For sale is a complete 1953 Ford Flathead 8BA. I pulled the heads and pumps to inspect the block. There are no cracks between any of the cylinders and valve areas. I did not pull the oil pan to inspect the bottom end since the top looked so good. Engine is bored .040 over. The previous owner had the compression at 130-135 on all cylinders. Leakdown test at 15lbs. and oil pressure 20lbs. at idle. One head bolt broke off during dis***embly otherwise this is a great engine. I will include the following parts not shown, heads, pumps, 2 barrel intake, exhaust manifolds, generator, fan, starter, distributor, and a few more small things.
