    This image has been posted on the HAMB before and clearly shows the size difference between the big Lincoln V8 and the Ford Flathead.

    But if you just wany a 4-bolt flange asd bigger passages, look into Mercury...there are several versions '49-53, and at least most of the Canadian ones you'd have down there are aluminum.
