  1. What is that blower in the 3rd pic down? Man it looks good.
    Doc.
     
  2. Hey Doc,it looks a bit like a 6V53 Blower. A friend had one on a hot V6 in a Pop many years ago. It ran twin downdraught webers on it.

    That Hogan mag setup looks neat, looks like he's using an old aircraft mag for the 'generator' portion.

    So, on the McCulloch equipped flatty, is that Scott style injection, or are those carbs? If those are carbs, I expect the doohickey on the firewall (that the fuel lines go to from the 'carbs') is a boost referenced fuel pressure regulator? Or have I missed the mark entirely?

    Cool stuff all around, thanks for the pics.

  8. Thanx for postin Kev for us Flathead nuts. I SERIOUSLY have to get my *** down there and soon....

    Flatoz and I run Hayden's blower intakes and they are super nice castings and fit real nice. Intersting dual plug heads though, I wonder where the water inlet to the head is cast in ? Are they supposed to be run dry ala DRAG RACE only ?

    Looks like Flathead heaven. Now if only we could convert most of the street rodder clowns in Oz to embrace killer Flatheads it might almost be worth gpoing to events haha. OTOH, maybe its better this way ...more Flathead stuff for us haha.

    Nice work, thanx for sharing
