★ These cylinder head bolts are manufactured from high-quality high-tensile steel and rigorously tested for strength — a reliable choice for your engine restoration.
Application
Early Ford GPW jeeps up to engine number 242994. Later in production, Ford switched to stud-and-nut configuration. Check your engine number to establish the correct variant.
Installation notes
Cylinder head bolts must be tightened evenly and in the correct sequence with a torque wrench. Recommended torque: 65-70 lb/ft for bolts. Use sealant on the threads of bolts that reach into the water jacket. Check cylinder head surface and bolt holes for pitting corrosion before assembly.
Compatibility
Only for early Ford GPW with bolt configuration (up to engine number 242994). Not suitable for later GPW with stud configuration. Willys MB used a different bolt pattern — these F-marked bolts are specific to Ford GPW.
Historical context
Ford marked many components with the distinctive script-F logo, including cylinder head bolts on early GPW production. Around engine number 242994, Ford switched to a stud-and-nut system for the cylinder head.
