Just aquired a flathead lincoln yesterday - anyone know where to find info and parts for it?? I have a 255 mercury and parts were no problem. Just searching for info makes my head swim - no info on google - need somewhere to start.
Thanks in advance.

I still have one of those sitting in a storage shed where it has been for 30 years.
Ford used the Lincoln flathead V8 in the larger trucks. Mine was a 48 model F8. The old flathead was developing some pretty bad overheating problems along with being quite worn, so I repowered the truck with a Ford OHV 332 FE series engine. I was supprised that the later V8 had less torque and little more power than the "Hotrod Lincoln". Looked about 1-1/2 times the size of the little Ford flathead motor. Smile

Next time you"re in town pick up a copy of Hemmimgs Auto News...it"s a thick brown-cover "magazine" (more like a 3/4" thick catalog)...it"s the bible of the old-car hobby, with more replacement stuff than you dreamed of. Good luck.
