I beg your pardon? Weird motor, what weird motor? This is the 32 Plymouth
that I converted to overhead valves with the Y block head. Only now it's
converted back to flathead with my billet aluminum, lots of fins, twin plug
head. I know the top fuel cars run twin plugs so why not me?
For the intake I have noticed people converting to EFI so in an effort to
stay ahead of the curve I have installed the throttle body from a F150-351W
on the Ply but just so Dave won't think I'm caving in I converted it to
mechanical with Hilborn parts. Between that and the 2 1971 Pinto
distributors I think I have made my statement on electronics.
Other than that it's pretty much the same as it was. Next year when I
install the Graham blower, now that will be a little weird.  Rich
