Thank you, I thought this might be a "W" configuration block.
That explains it; I only know Ferrari & Chevrolet engines well.It’s a 302 Windsor block
A bit late for a reply but come to think of it, these vents look very similar to those used in my Mk3 Saracen, might just need to repurpose some!!More bits arrived. Someone must have been feeding the rocking horses.
I had a set of the later vents with the knob in the centre, but got lucky and found some original early MK IV ball vents. The rubber rings from the later ones have a foam liner which feels a bit tight on the early vent. I need to check if they are different sizes.
would be good to see what the early rubber rings are like.

What Ford/Mercury are those tail lights from?.These arrived last night in the post/dhl.
They are noticeably heavy, this is an unmodified one, straight of a donor car, still has a couple of the mounting nuts, gaskets, globes and wires on it.
This may have been the reason why they moved away from the Ford/Mercury lights. For comparison, below is a NOS/Reproduction Fiat 750 light, with globes and globe holders and wire tales. same as the Mercury one but this is a combined brake and indicator, not just a single brake light. So it probably saves 1kg or 2 LBS of the car weight.
Time to hunt down some of the other parts. still trying to work out what some of the other bits are.
