I bought a 1940 Fordor with a more modern flathead in it. The heads are marked Mercury with the letters "EAC" cast into the center. Water outlets are at the front of each head. The engine has a distributor at the right front and a Ford 94 8BA carb. The block does not have a large bellhousing like the 1940 v8 block. What year and size is this engine? Thanks, Chris
