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:

Electronics:

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.
