My biggest issue with getting the correct Flathead is that the US version by 1943 was using 24 head studs, finding one in the UK is rather difficult, I may have to resort to importing a couple from the US. As far as I can determine Dagenham production never took up the 24 stud mods and stayed with 21 studs right up into the 1950s when Flathead production stopped.
