Pretty cool! I wonder how it runs. Never seen one set up on a car. I didn’t know it had coolant running through it.

Re: Blown Flathead At Vargo Dragstrip PA
texas webb, sorry no more pictures my friend had taken the picture and forwarded it to me. The thing I really find interesting about Robert Paxton McCulloch an engineer is that he went from superchargers to chainsaws ( I remember those engines used in Go-Karts) and outboard motors . He ended up buying The London Bridge and shipping it to Lake Havasu, Arizona.
After all there was a second picture I originally thought it was a duplicate that was sent. Here it is !
