Sir Speedy/R POPE!

Blocks were rejected due to 'any' crack, rust-out, or not meat enough left to bore out. One is assembled as a Display Motor.

R POPE; Thanks for the offer of potential Blocks, I'm sure you will have no trouble getting them into the hands of 'Flathead Lovers'. I have picked up two more complete engines and what appears to be a Cherry 51' Merc block. Despite that I'm going to run a Flathead Cadillac, heavy, but absolutely reliable. I will be putting lots of miles (5000+) and Long High Desert Trips in August (Bonneville) every summer on my Swap Meet 27' Roadster.
I'm building a Mold/molds for a 3-Deuce Manifold for the engine. In the mean time I'm looking for an 'EDMUNDS' Duel Deuce Manifold and Finned Heads for the Caddy. Any lead would be appreciated.
