It was used in many European Ford cars and was exported to the United States to be used in the Ford Pinto, a successful compact car of the 1970s, hence the name.
In Europe, the OHC was introduced in 1970 to replace the Essex V4 in the Mk.3 Ford Cortina ( Taunus). It was the first Ford engine to feature a belt-driven overhead camshaft (thus the name).
Applications:
The Pinto engine was available in displacementsEngine displacement is defined as the total volume of air/fuel mixture an engine can draw in during one complete engine cycle; it is normally stated in cubic inches, cubic centimeters, or litres. In a piston engine, this is the volume that is swept as the of 1.3 L, 1.6 L, 1.8 L and 2.0 L. Due to emission requirements it was phased out towards the end of the 1980sMillennia: 1st millennium 2nd millennium 3rd millennium Centuries: 19th century 20th century 21st century Decades: 1930s 1940s 1950s 1960s 1970s 1980s 1990s 2000s 2010s 2020s 2030s Years: 1980 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 Events and trends to be replaced by the CVH engine and DOHC engine , the latter being a twin-cam development of the Pinto unit. The 16-valve version of the DOHC unit is still used on the Ford Transit.
The 1.6 L (1592cc) OHC had a bore of 87.6mm and a stroke of 66mm. It produced 82 hp (61 kW) and 96 ft.lbf (130 Nm).
Applications:
The 2.0 L (1993cc) EAO was used in many vehicles from the early 1970s. Bore was 90.8mm and stroke was 77mm. Output was 110 hp (82 kW) and 119 ft.lbf (162 Nm).
Applications:
The Ford Pinto used the OHC version, a 2.3 L (2302cc) unit introduced in 1974 which has a 96mm bore and 79.5mm stroke. This version lasted until 1995 in various guises. The earliest units produced 88 hp (66 kW) and 118 ft.lbf (160 Nm).
In the 1980s, a turbocharged version (with .1mm less stroke) was used in the famous Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. Output for this version was 190 hp (142 kW) and 240 ft.lbs (325 Nm) for the 1987-88 model with the 5-speed manual transmission.
A dual-spark version (with two spark plugs per cylinder and distributorless ignition) was introduced in the 1989 Ford Ranger and 1991 Ford Mustang. This version produced 105 hp (78 kW) and 135 ft.lbf (183 Nm).
