Tod is a man of many interests. Yeah he started out making a WINNING V8 block...but it wasn’t a flathead !
His next big goal was a flathead...A/B banger block in alum / cast iron.

He then discussed V8 flathead block making.


After his successful cast iron ( racing blk),
Only one of these blk subjects/projects have come to completion fruition ...a four banger cast iron copy of FORDS A engine, which can be seen running on u-tube (?).

Maybe I'm either missing or misunderstanding your point, but you are NOT coming-across as a huge fan of Tod's past accomplishments. I hope I'm wrong! DD

Your wrong, kinda.
I’ve been one of his biggest supporters/boosters...for a lot longer than anyone here even knew of him !

Have you ever, would you ever lend someone , who lives on different coast...Super rare equipment to make copies of ?
Enough said.

‘kinda’, meaning we have talked about having tooo much going on to get the many projects finished. I’ll leave it at that.
