Super!

Here's 9 and 10 Easier than looking in each book. Thank you. Afordman31

I made this copying Tom Wesenburgs design to unstick my brothers Model A engine. This was made from a bad starters end bell using a old gear from a bendix. A nut was welded on the opposite end of the shaft going thru so it could be turned with a socket and breaker bar. My brother had the hand...

He did two of my engines.

It would have been nice if it had had a longer head bolt so the head nut would stay tight and to remove the one that holds the clamp down.

Thank you all for the information, I made a driver on my lathe and pushed out the bushings. The first one I tried didn't turn out as the top bushing was moving good down to the bottom one, the next thing I knew the bottom broke off the distributor. The next on I tried I heated the casting and...

It is called a interference fit!

Pictured are of the one I made to remove stuck and not stuck Model A heads. I have used this on a couple of heads and have loaned it out to others with great success removing the head. The chain is hooked to bolts that go thru two old Model A spark plugs with the porcelain removed. The bolts...

If I remove the rear end I have left the spring connected to the rearend. You want to mark the spring and the frame with a paint marker so when you install the rearend back in the car you will know that it is centered and the square head on the bolt that ties the leaves together go's back in the...
