    "Fred Offenhauser himself built perhaps 150 racing engines"

    "from 1950 through 1962, 424 of the 429 cars that qualified at Indianapolis were powered by a Meyer & Drake Offenhauser engine or by a Novi, an Engine desingned by Loe Goosen and initially built in the Offenhauser shop."

    From: The Offenhauser Book.

    There has never been an Engine that dominated like the Offy. Not in numbers of engines, but in winnings percentages.

    I am trying to figure out what pump this originally had on it over the years it got lost or used on something else. It faced the rear but was smaller. The Hilborn pump thats on it now hits the stacks if facing rearward.
    Kev could you get me a pic or some info on your buddy's pump set up? you can see in this picture the original pump as compared to the Hilborn pump on it now or does anybody know what pump this would have originally ran as shown in the old picture ...Mike

    I'll second the hymen. But without stating the obvious already mentioned, I'll add the 430 MEL Super-Marauder (maybe it was already mentioned?).

    Campbell woody conversion F-series trucks and M&H Ford Rangers, though not really parts per se.

    I searched this thread but it doesn't look like anyone mentioned Federal Mogul Thermo Flow heads for flatheads? Two-piece bronze heads, I believe, and the link below might work:

    I seem to remember seeing a bronze set of heads for the flathead for sale a while back, but can not remember for the life of me who made them.

    M/T hemi head or the pontiac 194.5 four, and maybe the 4-71 set up for it. maybe some twin cam conversion for old flat 4's. the complete turbo set up for the 61-63 olds jetfire(i think thats it...) i would love one of those, apparently the oldsmobile engine had extra head studs, though there the same enigne as the buick/rover.

    A set of Doug's 180 degree Headers for a 1967 Ford Big Block. These are the header design that tie (2) two cylinders from each side of the motor to the other side on the primaries.

    There are 2 tubes from each separate side that wrap UNDER the motor to tie into each other.

    You had to raise the motor about 12" out of the mounts to install them and then put the motor back down.

    I was in the speed shop business back then and it took me 2 full days to install then

    Ok I will toss in a couple more for you MoPar guys
    How about the 1946-52 Accessory compass?
    [​IMG]
    Since they were made with early plasatic once they were exposed to the sun and the hot interior of a car they deteriated quick. I sold this one 15 years ago for $500

    What if your hemi catches fire?
    Only a MoPar accessory fire extinguisher will do!
    [​IMG]
    These are also like finding hens teeth and will pull over a grand in this condition

    And lastly the electric locking gas cap! maybe this is why you would need the fire extinguisher?

    I only need the Decklid now, if you think you have one i can find a photo, and some dimentions, as for price i really dont know, the last ones i saw at swap meets were stupidly priced, but now i think they are repoping them. i am willing to pay a fair price but and even interested in ones that most people would call unsaveable
