Technical flathead should I or shouldn't I

The column shift truck transmission is like a car transmission they don't have a granny low.

 

The fork is cast in like the 3 rd picture

 

So I dragged it home , even if I really didn't need it , I will check tomorrow to see if the ****** and bell
are one .
I am collecting parts to build a 60 horsepower, have a running and rebuilt 60 hp now , so I may just use it .
so far I have found some 60 over pistons , eddie myer heads , an isky track cam , 1940 timing cover
and pumps , still looking for a dual carb intake.

 

I am going to put some ****** fluid in the cylinders and see if I cant get it unstuck
but the big picture I am just going to move it along and concentrate on the v8 60 hp

 

You did good . I know some guys that have bought stuck flatheads ,soaked them , popped them loose then drove them for several years with out any issues .

 

Wood remover- I have a line on a duel carb manifold for a V8-60. E mail me at springgrange@personainternet.com
To porkn******, When you have driven a flattie /S10 5 speed roadster for 75000 miles you will know why I broke tradition and used a modern trans. Henry needed a little help in places!!!

 

According to Ford archives in Oakville ON both 8BA and 8RT are 6.8 to 1 comp.
