Latest Flathead build
V8/60 for a 48 Kurtis Midget. Original engine built by Clay Smith. I have replicated as close as I possibly could. Waiting on water manifolds to be cast. Carbs are mock up only. All but shiney parts block and crank are NOS. This engine could be raced.

Midgets are the most fun you can have with your clothes on.

Re: Latest Flathead build
Nice looking work Tony! Now you just need the V8-60 version of the 404-A.

Wow, if it runs as good as it looks, watch out. I’m sure it will.
