Guest rallyman Posted July 3, 2006 Report Posted July 3, 2006 can anyone help me. I have a 1997 2.3 ford galaxy 16v engine code Y5B and i need a cylinder head for it. Can anyone tell me if the Scorpio 2.3 16v head fit my Galaxy. Thanks J Quote
Andrew T Posted July 3, 2006 Report Posted July 3, 2006 Replacement Ford Petrol engines have been covered a couple of times and the concensus was that there are enough differences between those fitted in the RWD Sierra and Scorpio to make them impossible to fit in the Galaxy. I can't say if those differences extend to the cylinder head. Quote

sepulchrave Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 I have to say that I seriously doubt that there are any physical differences in the head castings, why would Fraud change it? FWD or RWD have absolutely no bearing on head design whatsoever. Go for it I say. Quote
