FWIW, I contacted the company and they indicated that those headers won't work with the stock wishbone suspension. Tom

Hello, I am searching for an oval generator cut out. Thanks, Tom

Will you post an image or two of your '33? Thanx, Tom

Nice truck! It would have been hard for me to sell that truck. Tom

Agreed, makes me sad also. Tom

Hello, I am in search of a pair of Bob Drake '34 Ford vulcanized running boards. Thanks, Tom

Old Redneck, if you will private message your telephone number to me, I will respond with images of my work. I am having trouble posting images on this site. Tom

Nice trucks! Does the '37 have a chrome grille? Tom

Tim Brown is correct that the grease seal runs on the spacer, but the PRIMARY reason for the spacer is to move the hub outboard on the spindle so that the edge of the brake drum does not make contact with the backing plates. Like I said before, I'm doing this from memory so please let us know...

I think the bearing butts up to that spacer so that the brake drum does not contact the backing plates. It's been several years that I was working with that set-up. The inner race of the bearing is going to prevent that spacer from turning. Hope this helps, Tom

acchaplin, I'm glad you found a solution to your problem, can you provide an image ? Bored & Stroked, I understand about porting the adapter itself to provide a fuel supply and return. But I can't visualize how to fit the sending unit float ( 1 1/4" dia.) plus a fuel pick-up tube ( 5/16" dia.)...

Idea: dimensions permitting! Why not make the fuel pickup part of the drop-in assembly? This is how many of the aftermarket pickup assembly's work. Also, while you're at it - put in a "return line" - just in case you decide to run a different fuel pressure regulator (non dead-head type). You...

This is what I use with my crab distributors, easy peasy, no fumbling trying to hold more than the straight edge. Tom

Thank Petehoovie for enlargening the images. Tom

Bored & Stroked, I made the adapter offset to accommodate a five hole pattern at a specific diameter and a six hole pattern at a different diameter (see image)., I just didn't make that clear in my first post. The other thing that I didn't address is the fuel pick-up, I intend to machine a steel...

Jmessi, will do. Tom

Hello, I'm right around the corner in Imperial. I'd like to at least see what you have. Tom

A couple of additional images. Tom

I had the same situation with my "32, I purchased a linear sending unit (available in just about any length) and machined an offset adapter. The offset adapter allows the use of one common hole(circled in the images), the common hole in the adapter will allow you to mount the new sending unit...
