My friend Richie built a flathead out of a 39 Ford he bought . (Hes a well known sprint car engine builder in Indy with a in house dyno room etc..)
After the build we put the engine on the dyno and i built him a helmet distributor etc for the engine. He brought the distributor to the shop and said you need to do something the engine only make 65-70 hp !!!
I looked it over very closely and it was a perfect helmet etc !! Nothing wrong what so ever !!!
Knowing Charlie from the Barn i sent him a message . His reply was put the carb in a box with some cash and he would fix it . Sent him the carb and when reinstalled the engine made 90HP !!! We were impressed !!
