Well, we all know your oil pump works now!
Nice engine!

Do you need 80 PSI of oil pressure at speed for longevity? That seems like a possible hydrostatic power loss in an engine you want every last possible fraction of a horsepower out of.

Interesting engine!
Does it have a 1-2-4-3 firing order?
Many Ford 4 engines used this rather than the more common 1-3-4-2 firing order.
A four cylinder with 3 carbs. Unusual.
What is the speed record in your class?

@OzzInter The model A, B and C have a firing order of 1-2-4-3. This engine is 220ci, that's why it has 3 stromberg carbs.

is it a 4 cylendar like on my 1948 ford 8n

It very likely could be. I'm not sure if model A type engines were in your type of Tractor? This motor is a 4cyl flathead 220 ci running on gas, made only 40 hp in stock configuration.

@8nguy
The 9N , 2N & 8N tractors used a 119.7 c.i. engine with a 1-2-4-3 firing order.
It was apparently one side of a V8 engine.

Very nice. Always hated fours until I heard the 'bangers...

Me too, Ford's flattie fours changed my perspective on fours...

The pure ingenuity that it takes to build something like that blows my mind. I wish I could be there in person to hear that crazy little engine run.

flathead 4 banger getting ready for what?
to lose a race? whats it got? like.. 100 horses?
buckkn1f3 5 years ago
READ the title! Bonneville. Don't you understand class racing at the Bonneville Salt Flats? Racing is done against a top speed record. And by the way...a flathead 4 banger is 220 CI and makes a lot more than just 100 hp. But seriously, If I have to explain this....you probably don't get IT anyway.
hotrodvon 5 years ago
don't the flathead v8s make like 100 hp stock?
bassnsx 4 years ago
He's trying to say that it could be the fastest flathead 4 banger. "Although it isn't THAT fast." Good sound though, like half a V8, hehe.
