Re: 1940 merc & ford x member replace
A traditional hot rodder would have built that Merc flatty. The original hot rods mostly had Ford engines until the competition finally built something that would compete. I don't mind monkey motion engines but they're in my muscle cars of the 60s. I'm fortunate to still be able to push a clutch and grab a gear. Maybe someday I'd consider and automatic.
A Ford in a Ford is my personal preference. I damn sure wouldn't put a good Ford engine in a Chevy.
