Hi all, I recently put a Police Hi-Compression head on my 30 tudor. The pistons each had a "40" stamped on them, assuming they were bored out at some point. Modern points installed. Everything else is stock. RUNS GREAT!!! Would the above modifications change the customary GAV 1/4 turn open...

Hi all, I just put a Police B head on my 30 A. I LOVE IT!!!! However, it seems to idle faster. Does that sound right? When I pull the timing lever down till it starts to run bad, and then back it off a little, it seems to be idling faster then my stock head did. The idle sounds normal when...

Hi all. So I need to replace my crank pulley, going with a one piece. I removed the motor mounts screws, ****** frame mount screws, and gas pedal assembly. The gas pedal assembly was hitting the fire wall when I was jacking the motor up. I jacked the motor up all the way till the rear head...

Hi all, Banky again. On my first Model A. Question: I am replacing my fan that blew apart on me. No fatalities, I was lucky. Anyway, it is a two piece pulley. The inner piece, closest to the block, is snug in against the block. The second piece, which includes the fan belt pulley can move in...

Hi all, I need to replace my fan and pulley. Got an aluminum two blade from Snyders. I also got the fan removal tool that screws onto the water pump shaft. Can I remove my fan from the water pump shaft without removing the water pump from the head? Or can I possibly break where the fan shaft...

Hi all. Just wondering how you set your air/fuel mixture dial for driving? What seems to be the best setting? I am running at 1/4 turn open. Or is this one of those "ever A likes a different setting?". (Not talking about opening the choke) Thoughts?

There was just a post about this! And dam if it didn't just happen to me yesterday. One of the blades cracked off where it meets the pulley. Hit the ground, no harm, but it scared the **** out of me and COULD have been bad. I pulled over to inspect the damage. The other fan blade had a very...

Hi all, My 1930 stock tudor runs pretty good! However, my top speed going up a hill is about 25. Is this pretty much the norm, or do I have an issue? Lots of newbie questions from me, this is my first A. And I like the drive train stock, no other sound like it! thanks, Banky

Hi all, I finally got my A on road after a year or refreshing everything my wallet could stand. LOVE driving it. My question: How much downshifting is ok to do? Doesn't seem to like it much. I just been letting the current gear I'm in slow it down, then put it in neutral and use the brakes to...
