jaxenro Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 In my quest to get documentation for making the Frontenac engine and parts I stumbled across this website. Might be old hat here but figured I would share it the early speed catalogs are fun to look at. If you look around there are lots of pictures of early board track and dirt track racers including a fun one in WWI camo colors https://www.chevroletbrothers.com/fronty-catalogs
misterNNL Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 Outstanding link. Thanks from a lifelong Chevy man!
Ironman63 Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 A very cool site with some great info. Like Tom, I'm a bowtie guy too. Thanks for the link.
misterNNL Posted May 21, 2019 Posted May 21, 2019 I forgot to mention that this is also a great link for modelers wanting to create unique engines for their speedsters. Those Frontenac valve covers are in the AMT '27 Ford kits.
jaxenro Posted May 21, 2019 Author Posted May 21, 2019 Yes it looks like the AMT kits contain the DOHC head. I am working on a set for the more common OHV version like shown below. I am sort of deciding between just offering the head, intake, exhaust, and valve cover, or the entire engine and including the oil pump and water pump. Plus the magneto. I would like to offer all the hop up parts separately as well. Then maybe the duel intake OHV head.
