Hey, thanks Henry. So I could use that wire to turn on my dakota digital control box probably then huh?

Thanks Bruce, hey, what exactly is the purpose of the "gauge" terminal?

well, I got what I was looking for I think. Found it here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1775878&postcount=7

I really just need to know what wire goes to what terminal if anyone can help. Not COLORS! I can't use the factory wire colors because I'm obviously not using factory wiring. I just need to know what terminal does what.

Thanks Mike. I actually have that one, I was hoping for something a little more specific to the ignition switch itself. I'm rewiring the 41 with a 20 circuit universal harness.

Hey can anyone point me in the right direction for a good diagram for the original ignition switch in my 41 Deluxe coupe?

I was an over the road truck driver and an owner operator for 12+ years and everytime I got the oil changed in my truck I had the oil analyzed just to see how the motor was doing. Don't see why you couldn't go to any truck stop with a service plaza and get the same test. I imagine you could do...

Thx blucar. You have cleared it up for me with the first picture. I'm using it incorrectly. Have it turned in the wrong direction. At least according to ur pics I can turn it and it should work correctly so I can get the tabs off.

Thanks Henry, but perhaps my pic isn't quite as descriptive as needed. There's no place for a bolt. it's simply flat steel. When put in place it covers the shackles as well as the spring and I see no way to get the shackles off when it's in place. Seems too wide, in my opinion it should only...

Ok guys, I got my spring spreader but I think it's wrong. Look at the picture. That is the end that is supposed to hold the spring. When I mount it up on the spring still attached to the car, the end covers both the spring and the shackle tabs. That CAN'T be right, unless I'm missing something...

Yeah, I have the same problem with my bias plys. Mines ALL OVER the road. Especially if there are any grooves or truck ruts in the road, forget about it.

Hey guys, I'm looking for an inexpensive 2x2 or 3x2 intake for my 41 Flathead. I can easily find them new but I'm looking for something much less expensive with or without carbs. Brand isn't important

I was just making a point. An O2 sensor is an excellent tuning tool whether it be on your minivan or your Flathead. I'd rather have hard data that helps me tune my engine to get the maximum performance and economy out of it than just guessing at it. Telling someone they are an idiot for using a...

I second that! Excellent info especially to noobs like myself who are trying to learn as much as possible about these engines.

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone in the Phoenix AZ area planned on going to the show at the Pavillion this weekend? If so I'd love to meet up and convoy over there. I've never been and would like to go with some folks that maybe have gone, plus I think it'd be fun to cruise in with a few...

I've seen alot of people do faux woodgraining. From what I see it shouldn't be that difficult to do on ur own. I don't imagine it would be expensive materials wise either. Saw this on the AACA website, no credit to me: "I saw the Overhaulin episode again, it was aired 12/2/09 on the Discovery...

My 41 sits about that high, if u look at my thread I've got some pics u can see. Very 4x4ish lol.

Yea, that looks AWESOME! Exactly how I thought it would and I think you've convinced me, that's the way I'm gonna go with it. Soon as I get my console built ill take everything out and paint it all at once. Thank u for the pics. That dash is just gorgeous, looks like jewelry!

Couple more

Here's a couple more shots. I wanted to ask ur guys expertise, if u look closely at the back of the hood you'll see it doesn't sit quite right however I can't find any way to adjust it. Am I missing something? How can I get it to back up and lay down correctly?
