How long did it take Ed to find parts for this 1938 Flathead?

About a year. Asked to name one part of the job that went easy, Ed has nothing. He got the main bearings after 3 months from people willing to supply the specific ones he needed, not a whole set, and says he wants to give them credit one of these days.
