Okay, not exactly AMC six related, but thought the flat-head six lovers might like to see this! Flat-heads aren't dead yet!!

Aeronca had the old E-2 engine based on similar archetecture in the 1930's.   Joe

 At $18,500, it cost about the same new as it cost to overhaul a Continental 0-200,  but the estimated time between overhauls is 1300 hours verses 1800-2000 hrs. on a 0-200.

Interesting engine, water cooled, very economical fuel use.
