I have two '36 Ford PU's I'm building, one is similar to your car (Fuel Injected 5.0, Heidts, AOD, 9inch rear...ect) I NEVER ask a question here reagarding my suspension, engine, etc, etc...only things that are specific to '36 PU's.

My other '36 is in the "chassis stage" with a 221 FH, 3spd and open drive rear...not much of deviation as it was originally built, but won't be a "restoration project" either.

I've had no issues asking question about either truck while working on them, but I keep the questions "Early V8" related.

I don't think you'll find help here asking "what driveline should I look for for my combo", or "what radiator cools a SBC in a '49 Ford the best", but Year model question and such will most likely get a helpful reply.

Sure, most regulars here deviate some and it's accepted, but concept of this Forum shoul be respected.

Good luck, as other's have said, stick around...and don't for get the HAMB!
Nutshell of the day!

Nothin wrong with what you are doing. Most of our flatheads have some changes/modifications. Maybe we all would like to have a perfect restoration but can't for one reason or other. Stick around.
