Default Re: 1947 Ford - convert to open drive line

Coop, I have to agree with ok Ron in this. Nobody needs a big beefy rear end with a flathead. Your reasons make sense for a big engine, but the extra weight and the loss of efficiency you cite are overwhelming for a small engine, unless all you need is the bragging rights of having a 9”.
