AI caption · Photo 675 of 708

This document is a scanned exploded-view parts illustration from a Ford parts catalog, captioned "ENGINE CAMSHAFT, GEAR, BEARINGS and RELATED PARTS -- TYPICAL." It shows the camshaft assembly and its related components in exploded order: the camshaft (6250), camshaft bearings (6261, 6263, 6267, 6270), rear camshaft plug (6026), camshaft sprocket/gear (6256), washer/spacer (6278), thrust plate (6269), spacer (6265), and timing chain (6268). Standard hardware is identified by Ford service part numbers: bolt 20326-S (B-49), washer 34806-S (X-64), key/pin 373118-S (NN-54), and bolt 371643-S (BB-296). The illustration carries plate number P-2964. A reader can learn the Ford basic part group numbers used to order camshaft-related components, and how the pieces assemble relative to one another (chain and sprocket at the front, bearings spaced along the block, plug at the rear). The drawing is labeled "typical," meaning it represents the general arrangement across multiple engines rather than one specific engine. The uploader filed it as a 200 cubic-inch inline-six camshaft reference for a 1972 Ford Ranchero; the document itself states no year, model, or engine applicability.
