    Those turds will usually run pretty easily but look between thevalves for cracks in the block, those are the killer cracks.

    Nice car. I noticed you're flying a Bowtie flag. If the flat head doesn't do it for you . Do what I did....350 SBC w/ 700R4. Cruises nicely around 80

    nope staying with a flatty!!! :cool:
     
  24. Right on HotRodSurfer - keep her all Ford flathead! Always will be a solid choice to keep it period - these great 40s cars are great looking unchopped.

    Great project
