Flathead Rebuilder in SoCal Needed

I forgot to mention he did a nailhead too (and numerious sbc,sbf over the years for my old customers), know him for about 15 years and a nice guy.

 

Tony Baron..818-389-0769...builds, machines, blocks heads etc. for land speed cars that are flat powered..look at ours on scta web site..tell him jack and clarence told u to give him a yell.

 

You might be interested to know that Bob McKray does the head work for Chrisman.

 

red and white 200inch wheelbase injected flat power ran on record 2nd time out at bonneville, was going to el mirage to try and do better but the lake got flooded...number on coupe is 2468..get it? Tony is a instructor for ford let alone a older fart who has been around.

 

and DID the head finishing work for the "old" hot heads people.

 

Sorry to hear that about Joe. His shop on Cherry Ave. is now a motorcycle/jetski dealer. He moved to Signal Hill and I don't know if he even has the machinery anymore. I had a 59a block decked, aline-bored with steel main cap and two 4" Merc cranks off-set ground for 21A connecting rods over 25 years ago. His wife was running the shop was the last I had heard. Glad he is still with us!

 

yeah 8 sleeves is lotsa dough id be looking for a better block...

 

H AND H WILL TELL YOU WHAT THE COSTS ARE BEFORE YOU START. THEY HAVE A PRICE LIST PUBLISHED SOME PLACE. MAYBE ON THEIR WEBSITE. I THINK THEY HAVE A MAGIC WAY TO SEAL CRACKED BLOCKS. THEY DO MODEL a AND b engines too. I have never used them but i have called them and they always return the call or e-mail. A local machinist said he could not come close to H and H price for insert bearings on a Model a or b engine, The local machinist has done a lot of model a and b inserts.

Plus they have a pretty red paint for flatheads.
