    Only the 3rd fire, still plenty of tuning to do but its my first flathead, I'm stoked, and wanted to post.
    Amazing what a few old 97s off the shelf can do.
    Specs are,
    59A 276
    L-100 cam
    Weiand Cheater Heads
    Eddie Meyer 2x2 w/97s
    '36 torque tubes

    Shot with my iPad, sorry for the focus trouble. Dark over here in Kansas.

    I kinda like the ambiance of a dark garage for the initial start up. Now drive it out into the daylight and show us some details.:D

    Sounds sick dude! Great throttle response ta boot!

    We have 2 things in common. Our love for Weiand Cheaters AND our love for mixed early ford wheels. I'm going to be running a similar combo on my '33
