Found this on another forum and thought some would like to drool as I did when seeing this. Brian. http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/showthread.php?t=177556&referrerid=68382
im droolin! we got a 35 coupe that used an ardun many tears ago and competed in local hill climbs. its still on the road but has a flattie now.
Who had that set?. I used to have a mate in Auckland with set fitted with a cut down Weiand Dragstar 331 Hemi manifold on it. It featured in NZHRM back in the day although it didn't run. Fitting Ardun heads was one thing,actually getting horsepower with them is a totally different matter as any one will tell you. There were a few sets in OZ in the 50's and at least one set was raced at Bathurst (pre'big race ') in a Ford powered Buggatti.
