Heh...yeah the flatheads didnt have any right hand torque(or as it left?) hmmm. Ohh well. I remeber staring one up on the shop floor without any restrains becasue they had no oommmph over to the side.Well...a little but you could restrain it with one hand.
Compare the simplicity of the old flathead's to the nightmare of working on today's overhead valve engines. Say you have a blown head gasket for example. On a flathead, no problem. Just pull the head off and put in a new gasket. But what if the blown head gasket is on a 4.6 liter Ford V8? Unless you're a mechanic you probably won't be able to do it yourself and a shop will probably cost you $2,000 or more.
@imjustpassinthru Isnt that the sad truth.I had a 4 cyl ford sourier engine,TO change the head gasket i had to actually pull the radiator out to get to a little tin plate cover to access a timming chain release spring.In order to take out the radiator i had to ;on and on,,,,an on.On a chevy luv ,It was a simple little task of remove head bolts and timming gear and exhaust couple.That was it.,,,really that was it.Ok,ok...I had to take off the carb linkage.But that was it.really.
