Big Block Ford
Here is the next engine in line for casting. I’m not sure what it is, it came from an old ford grain truck. I might be able to find a serial number once it’s cleaned up.

The White Truck
This is the grain truck that the above engine came from. I don’t know what year it is but I do know that I hated driving it. It seemed to have a mind of its own veering left or right without warning. Very scary at highway speeds when full of grain. So when it was retired I was offered the engine, while I was pulling the engine I kinda felt like I was stealing it’s soul.
Three Deuce’s
This is the latest Ford Flathead and the first engine that I have done with an attached transmission. Finished in the beginning June 2010, just in time to be shipped to the York Quay Center in Toronto. The term “three deuce’s” refers to the the three double barreled carburetors that sit on top of the engine. The engine is entirely ceramic, each part slip-cast from molds taken from a real engine, then glazed and reassembled.
