I have a 1938 flathead v8 with a Sofabex primable fuel pump that has started leaking. Canot find any infromation on the pump, purchased from Vern Tardel years ago. Made in France part numbers on pump are 7915 other number 336 ,Thanks for any help on this.

Unfortunately the one I found didn't work out,so I'm still looking . Any help is appreciated Thank you.

Well once again I'm still looking for a shift fork. I thought I found one,but it didn't work. I do want to thank the gentleman for his help,but any help I can get on this project would be appreciated.

I had a member on the swap meet tell me he was an engineer and mentioned that.don't know if he tried it or not. I accidentally deleted the message, I'm not real computer savvy.

I think it's a sign of the time's we are in , everything has gone up in price.

Thanks for the help, I found one, waiting on mailman now.

$100 would have been a good price js

Thanks for the reply, I actually found one on the swap meet side of The Barn. Those are very hard to find for sure. Your idea for the swap meets is a good one, but where I live, there's just not that many here that I can get time to go to.

Hope everyone is having a good day, I've almost finished rebuilding my transmission with the help of Mr. Van Pelt , but on our last conversation,he figured out I had a homeade shift fork. If anyone has an affordable 91A7230 shift fork it would be very helpful.Thanks for your help on this.

Need one of the prized 91A7230 3" shift fork. I know it will probably be a little spendy,please try not to cause the wife to faint. Thanks for the help on this.

Still having problem shifting into 2nd gear.Shift tower works as it should,what I have found is alot of space in the scynchronizer.I did the dime trick I read about to measure it.In one part of the book it says not to use rear oil baffle in the open drive section it says to use it.the...

Well finally found the 91a shift fork installed it and now when I put it in 3rd gear it feels like its rubbing on the synchronizer. I'm turning it by hand and there is a drag on it.Looks like it is rubbing on the front face of the fork, what have I done wrong on this.

Well I finally got my trans put together and I will need to have my driveshaft shortened about 3 in allowing for 1 in of slack on the tail shaft.I have a 2 piece driveshaft with a small carrier bearing and a slip joint at the rear end. What amount of slack do i need to have in the rear slip joint.

I cleaned up all the parts .it is the complete set,They are a little worn but not bad.I have the 68-7222 housing and the truck shifter lever,still have'nt found the 91a fork.Will try to do a dry fit on everything this weekend.Thanks again for all the replies.
