What is this? Looks like ford got this one all screwed up? What is it?

Any one know?

From the side view it appears to be a 351/400M ,but I have never seen anything with the casting for large and small bell housing.

I like the York, on board air is always nice, other then that I cant help you...

You got me. Whats its supposed to be? one of those maybe late production SB 400's? Maybe they ran out of small 400 blocks and modifed some of the big 400 blocks.

That's one of them original hybred motors. Half small block, half big block.

There's a sticker on the valve cover still... can you decipher it? Any date codes to go by? Is there still a tag on the carb?
