Hi. If it was factory fit the engine number should match the chassis number and it should have a 5 bolt bellhousing and a generator as I doubt that ford engineers would source the late 64 motor for a car that had a run from 61 to 65. Cheers MD

Don't the MK1 Cortinas have an engine code ?
Try http://www.cortina-mk1.com/identify.php, and others I'm sure. Never ever heard of a V8 Mk1 Cortina factory approved (someone can prove me wrong I'm sure). There were some Mk2 Cortina Savage (approved?) conversions, with an Essex V6 3lt IIRC. |

Mk1 Cortina was never fitted with a V8 from the factory. They had 1200, 1500 and Lotus Twin cam.
