While searching around, I found a new book by Mike Davidson entitled
Flathead Tuning Manual .

Curious if anyone has this title and care to share any thoughts about it?

Can't have enough books about our old flathead!

The book itself is not new, it is copyrighted 2004.

I've had the book for a number of years. It's got chapters on carburetors with some dyno results and also has ignition, fuel injection and valve timing info. I'd say it is well worth having.

Mike Davidson has a few good books.
Street flathead .
Flathead fever
Flathead tuning.

All a good read with his own real experience information.
Now if I could only find some of his adjustable lifters, they are out of production now.
