Mackster;

Desoto and Crashler engines differ in 53-54 only by the length of the stroke. Crashlers used a longer stroke increasing the displacement from 251 CI to 265 CI. I have installed a 53 Desoto engine in my 48 P-15. I did not do any head work when I first assembled my engine. I have sence picked up a "Spitfire" head and plan on giving it the full treatment prior to installing it.

The only difference in a Spitfire head and the original is the raised Spitfire logo cast into the top of the head.

That is awesome Don! I think everything I need you already Have them now I am jealous:D

There are still here in california, I just don't see why? I think a rattle can job done with passion and a little Beer goes further than Earl's, But that is just my two cents....
