The worst decade for Ford with regards to cavitation was the 1980s. By the late 80s, they had recognized the problem and set
out to correct the issue in the early 90s with the Genesis blocks. The fix was to shorten and stiffen the water jackets.
To the best of my knowledge, Ford Tractor has never used the Bosch fuel system, and certainly not common rail systems. In the
1980s, the fuel system was largely the same as it was in the 60s and 70s, so I would not lay the blame for cavitation on fuel
systems.
