ultimate flathead
volume 50, #2 of "old cars" magazine, just out, contained an interesting article re: an engine put together many years ago and run in a '32 roadster. this was a 239, naturally aspirated with 3 97's and a few after market speed parts. dyno reading was 350 h.p. and rev'd regularly to 10,000 rpms, sometimes all the way to 12k. if you can acquire a copy of this issue, as i say, an interesting story and you can be the judge.
