Default Re: Model A Fords and Ford 2.0 and 2.3 engines

OK, thanks for the oppertunity to jump in. I try to be a pureist for the sake of the Model A --"do no harm to original parts". but I have a B/F head (hilly country) electronic ignition, and an alternator. I want to use a generator but I keep needing to go back to the alternator when the gen. stops. I have a few questions that I didn't want to ask like; I haven't found a reasonable 31 rad. shell for my roadster project but, I have a perfect 31 commercial shell -- what would that look like painted body color until I can find a really good one that I can aford? A friend has a "B" engine for sale what is a reasonable offer for an engine that hasn't been opened for inspection? and, do they lend themselves to easily inserted mains -- I can babbitt Model A's but I don't have B stuff. Regards, E LaBrash
