'47 G, any information?

Hi, I posted on the 48-56 forum.
I thought I would try here too.
Can anyone tell me about this engine and drive line?

the trans is a 3 speed
looks like head gasket issues?

Hi,
I have two inline flathead engines, one is a '47 G series with a cast BH, clutch, 3speed side loader, and torque tube.

The other engine is a '49 H series, no drive line.

Will the '47 drive line fit the '49 without major surgery?

The bolt pattern is the same on the back of the H and G engines.

There is a lot of discussion on this subject here:
