Jim
Thank you !
I had given up finding this info before trying this site and getting your answer.
I don't think that info is anywhere else on the internet.
Very much appreciated.
I see that my motor is near the end of the 1940-1948 production.
Does this mean that I can use a 1946-1948 car head gasket?
Thanks
Boter

PS I Now remember buying motor mounts for my Model K from you some years ago.

You can use a car head gasket if it is copper or at least has copper liners in the water passages.

Thank you Jim
I sometimes think it was not a good idea to pursue this motor but when I have support like this-its great.

Boter,
You should do fine with that Ace. I ran one for 4 years in a 27' Cris Craft Super Deluxe when the original Crown was out for work. It was the hipo Special version, sodium valves and all. Reliable, adequate speed and pulled a skier.
