Might make a new forum?? Some of us old timers have stories that might you laugh, or understand where we come from in this world of flatheads. Ill make this one real short. Back in the 80's when I started building engines, I also had a job delivering parts for a "Junk yard"/ Most of the places I delivered to, knew I was into flatheads, and saved me parts. At one place I delivered a part too the owner said he had something for me, took me out to a area behind the shop and there was a pile of flathead speed equipment that almost didn't fit in my truck. must have been 20/30 aftermarket intakes dozens of Hi compression heads, cans etc I said I just didn't have the money for all this. He said "I'll help you load it, price of aluminum is low this week!!!

I'll think of another on next week
