Topic: Candian v8and transmission

  I have a 33 Canadian Ford Engine and transmission with aluminum heads
It has a brass plaque on it saying it was a Ford factory rebuild in 1940
The guy I bought the car from 10 years ago said it fired up by pouring gas down it but didn't run it long for fear of overheating it
I was wondering if you could tell me what it might be worth or should I dismantle it to check for cracks or would it be more cost efficient to get it rebuilt and then selling it.
It has everything on it except the air cleaner. It turns over and I have been making sure i roll it over by hand frequently. I keep oil in the cylinders. I'm afraid to remove the heads for fear of damaging them. It has the transmission too
Thank You

  Some pics would help . Some unique stuff on a real 33 motor . Numerous different aluminum heads also . Do yours say " Made in Canada " on them ? Does it have a 1 barrel carb ? Again pics would help a bunch . What area are you in ? That will probably affect price also .
