Hello Aaron, great video. We are rebulding a flat head here in Chile. Far away, very dificult to find spare parts. I have a question if you dont mine, the plugs that goes in the crank, is difficult to find them here, it is possible to change for thread bolt? Thanks again, great video.

[@aarondominguez4533]

Ola Alvaro, yes you can thread the holes and use threaded plugs.

Is safety wiring the main caps bolts a standard or ?

[@aarondominguez4533]

If I remember right, it was common on the earlier flatheads, on the later 8BAs it's more common to have lock washers.

Aaron, you mentioned a book for your clearances. What’s the best book in your opinion?

[@aarondominguez4533]

Hi @836mar, probably Ford Flathead Engines from Mike at H&H Flatheads.
