Id this engine please

What is this crazy engine?

 

Think its a Cadillac Flathead

 

Loks like a Military application Caddy engine or somethng similar.

 

If its a Cad motor, its an older one.

 

think it´s a pice a s**t.
Give it to me!!!!!!!

 

Looks like a Lincoln V-8, But Cadillac exhaust exited through the top like that. Go take a picture of the front of that DeSoto. Hood up or down is optional. Im gonna look again.

 

Looks like a 36-48 Cadillac L-Head. Either 322 or 346 c.i.

Hubbcat is kind of far..so you're better off giving it to me! HAHA Just playin!

 

My first guess http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQvD_aBGSAs
WWII Cadillac M5 1-G Tank Engine

 

>>>>>,I believe that was used in Boats after WW II also ,Chris Crafts and Century's ,,and as a twin engine install in Gibson House Boats ,,and others ,,,

 

Cadillac for sure.

 

Whatever it is, it needs to be in a fenderless rod!

 

What hubbcat said....give it to me it's junk.

 

Ok, here is the real answer. 1932 Pontiac, or 1930-1931 Oakland.

1932 Flat-head V-8. The first V-8 engine that Pontiac offered was in 1932. It was the same 251-cid 85-hp flat-head V-8 used in Pontiac’s almost-dead parent make, Oakland, during 1930 and 1931.
