Sold! Sold! Sold!

What you are pointing to is babbit. On the bottom of the crank is RTV. All the dippers are facing the same way which is scooping towards the oil pump. I did replace the oil pump with a good one. (Not Cracked) Also I shorted between cylinders and no change. The engine drew down but the...

I can't reach out to the engine builder because I don't know who he is. I have found previous owners on Facebook through my wife's account (I don't have one) and messaged them with no response. #3 piston has like half moon cutouts on the body of the piston where the other 3 are flush around...

I bought this 1931 and brought it back to La Vergne, Tennessee from Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It had blown exhaust manifold gaskets when I got it. I replaced with copper gaskets and no further issues there. However there is a knock. The person I got the truck from never mentioned any engine...

Still available.

New price $1800.

Lane Motor Museum in Nashville, Tennessee where I volunteer has this 1933 Dymaxion replica. Yesterday they had the access cover off so I was able to check out the Ford flathead V8. I thought you all would appreciate it. So here it is. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

It was hitting but now it's not. I had to run a shorter belt on the fan. The original top tank did not have any over hang but the new Champion radiator from Jegs does. Also I replaced the thermostats with 180s. I drove the car around town and when I got home I left it running in the driveway...

Inside the heads don't look terrible. I got the old radiator out today and installed the new radiator. Fan hits it. It sits too low. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Looks like right at 2" Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I appreciate the response from everyone. When I got off work tonight I drained the radiator and pulled the thermostats. Radiator appears to be clogged in serval cores and both thermostats were 195s. I believe we may be on to something now. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I just went through troubles with my 94. I sent my carb to Charlie. Got it back last week and the car runs great. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I used the deluxe version from Snyder's and have no complaints. I don't think safety should be judged at how little of it you can get away with. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I drove the car into work this morning to give one more go and test with a IR gun. I got to work which is a 9 mile drive and she was riding on the tic mark to the right of the wide white bar. DS center of head 226° PS center of head 218° DS thermostat housing 216° PS thermostat housing 206° Top...

Tubman I do not know what thermostats is in the car. I work weekends but plan to open it up Monday and find out. I'm a bit nervous to drive the car as is. I'd sure hate to cook that motor. Also my local radiator shops have closed but do have some within reasonable driving distance. But with the...

Drove the car in today. The picture is the temp driving in this morning with outside temps in the 70s. When I got off outside temps were mid 90s. I drove to my parents to pick my son up and I checked the heads with a IR gun. Both were over 200. The thermostat housing on the driver side was over...

Tubman I'll see what it does when I turn it off the next time I'm out. The coolant looks really clean but I did notice there is a 13lb cap on the radiator where I believe it should be running a 7lb. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

I have a 1953 Ford Customline flathead V8 with a Fordomatic trans and from what I can tell is an original car. The temperature gauge lacks on the details. The picture I'm including is of the tempt while driving in a little less than a 100° day. At a red light the temp would quickly rise to H. If...

This is from Charlie: "Coty, Your carb is ready......I installed the proper size jets ,power valve and the accelerator pump check valve, obviously the last guy forgot it. I think you should be in good shape." Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

Update: I got my carb back from Charlie in NY and got it put on today. I did not adjust anything and the car fired right up. No gas smell, no black sooty smoke, just a smooth running flathead. The family and I jumped in and went to a local ma and pa burger place for lunch no issues. Later took...
