[ QUOTE ] Finaly regarding the valve problem. It states in the manual that you should run the engine hot. Remove the stubs. and then adjust the carbs so you get a 6" blue flame out of the exhaust ports. And the P51 Mustang,Lancaster bomber's where running the Merlin engine for hours with just short stubs, without major problem as i understand.

Mr 42, That's insane, nice done ! So there's actually one more being built ? What are your plans for the body? ...and I still think your '42 is one of the best 41 to 48 FORD's I've seen ! Keep up the good work and keep us posted. / primerkid
