Editing Ford Kent engine (section)

==Pre-Crossflow==
The original OHV three main-bearing Kent engine appeared in the 1959 [[Ford Anglia|Anglia]] with a capacity of {{cvt|996.7|cc|L|1|order=flip}} developing {{cvt|39|bhp|0}} at 5,000&nbsp;rpm — unusually high for the time. With an {{cvt|80.96x48.41|mm|in|2}} bore and stroke, combined with independent (non-siamesed) four intake and four exhaust ports, it was a departure from traditional [[undersquare]] English engine design.

The same engine, with its bore unchanged, but with longer {{cvt|65|and|72.75|mm|in|2}} stroke and thus larger capacities were subsequently used in the [[Ford Consul Classic]] ({{cvt|1339|cc|L|1|order=flip}}) and [[Ford Consul Capri|Consul Capri]] ({{cvt|1339|and|1498|cc|L|1|order=flip}} - the latter with five main bearings), the Mk1 and early Mk2 [[Ford Cortina|Cortina]]s ({{cvt|58.2|mm|in|2}} stroke {{cvt|1198|cc|L|1|order=flip}} {{cvt|63|mm|in|2}} stroke five main bearing {{cvt|1297|and|1498|cc|L|1|order=flip}}), and the early [[Ford Corsair|Corsair]]s.

In addition to its '[[over-square]]' cylinder dimensions, a further unusual feature of the Kent engine at its introduction was an externally mounted combined oil filter/pump unit designed to facilitate low-cost production and easy maintenance.<ref name=Drive198503>{{cite magazine|title = TimeMachines: Little belter: Ford Anglia 1959–1967|magazine=Drive (Magazine of the British [[The Automobile Association|Automobile Association]])| volume = 116| pages =18–19|date = March 1985 }}</ref>

The engine is now referred to as the pre-crossflow Kent, in [[reverse-flow cylinder head]] configuration with both the inlet and exhaust being on the same side of the head.
