Today we are starting a new mini series that will help answer a lot of questions we receive about what engine to use for their hot rod build. The answer to this question is quite broad which makes it difficult to answer. We are going to be doing a video that covers each of the common hot rod motors that were used through out the years. Today's spotlight is on the Ford Flathead, which is one of our favorite motors. Matt walks us through the three distinct generations of the Flathead and the differences between them. Matt also talks about what to look for when buying a flathead, where to look for cracks at, and rough price ranges he likes to stay in when buying engines. The speed equipment for a Flathead can range from the common intake you see at every swap, all the way to the rarest of the rare. Matt walks us through what to look for when buying speed equipment and some of the more common brands. Finally Matt talks about his favorite Flathead powered Hot Rods that he has drawn inspiration from over the years. Be sure to comment with any Flathead knowledge you think we missed, and what other engines should we cover!!!
