[QUOTE=Bored&Stroked;1923188]When I ran my '34 more-door Sedan as a 16 year old at the 'Antique Nationals', with a new 286 cube flathead (first flathead I built), I ran consistent 15.21s, 15.22s with a 4.11 rear.

I never saw a flathead run that well around Iowa, but I never saw one without the rear door handles either. Musta made a difference! LOL
