Thanks for the responses. All good to know In my OP pictures what is the bigger hole for in the middle of the intake near the carb base ?

Working on a 59A with crab distributor The vacuum line was cut at some point and looks like the holes were filled in on the intake manifold. Using original single carb intake. I’m looking for advice/ information Can I drill and retap the holes ? What size line and what type of fittings will I...

Haven't had any lock locating the correct studs.

Correct about the swedging But can’t find the correct studs that will need to be swedged

The Dorman 610-234 studs won't work, to small The stud hole in the drum is 0.624 diameter. I'm trying to find the correct original wheel studs but not having much luck. I believe I'm looking for part number 48-1118 rear studs.

Got the seal out. Here are a few pictures of the inside.

Ok thank you I didn’t realize 35 drums could be used with hydraulic brakes. What wheel studs can I use to replace the two welded ones ? Are there any that don’t require swedging ?

A few more pics to help ID what I have. I will have to remove the seals to further inspect condition.

I Have a set of rear drums off of a 1935 coupe which has been converted to hydraulic brakes at some point. My plan is to get these turned, replace seals, check bearings and reuse. Wondering if someone can tell me what year these hubs are. Also looks like two of the studs I will have to...

Got my 59AB engine together and it starts up and runs fine. But after running it and bringing it up to temp if you shut it off it won't turn over. It tries and moves just a little bit then stops. If you let it sit for a few hours it will start just fine. I have a new starter and a rebuilt...

Here is what I have , bought it already assembled I think top and bottom got mixed up. Does anyone know where to buy a good quality one, this one seems pretty cheap. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

On my 1936 ford with 59 ab engine I installed a solenoid with the push button on the top of it. When I use this button things work fine, but when inside the car and I use the button on the dash the starter stays engaged and the engine will keep turning over until I disconnect the battery. Or it...

Where is the TSRA show?

Got a 59 AB engine that I rebuilt and started up on the floor to make sure things were good before installing it in the car. Using a rebuilt distributor by bubbas and a stromberg 97 carb that I rebuilt. The vacuum line was not hooked up. The engine started right up and idled fine but if I...
