I stuck it in..polished Flathead in my A pickup

well its been forever since I posted anything on here. Been a Super crazy late spring---- late summer. My work was out of control.. since that helps me pay for my junk I followed through. . I have not gotten much farther than a rolling chassis on my 34.. but I will try to have it running before the end of the year. God willing. . I did put together my dream engine for my A truck.. I have ran a pretty much stock merc flathead in it for about 7 years..

I decided I needed something a little more. if I was going to keep the tradition alive in it..

I put together a .060 over merc Crank Schnieder cam . New stainless valves.. Head made of bronze. All cc'd Its sounds soo killer. Just started it for the first time last night.

I have an alexander intake on it.. will probably bend myself over and put on 2 new 97s. Since everything else looks soooo clean. . thats about all for not

That's a thing of beauty Aaron.

Doc.

 

That looks so cool Aaron!

 

here is a better shot of it

 

That's beutifull. Is there something (like clearcoat maybe?) on the heads to keep them shiny? Or is there something out there to minimize the time it takes to keep them shiny?

 

that is very WOW........Pollished Bronze heads?


WoW...

Cheers,

Drewfus

 

sweeet!!!!

 

looks great!
who made the heads?

 

Love the flathead.

Perhaps some double dipping is in order...

 

Second that.

The writing on the heads looks like Tattersfields.

Please more info. Love the entire package.

 

That thing is art ,it looks like an engine that one of the homeshop machinists would make.truly beautifull

 

Looks great Aaron.

 

Pink Shorts? WTF

 

That engine looks like a billon $$$$ baby !!! Great stuff !
Klaz

 

Looking good.

 

Beautiful engine!
Yes,
I too would like to know more about the heads.
Is that your pants at your ankles working the jack???

 

BWAHAHAHAHHAHA perfect !

 

Very cool heads, I want a set. I think bronze heads were made for marine use but not sure. Are those Federal-Mogal heads?

 

I believe those are the same heads that are on the Bob McGee roadster, except these are 21 stud.

 

nice very nice

 

DAAAAAANNNNG!!!

That Alexander intake is rare, RARE, RARE!!!

Where in the name of the flathead gods did you find it?

 

look`s more like a pink kilt ?

 

Beautiful engine!

 

Aaron, that motor is a thing of beauty, and the fuel induction.....well, you know what I think about that. Oh, by the way, did you get all the sticky smouges wiped out of your coupe after last months photo shoot?

 

You have pretty parts...

...and the motor's damn nice too!

 

Arron is THEM's Most eligible bachelor and has been Brad Pitts stunt double
for several years now..I bet you didn't know that.

Why is Drew trying to poo on the floor?

looks bad ass...Not as good as the Caddy motor sitting next to it but..I guess
it's cool if you into that kind of thing..

I can't wait to be in your arms again.

 

Hmm, wonder is the Bronze head would be prone to leakage after some miles got put on that engine?? Very nice setup though!!!!

 

I wonder if Zoopseal works on bronze, sure works on aluminum.

 

looks good Aaron!
glad your still alive!

one word...fantastic
