Correct fan hub length on 60HP
Does anyone have a stock 60HP engine in their 37-39 Ford? I need to know the correct length of the fan hub. Is it 2" or 4 1/8"? The Green Bible shows it 4 1/8" but I've seen two on OLD engines that are 2". The 37 60HP in the Early Ford V8 Museum I am told measures 2". I want to do this engine properly if it is going to the museum. Thanks guys.

I've mentioned it and they say they don't have an iron side 60HP, and that's about as far as we have gotten so far.

The 60HP engine used a special 2 bladed fan in 1940, the 1937-39's used the same fan as the 85hp engines Heck I offered them the oldest production flathead known to exist in private ownership (18-124) and was turned down. Admittingly I understand shy they are overcrowded with large display items. |

Re: Correct fan hub length on 60HP
Well, at least my intentions were good. I'll check further a little farther down the line. I have one grandson that may be interested. In the interim I will continue my quest for the correct parts and my mission for getting it cleaned up and lookin' purdy. And the hub on the 85 engines is how long?? Inquiring minds want to know.
