Earl Myers is correct bigtime when he says Wil Graff's Piet Ford runs flawlessly. You are talking about a guywho has been restoring Ford cars for years and years.He knows his stuff. Wil is in Wadsworth Ohio and a Wadsworth EAA chapter member.Another guy who is a Ford genius is Lowell Frank fromWisconsin. Lowell Frank has built two Piets- one witha inverted Funk engine still running strong after 10 yearswithout being touched...now owned by JoBeth and PaulBarrett of WI, and Lowell's dark blue Ford speedsterPiet which he still flies. Both of Lowells planes were at Osh. for the 70 yr. Anniv. Look in back issues of the BPANfor a great article which Lowell wrote on how he doeswhat he does. The Fords can be and should be reliableand somewhat powerful if you get with the right folks anddo it the way they do it.
