I wrote up an article about using the airmaze with a K&N if it's of any interest. http://www.foxvalleymarc.com/Tech_section/k_n_filter.mht No noticeable loss of power or enrichening and at least I know its filtering a little. I think in the future I am going to better seal where the airmaze...

Some things to consider. If you have a stock head, you'll get less MPGs than the folks with high compression ones do. Also, are you sure your odometer is accurate? Could be off a bit? Additionally consider the following if checking mileage over a period of time; you have evaporation...

My Rustoleum Roadster < link to picture, still looks presentable. I have to touch it up every once in a while, but I bought it 6 years ago with this paint job and it looks like it was painted a LONG time ago. Maybe some day I'll make it pretty, but my kids still like to climb on it, and I...

Just my 2 cents, but I believe the Model A, is regarded in the same way a VW Beetle is. It was (and is) an inexpensive (relatively), reliable car. They aren't fast, flashy, rare and have no bragging value, HOWEVER those of us with them know their worth. I say let the snobs turn their noses up...

I belong to both, but am active in MARC, because the region is closest to me.

I wrote up an article and have it on our club website, ARTICLE HERE I used a K&N HA-3094. Harry K - Fox Valley Region-MARC

I am also interested. The setup I have now, an airmaze with K&N filter is in the way of the Aermore whistle I want to install. This highboy looks like I can still have a filter AND clearance.

After checking their website today, I am pretty my station was affected, but not sure if I got the bad stuff. I recall the night I bought the fuel, that they only had premium, all the regular and mid-grade were marked as OUT. I recall reading later that only the lower grades were affected...

Still got it? I'll take it.

Andrew, as long as the body wood is good, I think you got a really good deal. Looks from the pix to be a good solid car. Some cleaning up and you've got a fun driver for the summer. Welcome to the club! Also, I always recommend joining up with a local Model A club. There is TONS of support...

Bill, welcome to the wonderful world of creating a website! Firefox did not display much, but IE 8 did work fine. As far as it not working on other browsers, I am guessing that Microsoft didn't validate (or attempt) operation with other web browsers. I've been using the web development...

Salt and idiots on the road would be my 2 biggest deterrents from driving an A daily. If I were in a warmer rural area, it would be a consideration. Working in the Chicago area, you take your life in your hands in a modern car they way people drive around here. Heck if you are going ONLY...

I have one of those new ones, I bought it on e bay a while ago, but haven't gotten around to permanently installing it. I did notice that it does require some engine revving to get decent sound and it's a higher pitched sound over the Aermore. I don't like having to hack off a couple of...

101 and she changes oil and spark plugs! EXCELLENT!

I converted my roadster to a rumble from a trunk. As far as safety goes, it really isn't that much more dangerous than any other Model A really. Look where the passengers sit in a sedan, right in the rear of the car. With the exception of not being ejected as easily, as the rumble, or any...

I agree, keep it simple. The ONLY crazy mods I did to my car was add an alternator and halogen headlights as I wanted to be able to drive at night safely. ( YES I KNOW THIS IS A CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC, but I can easily put back to stock). Otherwise it is as original as possible, the parts...

Congrats! What a way to propose.

I have a Taylor filter and the oil inlet is achieved by pulling the plug out of the block by the oil pump. It's regular pipe thread so that part is easy. For the oil return, you'll have to be a bit more creative. You'll need to find a point that is lower than the oil pump plug so gravity...

Thanks for sharing, looks like it was a blast!

Thanks for posting. Incredible to see a car in that condition after 80 years! Remember folks, this was just an old used car for a many, many years, but somebody had the foresight to preserve it and now it's something spectacular! Imagine buying say, a Ford Focus today, and keeping it up...
