The Ford Barn - View Single Post - later flathead vs. columbia for stock 34 Coupe

Ron Pilger · 12-01-2015, 09:14 AM

Yesterday, I started a thread about which flathead to use in an otherwise stock 34 Coupe. My goal is an increase in power for highway cruising. In your expert opinion would I be better off with a 21 stud engine and trying to round up a Columbia rear end or making the modifications necessary in order to use a 24 stud or higher hp later version of flathead? I do not want to alter the coupe's firewall in any way.
