Default Thanks

Thank you for that. Ex-WD/Ministry of Supply flathead V-8s were plentiful in the late Forties here but I have no information about Chevrolet engines. By the mid-Fifties there were very few Chevies being imported but jump ten years and those that were donated their V-8s to oval racers, drag racers, etc. as the cars had rusted. Contrast that with the Ford engines that were ideal for custom cars, racers etc.
