Jack please don't take my comment the wrong way. The mystery of the 200 HP flathead is what I'm referring to. Two flathead designs that are worth investigating are the Briggs and Stratton 5 HP engines as used in the Jr Dragster class and the second is the Harley flathead KR design each can be used for any generation interested. We are not the last generation to care about the flathead heck I'm presently helping young guys and a few girls with their flathead builds so you can be sure the end is not going to happen for a VERY long time.
