Re: Frenzel
Scott looks cooler IMO, but I probably won't be buying either one any time soon.

Re: Frenzel
Sooo cool. Total loss battery ignition? I don't see a mag.

Re: Frenzel
It seems the Aussies are still ahead of us for cool flathead stuff.

Re: Frenzel
I think the Frenzel is cool as can be, sometime ago I looked into purchasing one. If I remember correctly they were priced around $10,000.00, there is also one being made in the states. My biggest question was, how do you drive the generator?

Re: Frenzel
So why only ONE drive belt?? When are we to see a TRIPLE crankshaft pulley from someone? Even an old McCucllic [?]needs a better crankshaft pulley. Newc

Re: Frenzel
I know nothing about blowers, and not much more about anything else, but please tell me why the starter is on the left side? I know the picture is not reversed, because I can at least spell Frenzel.

Re: Frenzel
1954 Canadian flatties had the starter on that side. Finally, changing a starter motor in a RHD car is much simplified...lol Yes, Ford Canada kept the flathead one year longer than USA

The distributor looks like it's in the way of using the back sheaves on the upper pulley.This can be over come by the use of a Chevy dissy that the base stands roughly an inch taller and will probably still a need an idler to pull it away even more. Depending what car it's going in, the water pump hoses will be close to belts. He probably needs to fab both pulleys. Last edited by solidaxle; 11-22-2023 at 07:33 AM. |

Re: Frenzel
The vacuum distributor he has maybe the best option.
I have a Malloy flat top with mechanical weights and have been considering using a vacuum advance distributor on my S.c.o.t. setup. Reason being, once you stomp on it, the timing will momentarily retard do to lack of vacuum, helping with detonation until the rpm's increase. |

Re: Frenzel
Cool looking blower, but it doesn’t look like it would fit under the hood of many cars.
