ID this engine

430 Lincoln!!Cool.Did a search on ebay and only came up with two hits.Not much out there for these engines.I`m wondering if it is worth the trouble to hall a few parts of these engine and sell them.Tring to find a way to fund the next project

My V8 book, The "ULTIMATE" V8 1949-1974, book as the title says gets another blemish on its record. No pics of any Lincoln stuff.
The first blemish is that there is no info on the Flatheads from 49-53.

You've got this in your tagline and you're not immediately thinking of building your own "Hot Rod Lincoln"? I reiterate my inquiry about the FE valve covers and aircleaner.

Other than that, it is a great book.

 

Fitzee- that Lincoln motor is a "MEL"!! (Mercury-Edsel-Lincoln).
Looking pretty rough, and kinda hard to get parts for by all accounts, but a torque Monster!! High 400s.
Do a HAMB search on MEL (or google too). Lotsa info.
