Kurt, both are true, perfect bore and operation. Both have complete tool kits and extra parts. They were exceptionally maintained. So I'm leaning towards the 944 as it's alot easier to move around. While the 905 isn't as bulky as a 977, it's still a beast. Just trying to find out if there...

I was lucky enough to score some great machine shop items in an auction. I had been searching for a boring bar (honestly because I was bored) and I ended up with two, along with other vintage machine shop stuff. I got a 944 and a 905. Both standard, not "super sucker" S models. My question...

Bump :) sorry no pics yet... cold and busy!

Will post pictures on 1-19-24 or 1-20-24 Selling excess parts due to a few cars being sold: Columbia 2 speed, 37-41, disassembled, cleaned and ready for bullet proof. All VERY nice. Includes everything for the rear, side to side. Use your ring and pinion. No front controls. $1500 Firm, it's...

Looking for passenger side for a Tudor. Should be the short one. If you have a long one, I can cut it down. Thanks!!! Brandon

Hey Frank, it's got domed pistons and the proper domed heads. But the heads are cast iron, not aluminum so it's my understanding that they are truck heads. Reading the chart on Vanpelt it looks like the truck heads had slightly higher compression but who knows. I'll take a look at the Ross...

And this is why I ask sstuff here... someone figures out the math faster than I can... Thanks for the detail on this!!!

Thanks Gramps!!!! Sincerely appreciate the expert help. Also been reading my '51 Edition How to Hop Up F&M V8 Engines...

Hey All, So I've got the 35 Tudor project and it has a 37 21 stud. I'm pretty much restoring the car and adding a little Hot Rod to the engine, but trying to be pretty correct for the era. I've got some Miller pump block off plates and air cleaners. Obviously for looks... So, to get a...

So here's some updates on the 35... Just a little Gibbs Brand sprayed in the cylinders and on the lifters, let it sit for two days and the engine rotated nicely! I've got 90% of the sheet metal stripped and haven't found any rust or filled "junk". The layers turned out to be factory primer...

Forgot to reply back but I did what you said. And immediately found out it was the wheel bearings... Me thinks my Uncle didn't wrench on it since he got it in 1968 or whatever... Gooder than new now. Thanks for the advice!

Just wanted to follow up to everyone on what the deal was on the rear. So turns out both axles had their teeth beat to heck. They were sharp as razors and basically ground down. I'm pretty sure whoever put it together had the clearances all wrong and it finally died. Luckily, through people...

Hey early Ford fans... So I happened along this 35 Tudor for sale and took a chance. Boxes of parts, drivetrain intact... your typical "stalled project". No real clue on how long it's been out of comission but some misc boxes have dates from the 80's. It's passed through a couple owners but...

Mart, I am lucky that this is a very clean "original" car. Someone had took the time to at least detail the rear, nice safety wire around the torque tube bolts. I have another 41 I need to install/swap a columbia 2 speed so I figure I'll learn the first steps on this one. I don't have any...

Ok based on the comments and Mart's explanation of some testing, I believe the spiders took a dirt nap. Both tires off ground in neutal, they do turn opposite, but clunky, and then one will stop and freewheel the other way then clunk and go back opposite. One tire off ground (drivers) with...
