Teksid blocks are NOT ferrari blocks, they are NOT made in the farrari plant. They were CAST by the same plant which ferrari used. Teksid blocks were used in 96-01 cobras. The only other modular 4.6 blocks ford used were Wap's and NVH blocks. Thats it.

I have a 99 Cobra Teksid block for my build and it is difference then my other (early cast 93-4 mark block) teksid sitting on the ground.

The Teksid Aluminum foundry you speak of is the Carmagnola plant in Turin, Italy. Teksid is owned by FIAT. They have, for many years, produced flawless castings for the likes of Ferarri, Lamborghini, Fiat, Ford, Chrysler, GM and Daewoo just to name a few. C'mon MustangChris! Get it together man!

GT - Former Teksid Alum. CAD Tech. - Dickson, TN plant. Yes, where your cyl. heads were cast & "cubed".
