This is an excellent example of a very stout street flathead built to the guidelines in the book 335 HP Flathead Ford V-8 Ford Performance Handbook.

WWWWWWWOW!

Real Hot Rods don't have valve covers!
-
i always wanted to build a sick flathead and put it in something much newer like even just a fox mustang
-
@seapeddler Oh, My bad, I missed the sarcasm. Odd that, I usually am the one posting the sarcasm. LOL!
True enough on the mains. But, then, when these engine were originally build this sort of mod was never considered. It amazes me they don't fly apart on the first full throttle pass.
-
@GunBroker100 Yes, I know. I was just joshin' ya. But a 1-piece main bearing saddle would keep the flatheads' 3 mains from oscillatin' too much.

@seapeddler Push Rods and Rocker arms?!? On a flat head?!? I think not!!! The valves are in the block and there are no push rods and rockers. Rockers and push rods on OHV engines.
-
Why didn't Volkswagen make an opposed flathead? Anyway, I had a Ford flathead and no matter what I did, the pushrods were always getting bent. The rocker arms on flatheads are bulletproof though. Really, a crank only needs 2 main bearings.
That is, the block and 1 piece main cap assembly. Of course the Chevy Volt is not as popular as the Flathead.

My dad use to tell me a story all the time (and idk how true it is but this should speak for the motor) that when he was about 7 or 8 my grandpa decided to sell his old Duece Coupe with a flat head in it (he took the money and used it to buy a 440 six pack cuda this was 1973). My dad said that the guy who ended up buying ask my grandpa if it was reliable. My dad says my grandpa went in the house, got a pistol, shot the block and turned the car on and ask, "Reliable enough for you?"
