Jon.
Am actually in the process of collecting parts for the reincarnation of the "Wells" and have a Flathead and "Y" -which is a heavy lump but can make big torque (especially blown)! although i'm leaning towards a rover V8 which I can place further forward to reduce shaft angle and total weight. Total weight is an issue as these woodies are quite narrow and this tends to leave a bit of a wake, so the lighter the better. I have another 2 blowers and full chev manifold/drive kit but will not go chev in the Wells.
Spare time,
; We ski as a family and have racked up at least 50 hours/season for the past 3 seasons, I do like to build stuff though!!!!!!!!!Nerandera; Hmmmmmmmmmmm, have been looking at this for the last couple of years.
