    boogered up '37 to '41 front wishbone side

    :D Anybody got a boogered up '37 to '41front wishbone? I just need one side to fix a boogered up one I got. I just need the foot or so where the spring perch pin and spring bushing is. Some overzealous type took a torch to the spring perch pin to try and cut off the top and cut into the...

    Fuel pressure regulator

    I have the Holley low pressure regulator and it works fine MOST OF THE TIME. But, every so often I have to re-adjust that thing as it seems to have a mind of its own occasionally. Therefore, I would recommend that you put it somewhere easily accessible.

    Aluminum head anti seize

    I cannot state that this works because I have not had to remove a head, but it is what I've done with my heads, cast iron and aluminum, on two engines. http://www.stefs.com/bandb/products/productpages/washerstep.htm To me it is intuitive, if you keep the bolts or studs centered in their holes...

    Chevy water pump on flathead

    I had this set up on my '36 pickup for a while. It worked OK, but it placed the fan very low on the radiator and I had to use a smaller diameter fan to clear the lower outlets. That engine is an 8BA and I decided to go back to a stock set up with a big fan that is nicely centered on the...

    back up camara

    Has anyone done this sort of thing and tied it to your turn signal switch? When I re-do my '40 Sedan Delivery I thought about putting in such a system because lane changing in that thing is a real adventure. It is like driving a cave. I might just have to leave it on all the time like flatbed...

    Engine miss

    Geez, Jim, seeing as how you followed me around in Austin a couple of months back when I had one plug loose with it missing intermittently, I would have thought you would have recognized a plug/wiring issue right away.:o

    Head lite adjusting

    Wanting to adjust the headlites implies that you plan on driving at night! Are you nuts?! Looks like I need to call Willie to get some supervision on site.

    pressure test 21 stud

    I currently only have one 21 stud head for this prospective engine. I have a lead on another in the swapmeet section. So, 21 stud heads are a little more scarce than 24 types so I don't have any extras to be cutting up. I like your suggestion, Lonnie, and thanks to all for the others.

    pressure test 21 stud

    Kahuna, so good to hear from you. I've been so worried about you! *inside joke***** How am I going to spray soapy water around the valve seats to make sure there are no cracks? But, you gave me an idea. I will see if I can get an old 21 stud head gasket to use as a pattern to get a pressure...

    pressure test 21 stud

    Being lazy here and not digging out my pressure test equipment to see if it fits. So, are there enough common stud holes to get a good seal with a 24 stud pressure test block?

    8rt Fan Blade Options?

    I have a 6 blade on my '36 and I do not notice it being louder. Man, it moves the air. I cannot get my 8ba with 180* thermostats to run over 178*.

    Difference between 8ba and 59ab flywheel

    Not sure, but if the starter is the problem, don't the small, aftermarket starters work with either?

    Ron, Beech 18 has twin tails like B 25's and 24's. I think that is the Songbird. I can see Uncle Sky but not Penny's head.

    Looking for a cariature ~~

    Chap52, that is some neat history. I related the picture with the Grateful Dead song for obvious reasons when I chose it for my helmet visor. I was trying to be a "wild and crazy" jg. Sorry, Bill. This has nothing to do with the intent of your thread but it invoked a lot of old memories.
