Mostly true, but the French military used
flatheads as late as the early ’90s and “ancient” flathead technology
has evolved to run over 300 mph at Bonneville. On the street, flatheads
are happy on today’s crappy gas, because that’s the only kind of gas
there was back in the ’30s

Bill, Do you still have the alternator mount that you mention in the comments section of the Precision Engine Flathead Ford build up article?

Great job on the engine. If you are interested I have a mount and Alternator that will fit in front of your carbs. It's a 1975 Chysler style but is narrower enough. I can send you a picture. If interested call Bill at 949-874-4402 or e-mail
bill@slaterbuilders.com I was going to put it on my engine but I have gone full retro and will be using an generator body with alernator inside, Bill
