This months Hot Rod mag. has one with a V-12 Lincoln. Cool as hell. IMO there has never been a prettier motor than a decked out flat head & a nail head Buick. A really "souped up" flat head just sounds bad ass! I don't know why, maybe the Siamese exhaust ports. There is a blown flat head Ford 8N tractor that comes to Turkey Run & it sounds like a full blown race car. Then, on the other hand, back in the day (50s) a Y-block '32 wouldn't have been unusual. It would be different for sure. At any car show you go to you'll have the only one. Other than Moonshine Run in Dawsonville GA. it is unusual to see a '32 with anything but a SB Chevy. I expect a prepped flat head would probably be more expensive but either one would be a ton of fun....

Thanks for the input! I am going to put the flat motor in the car with a T-5, I can always do a Y-block if I don't like it.



Thanks again

Cheers, Don

Sounds like a good plan Don! Good luck with it.

That's the route I would've gone.
