Re: Flat 6
The flathead 6 is one of the best kept secrets of the flathead Fords. It has better lower end torque, almost the same horsepower and will out run an 8 until you get close to top end. It does not have the overheating and cracking issues that seem to plague the 8's and they are great running motors. I have 48 F3 with the H model. If you can find one of the more rare 254 M engines then you actually have more overall torque and horsepower than the 239's. The H or the M are the preferred motors over the G. Just a later/better design IMHO.
