OHV conversion for mopar flat 6

Did any of you guys happen to catch the overhead valve chrysler flat 6 out at Bonneville? I have so much respect for Earl. He has continusly created performance parts for a often overlooked engine. Here are some pictures I snapped of his friends truck that already has the conversion installed and on the road. Earl's Bonneville spitfire is compeating with a flat six with many of his own speed parts.

that's cool!

 

neato!!!!

I made an ohv head for a 2 hp B&S lawnmower engine in college...if you've never made an ohv head, you ought to give it a try, it's a life changing experience

 

Holy balls of Hesus, Earl Edgerton is the man!

 

any pics of that whole truck, please!

 

Hey Squirrel, not to go too far off topic...do you have any pics/drawings etc of your ohv b&s conversion ?

Sorry, I was taken with the engine and didn't think to get any of the whole vehicle. It was a mostly stock appearing '35 Dodge I think.

I don't think I've met a more humble bunch of guys either, Earl and his crew. Really enjoyed chatting with them again this year on the salt.

Here's a pic of the truck-

Kudos Earl. That's a nice slab of aluminum you started with. Many H.A.M.B'ers would like to see more details. Thanks,

oh shit thats cool!

 

Damn. I was talking to him and showing off my Plymouth and admiring the Bonneville Spitfire when he told me he made the F head. but I didn't know it was there in that truck. I didn't see it. Bummer.

 

I missed one on ebay a couple of years ago. I'd love info on that, it's be perfect for my Slug Bike, with the 2/3 HP Briggs WMB.
