    IIRC ( see I'm getting modern) didn't the flathead ford have a valve train that wasn't adjustable????????


    Is it snowing up there yet????? and are you going to PRI ???
    i would like to. now that it is not as far.they sent me paper work still up in the air. i am guessing not less i get the stroker ford engines and others are done at the shop??? .if i do i see you there? it.s snowed nothing big and not sticking as for now but if in stay cool it will soon be here to stay. yes the old flat heads only have done one was 37 caddy not bad fun .i like to do more but the guys around here must not like my price on doing them ?
