Did Ford make a 260 V8?

Yes, Ford did make a 260 V8 engine. The Ford 260 Windsor was introduced in mid-1962 and was placed in Ford models such as the Falcon and the Mercury Comet. It is a slight modification of the Ford 221 Windsor, with more compression and bore, resulting in increased horsepower and torque. The 260 was standardized in most full-size Ford sedans in 1963 and was even featured in early models of the legendary 1964 Ford Mustang. Special editions of the Ford Falcon, Mercury Comet, and AC Cobra cars with the 260 engine could reach 260 horsepower at 5800 rpm and a torque of 269 at 4800 rpm. Production of the 260 ended by 1964 as Ford introduced the Ford 289 V8.
Here are the engine specifications for the 1962-1963 Ford 260 Windsor with a 2-Barrel Carb:
– Max Brake Horsepower: 164 @ 4400 rpm
– Max Torque: 258 @ 2200 rpm
– Stroke: 2.87
– Bore: 3.8
– Compression: 8.8
– Firing Order: 15426378.
While the 260 V8 engine is considered a good engine, if you are looking for more power, you can replace it with a 289/302/5.0 engine, as they have more performance-oriented parts.
