    I ran across a boat that I am interested in. It has a complete V8 flat head with "Osco" conversation in it.
    I know nothing of Flathead's, or their value.
    I am hoping that the friendly folks here might help me out.

    Osco built a marine conversion in the late forties and early fifties with manifolds and trannies and water pumps and so on to convert... huge amounts of these engines were around, but I couldn't tell you how many marine conversions were made. Most are museum pieces now. I have no idea of their value, maybe check Ebay

    Thank you for your reply. I am hoping that someone else really wants/ needs this engine and trans combo. I bet that is what every hard core Flathead fella needs!
