Yes Bryan this was quite a surprise very unexpected. Fortunately I had a pocket of cash as it was a one and done deal.
You are asking/replying to a thread from 2014. You may know that.
Picked up 50ish NOS Ford flathead cams this week that will grow into KiWi-L100 camshafts. [ATTACH]
Many v/60 midgets have a crank driven water pump. So unfortunately your suggestion wouldn’t work.
Wicked pic.
I have rebuilt or new pressure plates & new clutch discs. Message me if you still need. Cheers. Tony
Rust911 works great
Patience & perseverance pays off. Well done Bryan. Your Columbia left my house a week ago. Cheers.

So sad. Such a loss. Prayers to the family and friends.
So if this is a Flathead Superdual. Intake height or intake period has nothing to do with oil pump.
Get the shorter pushrod that matches the intake.
Flywheel weight? Search for the old Ford “Cobra” dual plane intake. If it’s legal. Way better than a performer.
If it has stock 1936 starter switch on floor it is NOT ground activated but a hot switch.
