Can anyone tell me why Ford sleeved motors in the factory in 1941? When rebuilding a factory sleeved motor, can you just pull the sleeves and hone that bore and be OK?

Great stuff Chris, thanks.

OK, I need some helps with Brakes on my 36 5-W. I am converting my wide-5's to 16" steelies. I am all set with the Front. I have a pair of 40 rear drums that the hubs are good, but the drums are shot. I have a swedge cutter, so I am going to separate the hubs from the drums. So here is the...

I am looking for some 1940 to 1948, rear brake drums. I have the fronts but need rears to run 16" steelies on my 36. I understand 35's will work as well.

Thanks for the responses. I did not win the auction! So I will keep looking. Now I know!

So, will a 35 rear drum work on 39 backing plate with juice brakes and 16" steel wheels?

So to clarify. I can use a 12 volt coil on a 6 volt system if it is marked "requires external resistor"? Would that be wired like a standard coil, or backwards?

So, If I have a 12 volt coil, that is marked, use with external resistor, I can run it on a 6 volt system, wired for correct polarrity?

Please help verify an old wives tale told to me by a friend. I was told that you can use a 12 volt coil on a 6 volt system (flathead), if you wire it backwards. Is this true?

Awesome! That worked. Yo da man! Thanks a bunch.

So who out there can tell me the easy way to get the door glass out of my 36? I need to keep the original glass for a template.

You would be willing to sell one or trade for what I have?

The right one looks just like mine. Who is B-O-B?

The shaft diameter of the pulleys is approximately 5/8 ". The diameter of the shaft on the generator is something bigger.

Ok, I have pictures, but I don't know how to post them.It is a keyway shaft on the the generator. The shaft is a bigger diameter than any of the pulleys. The front of a gererator has a big nose like a late model, 2 brush. If anyone can tell me how to post pistures, i will.

I bought a NOS 3 brush generator for my 36 that was missing the pulley. I have purchased 4 pulleys over the past 6 months, and none of them will fit. I need a pulley with the fan mount. The Generator has an AA4 marking on it. What year is this for, and where can I find a pulley that will fit it?

I just puchased some new power valves for my Holley 94 Carbs. They whistle like a screaming banchi. I used the seats that came with the valves. What did I do wrong. The Car runs great. It just sounds like I have a built in wolf whistle!
