a remodel 385" flat-head V-8 from the previous L-Series it produced 125hp; the all new Stromberg dual-barrel down draft carburetor and re-machined heads allowed Ford's engineers to obtain the power increase. To complement the revised engine Lincoln set other industry standards by using new "fork-an-blade" engine rods, an 3 piece cast iron block, "torque-tube drive" transmission, floating rear axle, "worm-and-roller" steeling, hydraulic shocks, mechanical fuel pump, and finally to complete these improvements an entirely new stronger chassis. This Lincoln is truly a spectacular car
