I was also of the understanding the "merc" engine was used in the Universal carrier and some Australian Blitz . |
That website is of US origin and does not relate to Canadian production!! While the US stopped making the V8 and concentrated on the 1GA six cylinder flathead, Canada continued making and evolving the V8.
The "Ford" engine (91A) was 221ci 85hp and was used in cars, Ford trucks (incl MCPs) and Universal Carriers.
The "Mercury" engine (99A) was 239ci 95hp and was used in all Blitzes (CMPs) and Aust LP Carriers.
