FH std heads
I has a 59 block that has a crack down in oilrail but issue it's overbored max.
Idea is has a nice show room engine that might get a future. I has become to really like the early style but post war with the Weiand hi-rise that might be a pre war intake but fit that style with std heads on. Ex how Hendersons roadster engine look like, se picture. I has a Kurten modify LZ V12 distributor, and I also has 2 Stromberg 97. I also has crank and rods and a oilpan. The engine going to my 32 5W coupe is more a full race engine with a Merc -41 block with aluminium L&S heads, and that has a set up combo that I will use. I found a set of Ford heads ( told to be PU ) but there was also Mercury heads and Ford heads ( not PU ) -Some information on this (?) This intake Henderson used, is that a Weiand or a Edelbrock ? I actually like this early modest style. Less, but more. Last edited by 3W Hank; 03-01-2026 at 01:07 PM. |
