Hi!

Do you know ANY website about putting the engine together? Especially the cam, timing gears etc. i don´t remember the place or right order for all bits & pieces... :? i know i should´ve taken lots of pics when tearing it down, but i didn´t :x anyone have photos? the heart is a -65 200cid
 
Try the library! The 200 was in a quite a few vehicles, so they may have a haynes or chiltons, which is better than nothing.
I got a 5-volume '78 Ford shop manual off ebay for cheap, so it can pay off to check there regularly.
And used bookstores!
 
If you do buy something on ebay and they don't want to ship to Finland, have them send it to me and I'll be happy to fill out the forms so you can get your hands on what you need!

This might have what you need: http://www.alldatadiy.com/index.html

also, go to www.autozone.com and click on "repair info" and then "vehicle specifications" and then "internal engine" or "specifications"

Don't you have a shop manual?

hard to get those in finland... :(

Not so hard at all. The shop manuals are readily available from places like California Mustang and others that are very common sources for parts to Finland. I'd say most parts importers here can sell the manuals. Then there is the book store Alfamer (specialized in books for everything 'mobile'), where those should also be available. Not necessary in stock but available with some delivery time.

Ford Shop manual for your car is a very good investment, highly recommended. Forget the Haynes and others at this point, they do have some additional info but keep the Shop Manual as the primary source of info. Buy the real deal first.

Jackfish: These are not available in librarys here. Books regarding American cars or engine techniques can be carried away from a library by one hand...

I know where exactly there is a Shop Manual currently 'idle', on what hard drive there are tens of pics of two buildups, and where you could get help building it up. You know it too.
