awd92gsx Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I thought somebody here might enjoy it... It's an old Ford 8N with a flathead V8 installed (circa 1948) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNeedForZ Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 OK...so...it's not a V8Z...but....RESPECT FAST MOVING FARM VEHICLES! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spdsk8r Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Speeking of fast farm vehicles, a friend of mine used to have a '55 Massy-Harris with twin Crower injected 440 Chryslers in it. He used it for tractor pulling. One time I followed him to the neighbor's farm, so he could get something mig welded on it. He was going 70+ down a gravel road (70 is all the faster I dared to go, and he was pulling away). They say the modified tractor pullers rear tires are going 200+ miles per hour during a pull.

zdmz Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I have a '49 Allis Chalmers model C, but it does not look anywhere near that nice. It looks like that flat head engine bolted in without having to use an adapter, pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike C Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Cool. I like the shorty headers, HPC coated and all! A lot of the V8 converts I've seen had zoomy pipes. I like this setup better. FWIW, here's a pic of my 2N before.... And AFTER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boodlefoof Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Looks great! My father-in-law has started collecting tractors and has three so far. They're a lot of fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
