- Whenever I come back from the races, I always get an odd thought in my head. This time it is a rules type question in a class that I will never compete in. It has to do with watching NTIII and Flatfi

- Dr. As I understood it Ron Main was in XF/BFS and Jack was running gas. Some years ago when Ron Main first ran his "flathead for the 21st century", it caused much outcry, as did the roadster he ran i

- A modification to flatheads that I saw at the drags was to fabricate an intake manifold that allowed an exhaust pipe to be attached to the heat riser passage in the block giving them four pipes on a

- Dr. Mayfield; I don't speak for the SCTA and anything I say is only my thoughts. In 1978 I started running a twin turbo 270 GMC in a 32 five window. At that time, as now, superchargers were defined a

- Not an odd question. This is a problem within every amateur racing venue: the problem of keeping costs equalized and reasonable. Within the Flathead ranks two schools of thought prevail. Grind ports

- Well, that does sound odd. But is a long way from the flatfire motor. But again, this was only an odd question from me. I though there would be a simple answer to it, but I suspect the real truth lie

- See, I knew there was an answer! Has been done before is always a good starting point. How did some of the old tries work out? Were they done back in the days of the flathead production or recently?

- Dr. Mayfield; It has been farily common to see Flatheads with the # 1-2 & 7-8 exhaust ports boared through the ends of the block to give them a shorter and strighter route. The next deal was to weld
