Looks good to me Ryan. It’s like having a new 30’s ford with the excitement and bugs in one bag. Great job

As Conrad Rossi has noted. Yes it takes time to set up a search as he explained. But it works great. Once you have a search set up you can save it in your eBay home page and go to your searches whenever you like without imputing all that info.

Is your radiator holding pressure? Are you losing coolant between drives?

Re: Where’s my water going? You didn’t mention what year radiator but if its a designed non pressurized system your simply losing coolant when you get up to speed. Install a 4 pound rad cap and at the end of your overflow tube install a 2 pound brake residual valve. The valve is installed to...

Another option. Rent a small cement mixer and buy some polishing media. Cheap. The mixer must have an opening large enough but it’ll clean that tank quickly.

Are you running an electric fuel pump? Check your fuel pressure regardless of what you are using. Should be no more than 2-1/2. Many times the residual pressure after shutoff will cause this issue.

I too bought from him. No issues.

You can hook up 12 volts directly to the 6 volt starter to turn the engine over. Many 6 volt starters are run in 12 volt conversions for years with no issues.

Use 100% vinegar and run the engine on the road with it. Drain, flush and refill as many times as needed until you’re clear. Finally flush with baking soda as a neutralizer. See link. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=206756

Some of the later ford solenoids did actuate with a positive feed instead of grounding. Don’t recall the year but I’ve seen some aftermarket ones like this.

Here’s an option. Engine steady rods.

Holy crap what a pile of rare stuff. I’m very close to that area.

No sorry, I don’t know what cam is in this 8ba. I would guess its pretty close to stock by the sound of it at idle. I will say that trying this setup on your engine may be successful. There’s absolutely no money invested and very little labor.

I’m not adding this info to disprove any flathead loadamatic knowledge. I do believe one Venturi line to one carburetor is generally the correct information. I’ve run this setup now for 20 yrs. I split the Venturi vac lines and run them to the loadamatic. I then removed one spring on the...

Install a two pound brake residual valve on the end of your overflow tube. The radiator will easily handle two pounds of pressure. The valve allow you to pressurize the tank and more importantly keep the coolant in your radiator when running at high rpm. They work perfectly.

Moving the roof forward will in turn move the top hinge forward lifting the back side of the door.

I agree, you should see wear marks at those two screws.
