If you have Ardun heads on your flathead is it still consider a flat head? Can you fun in the flat head classes?

The class is XXF, provided we're talking a Ford Flathead.  OHV conversion of a Ford or Mercury Flathead.  It's a different class.

Freud,

Do you mean the "Spirit of the rule"?

Tom G.
I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.
