That may be a dumb question or one that was asked 9 million posts ago, but I have been wondering?

I guess this guy does'nt know either.......

is it an A or a B? (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2462690593&category=62 34)

T=09-27
A=28-31
B=just a 32 I believe
Model 40=33-34 fords

just what ive been told

BTW 05-07 is the model C
06-07 is the model N

I had to do a report on this so I knew about the models C and N from ford heritage (http://www.fordheritage.com).

and I think that the ebay ad says model A because there isnt an ebay motors category for B's so he just did the closest thing.

The model B for 1932 was a 4 cylinder, the model 18 the V8. That car is a 32 as the ad says, wonder what the final price will B?
Another original Hot Rod out for the first time in years or another scam, the big block makes me suspicious http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I was under the impression that a B motor had a presurized oiling system/oil pump?

The B Model cam can drive a fuel pump. Model A has no fuel pump

The A motor was rated at 40HP, the B was 50. The water pumps are shorter and mount with 3 bolts. Had one of each in the garage, sold 'em both, should have kept the B.

This part is interesting:

$2000 deposit within 48 hours of close via paypal or cashiers check. Remainder before delivery. I will be moving March 3rd so the car will need to be picked up before then.

I only say that because the auction ends on March 1 at 30 seconds short of midnight Florida time. That would be March 2 before you could even hope to win and start the payment process. Hope you've got your trailer loaded and ready that night... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
