Ford 2.3L C/6 1.740in Intake Valve

The Ford 2.3L C/6 1.740in Intake Valve by FERREA is a precision-engineered replacement component designed for high-performance engine rebuilds and restoration work on Ford 2300 powerplants. Built for users who demand reliability in competition, street, and light-duty applications, this intake valve serves as a critical part of the valvetrain system responsible for precisely metering the air-fuel mixture into the combustion chamber. Whether you're rebuilding a classic Ford engine or upgrading a tired stock configuration, this valve ensures consistent performance and longevity when paired with a quality rebuild protocol.

Machined from stainless steel, the Ford 2.3L intake valve features a 1.740-inch head diameter and an 11/32-inch valve stem, achieving a total length of 4.800 inches to ensure proper seating and clearance in the cylinder head. FERREA's 6000 Series represents premium valve technology with enhanced resistance to thermal stress, corrosion, and mechanical wear—critical factors in high-RPM and extended-use environments. The stainless construction resists carbon buildup and provides superior durability compared to standard OEM valves, making it the choice for serious engine builders who refuse to compromise on quality or longevity in critical engine components.

This intake valve is compatible exclusively with Ford 2300 engines and should be installed as part of a complete valvetrain service alongside new guides, seats, and quality gasket sets. Professional installation by a qualified machine shop or experienced rebuilder is strongly recommended to ensure proper valve clearance, seat geometry, and overall engine performance. FERREA valves are sold individually—determine your engine's total valve requirement before ordering to ensure a complete rebuild kit. This component represents the foundation of reliable top-end performance and should never be reused from a previous rebuild.
