Your right! I was on my phone without my cheater glasses! Missed the picture totally!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does the outside look like this? And is one valve visibly bigger than the other? If so it’s a Ford 337 8EQ/Lincoln 8EL Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

$2350.... adding a turbo to a flat motor would be better/probably cheaper too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is my 885fg off of my 337 Flathead. It was a truck motor, so it had a governor. I changed the dizzy to a lincoln car dizzy so I am going to change the 885 base to a non-governed one. Therefore the carb is incomplete, but is rebuilt and powder coated to be “different”! Sent from my iPhone...

Well lots of good discussion. I think I’ll hang on to my 885. It’s all ready rebuilt who knows maybe set up a manifold with a pair of them on it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My 337 doesn’t has adjustable solid lifters[emoji41] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There are some on “Evil Bay”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can’t believe these carbs wouldn’t flow a bunch better than a 94 or a 97. I just can’t believe no one ever checked to see if these could help produce more power. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m wondering if the reason for the Mercury flatheads having a higher horsepower rating is due to cam or head differences or perhaps the 885 carb. The venturi’s are quite a bit larger in diameter than a 94, a 1/4” larger. Yes I know the merc had a 4” crankshaft. Is there a reason no one seems to...

Bent Valve? "Hard tellin' not knowin!"

Probably an oak rack body. "Hard tellin' not knowin!"

I’ve gotta figure out how to make a single spot with all my F8 pictures from start to finish that folks can go look at... "Hard tellin' not knowin!"

Also if you have chrome-moly rings, they take longer to seat than steel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

One thing I thought about also is, if the engine was rebuilt, seals DID get put on the intake valve guides correct? Ask me how I know if you forgot.[emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree with Crankster, Drive it like a rental. It’s a Flathead it can take it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
