Bob, methinks you doth profess too loudly. This is not uncommon amongst Chev owners, who by their very nature have a inferiority complex trying to compete with the Ford V8.

Bob, Bob, Bob....facts is fact. The Ford Flathead engine itself is a work of art and engineering. Sure, it requires proper tuning, as does any engine. But done by the book, the engine will idle so smooth that you won't hear it running. I know I have hit the starter at times thinking the engine has stalled.

The only Chevs in my yard are when there is no alternative. Had they made a Ford HUP, then I would have one. There are 3 in total: the HUP, the Deuce, the 5/4 ton, and there is a 8.2l diesel in the MLVW. There's also the wife's corvette. Fortunately I have a drain pan for each.
