I have a (somewhat) stock B engine with a Steve Serr overhead conversion and a high volume oil pump that creates 30psi pressure to the galley after the full flow filter . Once the oil reaches the galley there is not enough oil pressure to pump oil through the external line to the head to oil...

Took my cast iron Cragar head to be pressure tested and as I suspected it is cracked. It is leaking from the water jacket into the exhaust port from around the #2 and 3 exhaust guides. Anybody have any experience repairing this type of crack?

I've got a rebuilt B block with a Cragar head. Virtually all of it is rebuilt or new including re-ground cam and new lifters. I've had a lot of break in problems with the side draft weber carb. I've got one loud lifter at all rpm. So with the exhaust valves set at .013 on the number one...

Has the final issue of FAST Magazine been published and mailed out?

I can't seem to find any replacement tack strip material to go inside the 28-29 top irons. Does anyone have any suggestions for replacement material? Nobody seems to sell this stuff

Many years ago there was a thread here that talked about the correct order of installation of the fender, radiator, hood shelf, radiator shell, etc. on the 26-27 model T. I've searched for that thread but can't seem to find it. Can anyone tell me the correct order of installation?

Having read Jim Brierley's book many times over, I see he recommends that you plug 4 of the water holes in the B block to support the head gasket. The picture in the book isn't all that clear so I thought I'd ask before I have this done. If I use the head gasket as a guide, it's the four holes...

I'm installing a cast iron Cragar head on a B block and I'm using bolts rather than studs due to firewall clearance. If I install the bolts beginning from the rear and working forward with just enough threads to get them started, the left front hole in the block will not line up enough to get...

I'm looking for a flywheel for the Model B engine in my Model T roadster. I have a lightened flywheel in mind but it is a Model A (along with a balanced V8 clutch). So, before I buy, it can anyone tell me if Model A and B flywheels are fully interchangeable? I'm using a Model B flywheel...

Does anyone have a recommendation for wire wheel repair and straightening in the Los Angeles/So Cal area? I have several 16" Kelsey Hayes wire wheels that I would like to have straightened and trued before I have them powder coated or painted.

Is the Long Beach Model T Club going to have their swap meet this year?

Anybody have any info on the HCCA Holiday Motor Excursion this year? I believe it is typically the first Sunday following Christmas. Location same as last year -Irwindale Speedway?

I posted a question similar to this on the early V-8 forum but thought I'd test the waters over here thinking I will get a somewhat different answer. My generic question concerns a Model A with a closed driveline. Given that the rear end angles up toward the trans at about 3 to 5 degrees, where...

My generic question concerns almost any early ford with a closed driveline. Given that the rear end angles up toward the trans at about 3 to 5 degrees, where is that angle established? Is the angle built into the crossmember or is it built into the spring hangers? Some other means?

I'm hoping soneone out there can tell me how to remove the lever from my Houdaille shocks. They are unknown year but probably 42-48 fronts and rears with the external adjuster. It looks like the are simply pressed on to a splined shaft but for once I thought I'd ask before I ruined the first...

I have a model B engine which I bought as a core to be rebuilt. It is a diamond block that has been re-sleeved back to standard bore and has bronze (or possibly copper) cam bearing inserts. It has not been magnafluxed or pressure tested or even cleaned yet. It has what looks very much like a...

Every year the Horseless Carriage Club of So Cal holds their Holiday Motor Excursion on the first Sunday following Christmas. I think this is one of the finest events we have here in so cal. I see they have changed the start location for this year... Although the date is not mentioned on the...

I have a set of 19" wire wheels that are said to be 1931 Chrysler/Dodge/De soto. The bolt pattern is very close to Ford 5 on 5 1/2. While I wouldn't be so brazen as to install them on a stock Model A, while trying to sell them the question "will they fit a Ford?" often comes up. Does anyone...
