Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Model A engineMike,I found my Ford A engine on Ebay for $100.00. A very fortunate find because it turned out to be a very good one. You have to be careful because I bought a block before that, that was cracked. I then took it to Antique Engine Rebuilders in Skokie IL. to be rebuilt. I was very pleased with the result fromthem. The bill was about $2600.00 as I remember. Then I had to buy a aluminum head. I bought mag drives and prop hub from Ken Perkins in Kansas. Contact meoff-list if you need more details.
