Shaneo Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 G’day all, i’ve decided too keep the original flathead in my 47, i would appreciate any help as to rebuilding the flatty. I’d like to build it too handle a intercooled eaton m90 blower or turbo with blow through carb possibly and a auto trans, thoughts? Cheers shaneo.

Plymouthy Adams Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 plenty of folks will chime in on the flathead, not much on here for blower and or turbo setup that is beyond mockup, remember one filmstrip but the engine was not shown bringing the turbo online. I am glad however to see you did abandon the 350/400 plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflaming Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Shano! Adams is spot on. Flatheads are great engines, but . . . . Pigskin is tough leather, but not a candidate for a silk purse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaneo Posted November 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 I’d love nothing more than to pass my brothers 36 ford flatty, surely if rebuilt properly and with a lil extra to help the asmatic breathe can’t hurt running low numbers? Any thoughts on adapting auto trans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
