A little follow-up:
Cool videos! I don't know much about the Flatheads. How much power can they make or what is the most power anyone has gotten out of them? You just don't see them around anymore much so I assume they are limited by their age and design.
They're not much more than a lawn mower engine. Simple, reliable, low on power.
That second time-lapse video was fun to watch.
Very cool. I have a 51 Ford with a mercury flathead.
I saw a flat head down at XXX Root beer cruise in. Had Zora Arkus-Duntov heads on it crazy shit!

Ardun Flathead V-8 OHV Conversion Kit Being Auctioned at Mecum Indy
The 2022 Mecum auction at Indy will be offering up a very rare Ardon OHV-equipped, Weber-carbureted flathead V-8 engine. Created in the late 40s, this rare upgrade increased the output of the legendary flathead Ford.
Cool videos! My dad has a 35 Phaeton and a 39 Convertible Sedan with flat heads. I think they're rated at 85 HP.
