RE: FE vs. Windsor vs. Flathead!
By RC Moser - 12/27/2000 2:22:17 AM; IP 205.188.199.188
I'd say each time a new design came along they improved what was wrong with the old design. That's called progress. I don't think anybody will dispute that. After all if they didn't correct problems we would still be running flatheads! Which an't a bad motor, just a old design. Have you ever hear a 50 Merc or shoebox with a warmed over flathead with duel steel packs, sweetest sound I've ever heard. So what's the point you are tring to make? Some like Flatheads, an't nothing wrong with that. Some like FE's an't nothing wrong with that. Some like 385 series, an't nothing wrong with that. And SOME like SB's and windsors and their an't nothing wrong with that. So why try to push your assumptions on others. It's all about and era of time each person was in and what they consider neat and fast. ""NOTE KEY WORD "THEY" "" You have to respect that.
I disagree about FORD being a total failure, every Car maker had failures and still do, some of which is driver error, crew member mistakes, and material failure. This still happens today and I really don't think you can compare todays NASCARS of the early days when you got a car and knocked the windows out, put in some roll bars in and called it a race car, and your team was your brother, dad, or uncle and your budget was about 300 bucks and you still had to race the 500 miles.
This thread, so far...
