Touring motor
For my Hot Rod friends
Hopefully the attachment with the engine picture will be attached. This is a french block 3/8" x 1/2" . I have some pictures of the dyno tests and will attach if this works. The engine pulled 305 ft lbs and 205 HP. It was tested on a dyno that reads out SAE corrected hp. It pulled as much as 320 ft lbs but mapped out 305 for the street. It is pretty much over at 4500, but that's OK. It's built to run down the road with a Columbia at 2200 rpm ( max tq)

flathead build
This is the roadster the flatty fits in. Real Henry with a 2 speed rear end.
Just finished a 1200 mile trip and about to embark on a 2000 miler. Runs cool in the 115 degree Lake Havasu AZ weather. 19 mpg @ 70mph.

Excellent!!!
I just discovered this thread. I have seen Russel's Model-A. It's rough in spots, but it's better than the one I started with. I'm anxious to see it come together. With his welding skills, he...
