Hi All,

I've always wanted to build a hotrod and now I'm finally taking the time do so. I picked up a 1942 Ford truck about 9 months ago and I'm in the process of building it. Right now I'm working on putting together an 8BA Flathead engine with the following:

Engine was ported and releaved
Egge 4 ring pistons
Stock rods
Stock valves
Stock Johnson hollow adjustable lifters
Edelbrock heads
Navarro 4BBL intake with Edelbrock 500cfm carb
4" stroke
Super 3/8 Potvin cam

Well, I got sucked into the Flathead craze and have since purchased 5 other blocks. I spend most of my time disassembling them to have them magged. So far I've only found 1 keeper.

Since I can't work on my truck full time I decided I want to build a front engine Flathead powered dragster. Since I'm new to all of this I'll try to post intelegent questions, but that may not always be the case.
