Re: I'm considering powering a homebuilt airplane with a Ford V-8 Flathead
You may be in luck with the new aluminum version flathead engine. This would cure the nose weight problem. Last word that i heard was there is an ok given 10 aluminum engines to be built. This wont be a cheap item but then again planes are cheap either so its a toss up. Having ridden in the test mule engine powered car i can say that this engine does perform and run very smoothly. You should contact mark kirby for more information
