    Those Ardun heads makes that flathead sound and look sweet, that’s a beautiful piece of art.

    "I thought about it when I was laying in bed this morning and I didn't write it down." Wow, I feel your pain. I think I have said that at least two or a thousand times in my life.

    The process of doing that to a flathead is amazing.
    It sounds good.

    Ole Duntov designed some great heads. I know a guy with a 40 Ford Coupe with V8, standard trans and glass packs that sounds like a love song.

    Super quality build guys . I agree though the yellow springs draw the eye to much.

    I remember seeing 1/4 speed double lobe camshafts in 50s @ 60 hot rod magazine. Including the larger cam sprocket / gear

    That's one sweet Ford. Sounds healthy. Solid lifters?

  • @smokeygasser4037
    @smokeygasser4037 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cam sounds solid 👌 also sounds like it would like a little more timing. I wouldn't get hung up on a should-be timing number the dynamics of every engine is different and people tend to get hung on static numbers

    It must of been the blinker fluid was running out of the steering column LOL!!!

    La belleza del flathead es justamente eso,las cabezas planas,cuál es el sentido de por válvulas a la cabeza?

  • @BoxcarsGarage
    @BoxcarsGarage 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Very classy build....one recommendation, drop the yellow paint on the springs. It's a bit of a distraction from your build.

    Well you kids are sure havin' fun. But with the ARDUN OHV conversion, it's time to stop calling it a flathead.

    I like the manual water temp gauges for that reason and that's all, I install older vehicles.

    when you try to put the grill shell on I think you will find it won't fit unless you cut the front corners off and re weld them

    Sounds pretty nice! Running the engine in a closed space is unhealthy!!

    You need to have the car running when you check the trans fluid level, and it sounds like it needs the rockers adjusted

    • @79tazman
      @79tazman 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not to check if there is fluid in the trans you don't

    The lifters or rockers are really noisy. Maybe you have not adjusted the rockers after a heat cycle? Sounds like a diesel. Beautiful car.

      Looks as though he is not planning hood sides - coil over mounts also would be a problem for sides. But it will look great with those valve covers out on the open.

    Seems like waste of money installing an Ardun conversion kit on top of a 1932 block with only 3 main bearings holding it together....it is a nice looking car though...
