Anyway, would still like to find the flathead coolant diagram, I know there has to one out there somewhere.

Thanks!

It was obvious to MOST of us that you were asking for a sincere reply!

For what it's worth, it's fairly common knowledge that Ford re-designed the '49-'53 engines with the intent of flowing more water toward the REAR of the engine, for what that is worth. And as noted above, remember that with a flathead, the water on one side of the block is completely isolated from the water in the other side of block.....EXCEPT for any mixing going-on in the radiator. MANY flatheads tend to run just a smidge (VERY few degrees)warmer on the passenger side. DD
