I haven'tposted in a while, been too busy working. I have been working on my 1951 Ford F1 as time allows. I previously posted questions about rebuilding this engine, and got a lot of good feedback.
This week, the motor shop rebuilding my Flathead V8 got it assembled and running. Attached is the video I made at their shop.

By the way, I recorded this on my cellphone, and later found that I recorded it upside down. I was able to edit it and flip it over, but everything now appears to be on the wrong side of the block.

I'd love my motor to be around this way....no more starter fouling with the steering box when taking it out:)

Sweet sounding motor.....I can't understand why they bother with silencers on Flathead powered cars, it's so quiet.

Last week at the drags we were sat about twenty feet across from a group of Flatty powered cars on open headers and they were all quiet.
 
Love the engine stand, now don't run it long here. Might glaze the cyl walls and prevent the rings fron seating right. Get a load ont it..
