    PCV VALVE SYSTEM for 8BA with Early Intake Manifold

    Decling helped me out on this modification. Thought I'd add a twist as I appreciated his knowledge and Coop's. Running an electric fuel pump on my Flathead Model A. I'm a cheap SOB and couldn't see spending $150 on a shorty Speedway pump stand. The diameter of the Henry stand at the X...

    Flathead Guru's...Question on installing the crankshaft sleeve

    I kinda agree, Mike Herman built 100's if not thousands of flatheads and putting on a sleeve backwards would be a rookie mistake which is possible but not likely.

    Flathead Guru's...Question on installing the crankshaft sleeve

    For the Guru's........which direction do you install this sleeve? I should have paid attention when I removed it. Notice the offset in the spiral. Installing it either direction will pull oil back into the engine. Try'd that. Was going with a one piece seal and didn't like the sloppiness of the...

    Silly question: Always replace bearing races when new bearings are installed or no?

    Yea, I'd inspect and re-use if there isn't any noticeable wear or corrosion. The price of new bearings add up pretty quick.

    Plugging the fuel pump pushrod without a bushing?

    Ron...If I caught my machinist in time I would have had him clock the rear cam bearing. Unfortunetly the rear cam bearing is in as intended. I wondered if the oil coming thru the squirt hole of the bushing was to oil the rear bearing. By clocking the bearing tells me this isn't so. Thanks. -Ron
