I recently picked up a flat head motor. The block has the number 59 with an L below it. The heads are center of head water outlet with an A cast into the head. I have asked a few flat head guys and they do not seem to be familiar with the L casting. I think this may have been a factory replacement motor for the 59 a or ab motor. Anyone have any thoughts or info about this motor? thanks mick.
