from 1963 to 1969 Chrysler of Brazil was building flathead Fords with hemi heads derived from Arduns


Found on  https://www.facebook.com/groups/1631935880418477/?fref=nf


the Simca Aquilon, Super Typhoon, and Emi-Sul, rare engines today, but important at the beginning of our auto industry.
The Aquilon was the first V8 made in Brazil for passenger cars. It came after the 272, but that was only available to commercial vehicles. The Aquilon also came from Ford, and its architecture, with flat heads and side valves, faithfully repeated the flathead engine.
