What does a cut-open early aluminum factory Ford Flathead head show?
Steve has not run the number on it, but because the 1932 head had a heart-shaped chamber he puts this one at 1933 or 1934, maybe as late as 1936. Like the others, it is cut right down the spark plug holes, so you can see how the water passages and the chambers were designed.
