Ford 221 Engine Parts

The Ford 221 is the 221 cubic inch, 3.6 litre petrol inline six with pushrod overhead valves, carburetted and naturally aspirated. It went into the XT and XW Falcon, 1968 to 1970. The tags here run XA to XF because the 221ci six shares its 93.5mm bore with the 3.3 litre 200 and 4.1 litre 250 of those cars.We stock 13 parts for the 221.

Bearings for the 221 six

A TDC main bearing set for the 188, 200 and 221. An ACL Race conrod set covers the 144 through to the 250 and the 4.0 litre sixes. Six and V8 listings share the 221 number here, so check the title says Windsor before ordering a bearing set for a Falcon six.

Rings, gaskets and timing gear

An NVP 1mm oversize ring set shared with the 200 and 250, cast or alloy head. A Permaseal lower gasket set for the 188 and 221 and a crankshaft timing gear. The Ford 221 six runs a timing chain, not a belt, and the gear is its crank sprocket.

ACL Race and TDC main and conrod bearing sets, a Morse timing chain and a carburettor era timing case cover gasket. All are for the 221, 260, 289 and 302 Windsor, a V8 that shares only the number with the six.
