Hi Rick, the short answer is an XF is a Ford Flathead V8 which has inherent gasflow and power limitations due to the porting and side-valves. An XO is generally a GMC OHV Six which has more favorable gasflow and more natural power potential, fuel for fuel, etc. That's why they were put in different classes. /// /// land-speed@autox.team.net mailing list /// To unsubscribe send a plain text message to majordomo@autox.team.net /// with nothing in it but /// /// unsubscribe land-speed /// /// |
