder ridge is minimal. Looking at valve seals/ guides. Any information would be appreciated
