Hi Guido. I believe the engine you purchased from Chapman was not a Ford 289. I believe that was the one and only V8 casted and built by De Tomaso for the Can Am project with Chapman. Pete Coltrin documented the project very well for Road & Track. The block design was very close to the 289 (on which it was based), but it was a full De Tomaso design (I have some blue prints of it). Do you know where the engine is now?
