Was told, when a lot of the 85 and 85+ h.p. were still common, that one year in the 1940 to 1948 period there was a casting manufacturing goof. Rather than scrap a lot of blocks, Ford turned them out with sleeves on one bank and not on the other bank.
In the early 60's, in a Denver suburb they raced 3/4 Midgets. The main sources of power were the Ford 60, Ferguson tractor engine and an Offanhauser (sp) engine. Am guessing a displacement max was the reason something bigger was not used.
I have the bare block from a 1937 60 h.p. in my iron pile.
