[Gmecm] flathead ford files?

[David Allen]

I have done this! Got a 1944 4.0L Ford / Lincoln flathead running under TBI with 1227747 ECM.

The car hasn't been tuned or driven yet because the clutch and brake pedals and shifter aren't ready. The manifold is a real work of art.

Some pictures are here:

The engine:

The only problem is, the engine has an awful cam in it and I don't think it will ever run smooth unless this is replaced.

Sincerely,
David

  I don't know but it would be a favorite of mine as I have always loved the old "Flat Heads", first engines/cars I ever worked on.

           Hey with the nostalga craze, I wonder if anyone has done a old ford flathead  using a gm computer--there are electronic distributors on the shelf for them.  maybe something like a 3.5 rover hotwire system would be the closest, but yes im aware rover uses lucas stuff.
