I was initially going to re-install a flathead back in the 49 F1 Ford truck that I bought but now I might be leaning at installing a 289/302/351/? with a C4 auto or maybe a stick? Two reasons I might go that way. 1. The initial cost of rebuilding a flathead is a lot more than I realized. 2. Drivability of the old engine/tranny.
I probably will lose some money from those folks that want a flathead. Still groping for the answer.
SOOOOO....anyone have a running 289/302etc sitting around that you want to get rid of for a decent cost? Thanks Larry
