ben, did you find an old aftermarket 4v for that y block, or a 57 312 cast
iron intake?

Subject: '60 15" Rims on '49 front swap

I have a question for you '48-50 aficionados. I may be going across
state to pick up a '49 F-1 and it needs tires to tow it. I have a '60
F100 that I could take the front tires off to bring with me to swap with
the '49 so that I can tow it. Am I within acceptable perameters? Fill
me in!
