is there any studebaker experts around? a buddy has offered me a '48 flathead six (that i think is 168ci) w/overdrive really cheap. i thought it'd be a nice powerplant for a really light street machine...like maybe a crosley.

an aunt, back in the '50s, had a little champion and i remember her bragging about the mileage. i've seen aluminum heads and intakes for this engine, from time to time. called the local napa store and they said parts are still available!

would like to hear from anyone who's played with these engines.

i'm 66 going on 16.....still crazy after all these years!


Lord, let me live long enough to do all the projects I have planned!
