Now ain't that nice!The 'flathead' motor was made for the job, and sounds perfect.All together, an excellent,understated to the correct level, build, and the best I have seen for a while! it reminds me a little of a "Mr M" type build, don't you think?............Morrag

Saw that a little while ago and I still love it.
There was a Pilot, flathead V8 engine for sale in Portsmouth the other day.  I was very tempted.

Those engines always look strange to me, having four spark plugs and only three pipes on the exhaust headers. Nice workmanship.
