No, I don't know any 'flathead people' here. If my engine isn't a rebuild candidate, I have to really think it over about the car. Too many other car projects to go crazy on the Ford. Maybe if I sell another car... But I'm not there yet.[emoji16]

Still moderately positive about the engine. Hoping to pull it tomorrow and check it out more. Especially the main bearings.
