    My brother built the motor. He has been building motors since 1948 still has the flathead tools he got new then, he is now 73 and still going strong. The motor is stock with .030 over all rods were rebuilt crank turned .010-.010. block decked and heads milled. He knows how to build flatheads. being retired he only charges $750 labor plus parts for one. He still has a full machine shop at home.
