Default Re: Military flathead engines

Hi; I have a number of Canadian Ford military engines and they all have an extra oil port on the bell housing for the oil cooler supply. Some are relieved and some not. The C-59 engines were found in civilian production up thru '48. Apparently surplus castings from WW2. US engines were in staff cars/trucks and T-6 carriers. Newc To clairify: the Military engines would have 3 oil ports in the left rear location of the block. The regular 2 on the 'boss' and the 3rd to the right of that same 'boss', kind of 3/4" to the right of the 'boss'. Newc
