finally got to meet him
way up there in his years but in good health, he gave a tour of his shop, very impressive and he does anything they bring him
has two flatheads and the book for the chysler cars in 44 or so
they showed a 241.5 250.6 and 323.5 which is the eight cylinder
the 251 which he claims he has even tho it came off of ww2 winch boat with the winch cuz at one time he had determined that it was the 251 cuz it was rated at 120 hp, as per it s rating in the chrysler repair manual can t remember how, he still uses it and has been using since 44 or so and rebuilt it once to .40 over
he luvs it and it is his favorite motor
he also has a running 230 that he starts up everynow and then just in case he needs it
