but you got the right idea...4! the engine builder of the A engine said... "for getting max power out of an engine... takes 4 valves per cyl!" and backed that up with a comment about the new Corvette engine running per cyl... 4 valves!

Where do you draw the line and just put in a modern replacement engine? I'm sure not too many will agree.

Re: Hipo Model B
Opinions will vary, here's pics of a Model B for racing Vintage in EU.
Yes 16 valve and DOHC. ~300 HP. Maybe not your Grand Fathers Model A.... John

Re: Hipo Model B
Video of Roy Creel with his DOHC B engine on the dyno.
It must be something in the water..... John Neilson lives near Roy and also Carol Mosher. She and her husband Ron started Ford A Speed Technology F.A.S.T. https://www.hotforhotfours.com/index.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IejbsUzmVI0 about the dyno tune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dswKW6g6bo |
