Just put the sweet tune on the Continental flat head six in my Baker forklift, and it works great. The thing would overheat terrilble, like boiling after a few minutes of idling and the alternator never worked so it always needed a jump. Got the radiator rodded out, replaced a bunch of hoses, completely rewired the beast adding a six-circuit fuse block and added a new internal regulator GM alternator and a set of gauges from Harbor Freight. A Pertronix distributor and cut a set of Accel wires. Built an exhaust system with a glasspack and some mandrel U-bends (2-inch) to replace the old system that had a 90-degree hard fitting almost completely blocking the muffler, and leaky flex hose. Added a new air cleaner assembly. Tune the propane mixture and adusted the timing. Nothing like good old fashioned wrenching - it now starts as soon as you turn the key, and runs ice-cold.
