    8ba wide belt length size- no generator

    V8coopman we drag raced both cars and boats but filling the block was for the big boys. Pushing the limits on cylinder walls with huge bores and stronger wall for crazy compression. My buddy’s ProMod had an Donovan all aluminum block and still he blew it into pieces crazy. I bet this is for...

    8ba wide belt length size- no generator

    Aussie Merc I was thinking the same thing as I had figured he would be using a idler generator pulley setup . Even when using a mag you still need cooling. I wonder if you could use a tension pulley setup upside down on the generator mount as a belt tension

    8ba wide belt length size- no generator

    I used a 5L540 wide belt on my setup and it’s a 8cm with 8rt water pumps also using a 1937 generator 2 brush with a late 39 truck pulley . So your not running a generator, may I ask how your generating power. I ask because so many ways to skin a cat and can learn so much from others

    Repro Parts No Longer Available

    I never understood the desire for aftermarket parts and restoration called for original parts to be “restored” . I understand the need for some parts but you can almost build a whole car now. With so many other resources such a Model A clubs and its members, national meets, restoration shops...

    Used hood - Cost?

    They are all over the place but 100 would be a good price. Last swap seen one for 400 and another for 30 and it was sold.

    A few aftermarket ones posted by another barner and Rexaco made a nice mount and looked factory like the appco. Also we have one on our column and is also a 1930 accessory mount

    What's needed to put in a 8BA replacing a 59A

    As @tubman has said you’re going to need a matching set of bell and starter plate. As for the rest of the motor original motor mounts will work and just a bolt on. The use of early heads on a late motor will make you’ll need a few modifications . There’s a hole in the block for water that will...

    302 in a 33/34 pickup

    As said the 289 302 fits nicely with the correct parts. I have put a few into the early fords and used a mechanical fan. My list of parts are from the ford motor sport book . This would be the the short water pump and pullies . I also used the 90 degree adapter for the oil filter and even use...
