41 Ford engine help
Hello,
I just got a 1941 Ford Sedan with a V8 flathead. I believe it to be the original engine. This is my first flathead and I am having a bit of trouble. I can get the engine to start every time but when you hit the gas pedal it falls on its face and stalls. It has no power and wont rev up. I believe that to be a timing issue but I am not sure. I am not sure just how to time a flat head and how to find top dead center. I have read quite a bit about guys having no power and it being the coil. I have bought a kit to relocate the coil but I have not installed it yet. Not sure where to start. All advise is welcome.
Thank you,
