    Mad Mike the Flathead Freak here!
    Yes thats me, use to live in New Zealand, left in 86, still infected with the Flathead virus.
    built a few motors and now manufacture obscure speed equip .heads manifolds adaptors,that sort of thing.Metal finishing ,polishing and plating the finished articles as req. Now ,heres a curly one. Many years ago,I saw a 46 coupe with a set of what appeared to be bronze or br*** cylinder heads.The two Maori guys that owned it ,said it had very high compression and would only crank over on 12 volts,which i witnessed. Does anyone know about these ? i dont recall the name.they were not Aqua-plane brand.
