Hey folks I’m working on a 1934 Ford BB truck project with a 21 stud flathead. I’ve run into some confusion regarding the correct push rod length to use for the mechanical fuel pump. My engine is a 1934 21 stud flathead with what I assume is an original style aluminum intake manifold. Many...

Hello everyone, first time poster here. I have a 1934 Ford BB truck that I’ve been piecing together for years, only to recently find out I have a fitment issue with the ‘34 Flathead in it. Not sure why it didn’t dawn on me when I was installing the engine, but it sits much further back than it...
