I,ve been taking a closer look at my flathead V8 and found a few interesting things
1, I have a 4" stroke
2, I have adjustable lifters
I am wondering if I have a standard cam, I measured the valve lift and both inlet and exhaust are .310", Dose anyone know what the standard cam lift was
The engine was built in Canada model C1BA
If you have the timing cover off the engine. Look at the front of the camshaft. It should say EAB-A or 8BA-B. If it doesn't you don't have a stock ford camshaft. This only applys to the 49-53 engines.
