Does anyone have any tech info on these they can share. I have done the google thing and found lots of pics and blah blah. But what I want to know is what they did with the essex to make more power. Not having much luck with the stroker root. so this is phase two.

Have you tried looking into into road tests of the real cars sometimes they discuss what they have done - Next time you are in Wellington look up the following magazine references of publications i have indexed from National Library of NZ on Molesworth St that is very near the Wellington Railway Station a block or two away (I indexed most of British publications to the late 80s and 90s)

they are tests - April 1971 Motorsport (GB) page 338-339

25 Feb 1971 Autocar (GB) Page 28-30

18 April 1973 Page 20-22

Now I sure Practical Classics magazine (who would be a good contact via their forum) often do Engine tech & DIY Clinics on motors and I seem to remember one of the Ford 3.0 Essex Engine but i tried to find where i filed it unfer (database is that big..)-opps i have found it January 2002 Practical Classics (GB) Part 1 engine clinic (not documented y myself yet ...I inherited Weltec early collection a few years back that i still working through) and part 2 is Feb 2002 page 138-141 - -Practical Classics is held at Wellington Public Library main city one on Victoria Street - I seem to remember your Library ib CHCH may have them too

let me know how you go

Otherwise i would suggest Fast Ford Magazine of the UK

The now defunct and hard to find (no Library in NZ got it) Feb 1970 Car & Car Conversions (GB) did a preview and tech analysis of the car and its engine (sorry i do no have a copy myself in my collection of rare mags)
