Guess I better double check with the guy about the engine. Haven't been out to see it myself yet. Thanks for the info.
I hear what you're saying about not tearing the car apart but finding a good running 401 up here is easier said then done.
I've come across a '61 Buick Lesabre 4 door that's in pretty good shape, glass all good, trim there, looks pretty straight, etc. All I really want...
Obviously I made the right choice!!
New to the flathead world and was wondering what the word on Holly 94's is. Came across a pair and am thinking of running them on the flattie. Any...
Thanks guys. The good news is it's been converted to 12 volt already. I'll be changing the heads and adding a 2 2-barrel carb manifold before it...
Well I bought a '49-'53 Ford flattie the other week for my Model A sedan and have heard from a number of people "I really love flatheads but they...
Does anyone have the hp numbers from flatties in the new method?
So does that mean a 51 merc flattie with a 125 hp is more like 75-85 with the new system?
Ok. So in the mid to late '70's I know they changed the way horsepower was rated and the numbers all really came down. The question I have is with...
Search the thread "Evil model A's" or " Evil A's". Can't remember which but lots of pics.

Oh. I see.......The "A" grill.........not the "other A" grill. ????? Thanks Zombie. I've got a number of articles on that car. It's so damn nice....
Which A grill? 32? 29?
Clark, Did you fab the frame? If not where did you get it? Looks pretty good.
Ok I've got a '29 Model A Sedan and am totally loving the look that Rolling Bones has done on a couple of the 30/31 Model A's. The highboy with...
Are manual transmissions or adaptors hard to find? I've done a little looking but all the adaptors I've found for Olds seem to end in '64.
There's one for sale thats been "rebuilt" and I'm thinking it would be a good fit for the '29 Sedan. I don't want a SBC but would like something...
Thanks for all the info guys. Skajaquada lots of links and info for sure. Thanks. Anyone know how hard to find a manual trans for the '69 or...
Well "twinkie" does not sound so good. I was just wondering about basic hp, reliability, if there's much for speed parts, etc. Haven't been able...
Just wondering if anyones got info on them. Good? Bad? Anybody running one?
New shop T's
Brent, I think I hate you. That is some amazing craftsmanship and inginuity. Can't wait to see the final result.
Freezing my butt off in Calgary. Looks like a decent amout of Alberta guys. Come down to the shop and buy something!!! This weather kills me!
There's a guy selling a '55 291 Desoto Hemi with the torqueflite 2 speed tranny for about $1500 cdn and it's pretty tempting. It's running but I'm...
Had to chime in with my 2 cents and say thanks for all the posts. Awesome build. Hope to see more re: what you'll be doing to the body.
Thanks for the input. I'll check on the adapt plates and see what I can come up with.
