Early series flatheads were cast with the bell housing integral with the cylinder block. Heads were attached to the cylinder block with hex nuts on studs, which were threaded into the block.All had an "eggshell" shaped distributor mounted to the front of the engine and driven directly off the camshaft. There were no Ford factory-built oil filter systems on these engines. Early models used the Detroit Lubricator carburetor. Stromberg "97" carbs were used from 1934 to 1938 at which point a change was made to the Ford designed "94" carburetor. The engine cooling fan was mounted to the generator shaft from 1932 through 1938. In 1938 Ford made new changes, the most obvious change being the use of 24 studs per head instead of 21 as previously used. The engine underwent various other changes as years passed.
