I see a 1954 Kaiser Darrin sports car at auction today on the Hemmings site ..... interesting car for sure (and a lot of work to be done and parts located for this particular offering today). Anyways, they had a 6-cylnder F-Head Willys engine of 160 cubic inch displacement. Most of you probably know that the F-Head design had the intake valve 'overhead' in the engine's head while the exhaust valve was in the block, so a side-valve (or flat-head) design. Anyone here ever have any experience with an engine of this type I wonder?
Below is an article about the engines and their features, the good and the bad ones and why/how they showed up in the first place. Also info on some of the vehicles that used these engines. Interesting stuff ..... a long read but for those who have time, a well-written article followed by some discussion forum comments, etc.
