From th eford web site:
The 2.2-million square-foot plant has more than 1,600 employees that produce an average of 2,900 engines per day and nearly 800,000 engines per year. Originally the Ford-Romeo Equipment Plant, the plant was built in 1966, and at that time the plant assembled tractor components. By 1983, the plant produced 300 tractors per day.
In 1987, the plant was converted to building Ford’s new modern family of modular overhead cam engines. In 1990, the first 4.6-liter modular engine was produced for the new 1990 Lincoln Town Car, which was named Motor Trend “Car of the Year.”
