Here is my Flathead in the 31

 

My avatar engine, 59 235 in my 47 Chevy PU.............

 

348 in ´50 Fleetline

 

This is the 350 in my 56 Chevy. I just wanted to detail it out, as it was looking kind of shabby after 20+ years. These were taken early this year. Car is back together now.
Heads are Patriots from White Performance in Kingsport, TN. Polished the ends too. Pretty good luck with them, but I also had to utilize headers, as the ram horn manifolds won't fit flush with the heads because of the taller valve cover rail unless you used a really, really thick gasket.
It was a trick using the old Edelbrock intake because the intake's ports are about 2/3 size of the ports on the heads, big difference! Used the 1/8 thick Felpro intake gasket glued to the head to boost the intake up high enough to be centered over the ports. Seems to work alright and runs great to. Not a race car so any adverse affects of port mismatching are negligible I'm sure.

 

My mockup of my 8BA in a '50 F1, working hard on the body to get this on the road.

 

My ol henry j and my 32 roadster.

 

A couple of my twin turbo flathead. Navarro heads and intake. Almost done with machine work.

 

stroked 409

 

My brother's '40 merc originally dropped in as is in '49.
O/T shadetree daily drive 308" Cleveland rebuild courtesy the late Edwin Stratford. This engine swapped for a watercolour painting of Edwin's dilapidated family farmhouse done by myself. Painting won 'Spirit of Coloola Shire art Award'- 1999.
This sweet 60,000 mile engine hauls arse. The flathead keeps it honest.

 

Please keep us posted Greenracer. This has intrigue.

 

Here is the one for my 34 coupe . . . am working away on the rest of the dang car. Takes a lot longer than one is willing to admit! Hope to have the darn thing on the road by the end of summer . . . won't be done, but hopefully rolling along under it's own power.





PS: Got rid of the Demon carbs - just didn't look right for a late 60's style build.

 

+1

adding a fuel primer of some sort in the intake will help cranking since youre having to pull fuel uphill. good job I like it.

 

sweet. i was hoping my motor would make it on here. i just bought this one from krackerjack88 last month.

looks good and runs good.

 

Heres the small block in my 55...

 

And now we go from Belleville NJ to Belleville Ontario Canada
Here are two in my garage. A 1963 Dodge Nascar style MAX WEDGE 426
and from my SR dragster a slant six Dodge

 

I dared to be different, and put a Chevy in a Ford

I had the block sitting in the corner of my garage for about 15 years and finally had something to put it in.

 

here's a couple of chevys

my 409 62
