What is the cid of my `51 V8 flat head.Also, where would I list it to sell.(I`m way down in Miami) It was rebuilt, has 0 miles and I`m tired of moving it around the shop.

Your flathead V-8 is 239.4 cubic inches and 100 HP. You probably could sell it fast on ebay.

 

Thanks for the info Matta. What is a restored flat head(239.4) worth?

Bill in Miami.

 

I'ts value depends on the quality of the rebuild. I would say at least $900.00-$1000.00 or more. It is probably an 8BA and they are getting hard to find.

 

Thanks again Mantta.

Try listing it with vintage ford clubs, you will get alot of activity. I sold a 51 merc engine and O.D tranny with 77545 original miles for $2700.

 

8BA? 239 cubic inches. (ford)
8CM? 255 cubic inches (mercury)

 

Hey Bill,
Do you still have the flathead and are you still interested in selling it? Also, who rebuilt it for you, I have one that is ready for a rebuild also. thanks!
Larry
