How about some engine pictures!

Here's mine, as I found it and as it looks today. It's coming along slowly but I'm getting there.

OLE Bill , I have been trying to kill them 59ab blocks forover 40 years by hanging them from the bell housing & have not been successful in hurting 1 yet !!!
An OLE wives tale !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The weight & leverage factor of a fully complete blown BB Chev is way higher than a flathead & I havent hurt one of them either ! Nor have I ever hurt any 6 cyl engines hanging them that way ......... guess I,m jus lucky.
Cheers
Tony
Lucky? Yes. I disassembled 4 engines before I found a good block. Why take a chance.
 
Thanks Guys for all of the great pictures, Henry Ford would be proud to see how we have updated his engine! Merry Christmas to all my fellow Flatheads!
 
Here's my 59A block with 8RT heads and a Merc crank in my '35 woodie. Runs real well after 7 years and 6,500 mile of mostly summer driving.
