I am doing final detailing on 1949 B1F and would like to know how much of nose emblem has red paint on it ? My question was about the paint in the letter " E," Thanks

I painted mine to match the truck color. It's the later model emblem and It's probably incorrect but I though red wouldn't look right and I'm stickin to it.

Fernando,

Even though it doesn't look like it in the photo my dipstick measures 15" from the lower tip to the inside of the little cup that covers the dip stick tube. 5 quarts without a filter and 6 quarts with a filter. Mine does not have a filter.

I thought these Dodge /Plym flatheads held 5 quarts in the pan alone.

You are right Bob. My bad. I edited my original post. Damn Alzheimers.

Geez, And I thought I was really loozin it---putting 5 quarts in the flathead oil pans. I think we both have "Old Timers" a tad bit Reg!

I just thought Reg was one of those "guys" who believe these flatheads run better a quart low. As crazy as it sounds I know people who do that. They believe these engines always leak or burn out the first quary anyways so they just leave 1 out.
