Talk:Lincoln V12 engine

L-head and flathead
The article on flathead engine currently reads in part As the cylinder cross-section has the shape of an upside-down L, this leads to other names: L-block, or L-head. Similarly, L-head currently  redirects to flathead engine.

However, this DAB seems to distinguish between 1932–1942 L-heads and 1936–1948 Flatheads.

Clarification needed by an expert on US automotive terminology. Andrewa (talk) 15:57, 15 October 2011 (UTC)
