How exactly do you keep the crank inside the oil pan? Seems like you must have one hell of a girdle setup.

Respect! The 92 year old design still rocks! It held and still holds records in every form of racing, land or water. Guys like Don Garlits, Victor Edelbrock, Ed Iskendarian, Stu Hillborn, Bruce Crower, Doug Thorley, etc. Etc. Cut their teeth on these! John Dilinger even wrote a letter to Henry Ford praising the Flathead V8!

Does it have an extra pair of exhaust pipes coming out of the top for the middle cylinders? I gather that's a relatively recent speed trick for Flatheads - it helps open up the long constricted exhaust passages through the block.
@melodigrand
@melodigrand 3 жыл бұрын
Actually a rather old trick, done since the 50s anyway. The center exhaust ports would be split, one now routed out the top, the other out the original port. Those may be the top port exhaust pipes just under the blower at mid engine.

Is that for 1320 feet (quarter mile) or for a1000 feet?. My old dragster was owned by Stan Lomilino and it set the national record in 1967 at 9.00 160 mph at the Indy Nationals. No transmission and injected. 98% Nitro 2% alcohol. I learned a lot of tricks for flatheads from that guy.

This and all our runs were 1/4 mile,. Back in the 90’s we raced against Joe Hendricks who had an in-line Ford 6 with a pieced together Cleveland head. I believe Stan was part of his crew.
