Flathead Magnesium Oil Pan and McCulloch SuperCharger

I went to the toy store yesterday and bought a Magnesium Oil pan for a flathead and a NOS still in the box McCulloch Supercharger. I am going back to the toy store for more later next week

 

Ummm.. Ok. I must be going to the wrong toy stores. Where are YOU shopping?!

 

Ditto!

Rich

 

Where is this toy store you speak of. I wanna play.

Doc.

 

wow....that oil pan especially is something else!
painted up with polished ribs would look fantastic.

 

Huh, what?

Fess-up! Where is it!

 

Me too! We need to know more about that pan. Is it possibly some form of a French flatty pan? DD

 

Yea give it up we all want to play....

 

You're talking about The Toy Store in San Bruno owned by Russ Head?

 

Is that one of Orosco's high dollar pans?

 

Cool!

 

Yes it is

You win the guess of the day !

 

the pan is in the $1300.00 neighborhood, if i remember correctly!

 

Well..........maybe I don't quite need to play THAT badly after all. Sure is a nice one, though. DD

 

I don't think $1300 would buy that pan.

 

hot and is that a distro for elco twin I see ?

 

I also snapped up a 34 dash for my 34 build sweet

 

no - the French alloy pans don't have any cooling ribs

 

Pan is cool... how much does it weigh?

 

That is some equipment right there! Awesome looking.

 

ill have to stay home and play with barbie , those toys are out of my grasp , they look nice

 

Did anyone notice that the pan does not have a crankcase vent up front, as do the post 34 through 48 blocks? How do you adjust for that if you want to run a 24 stud motor?

Is it not the same problem when putting an aluminum '32 Ford pan on a post '34 block?

 

dunno feels like 10-15 pounds... its magnesium, hope I dont get it on fire LOL

 

Pretty cool stuff...d32

 

I went back to teh Toy store today and picked up some more Unobtainium

 

Here is a closeup of the Paint

 

Thats why I dont know about that toy store! Its out of my league indeed

 

yes its an expensive store, like tiffinys for hot rods

 

That pan is a incredible....does anyone know the history on it? What are you going to use it on?
