Default Re: 59AB Going into my '33 Truck, Generator Question

Thank you all. Coop, wow that is some trick things that were fabricated. I wish I knew just a fraction of what y'all know. The engine I'm putting in is a 59AB from a friend of mine that had it in his 1936 Ford Pickup. He gave it to me when he screwed up a piston. I had it all machined, sleeved and rebuilt, I think .30-.40 over. I think it is a 42-48 engine with the crab type distributor. He kept the generator setup that he used on his new motor that he put in. So I'm just not that smart with experience to know exactly what year the motor is. I do know the oil pan is from a 1-1/2 ton or bigger truck, because it's the 2 piece one and the smaller part is missing. So I have some problems. But I want that 4 banger out of there and this new engine put in so I can have some fun with it. No offense, I have no fun in 4 cylinders, and they leak like crazy!!
