Just got my motor back from the machine shop and started checking things over and noticed that there isn't any end play in the crank (none at all) also the front cam bearing seems very loose, you can actually grab the cam gear and move the cam a good 1/16" in all directions. the bearing looks...

Has anyone ever tried putting rubber o rings on the shafts to keep oil from leaking past the shafts? i was thinking of placing them behind the stops or cams whatever there called that bolt to the hogs head where the peddal shafts go through. Also i noticed that the high/ low/ nuetral peddal...

I'm in the proccess of rebuilding my 1950 8ba. this will be my first flatty and i'm looking for some advise on the valve guides, the old guides came out pretty easy just some lite tapping on an old socket and they dropped right out. Now that everything is all cleaned up you can simply push the...

Hey guys, i need to replace the low gear drum in the transmission as the bands were so worn the rivets had dug in and ripped it up pretty good. I asked the guy that is redoing my motor if it can be turned and he said it was to far gone, so my question is are the low speed drums the same in my...

I just went for a second ride in my recently purchased 26 tudor, about 2 miles into my journey the motor started banging. it sounded like a rod was letting loose. so i pulled over and clicked it off. When i got out to look, the first thing i saw was antifreez coming out the bottom of the...

My model t has a Bergs water pump that is leaking where the shaft goes into the pump housing. i tried tightening up the threaded nut that supports the shaft thinking that there may be a packing inside that would seal up, but to no avail. Now i'm wondering if this leak is normal or is the pump...
