Hot rod might become a reality for me. I'm thinking about selling the Mustang, and have located a '29 A roadster with my choice of flathead V8 or Dodge 241 Hemi.

A 241 Dodge Hemi is the epitome of cool.

I like the early Hemis, I kind of want it. But it was the pariah of early Hemis, my logical side says I should request the flattie if it's the right version.

I'd go with:



Maybe because I've got one in the motor home. Unblown, but it's got the Carter side-draft carburetor they used in the '54 Corvette.

Actually some of the Australian Hemi slant sixes are on my short list of engines I'd love to put in one (the list actually isn't that short. But it's picky )
