Crankshafter   back in the fall I bought a 1930 model A ford that had a bad motor so I have seen busy overhauling the engine. I have that done now so I can get back on the engine.
 I have been looking at different way to build the valve train and would like to have all of the push rod  line up. For me  doing it this  way is the hard way. Here is a picture of the car and valve train I am thinking of using on the engine.

Nice car. Well done.

Hello Tom-

Can't say or add to anything that has not been said before.  Just another wonderful tutorial showing what can be done with just some simple weldments, bar-stock, and the guts to forge ahead and  do what needs to be done to make a USEFUL engine that will actually do something.

Thanks for sharing, and documenting all your failures and triumphs.  Very inspirational.  (My secret "bucket list" includes fabricating a larger scale, made-from-weldments/barstock, inline, twin, or, 3-cylinder, air-cooled engine).  Your tutorials showed me that it can be done.

That's a beautiful car.  :thumbup:

Can't add to Jim and Frank's comments.

Looking forward to more engine adventures.  :D

Tom,
Valve train looks fine to me, proven design so why re-invent the wheel.
