I can’t assembly it yet as I need to get my flywheel machined to accept a 9.5” clutch that I just picked up. Flywheel was machined for an 11” clutch originally. Before taking the flywheel out, I would like to get the orientation of the shaft sorted out so I can continue on with mocking up the...

Thanks for the pics. That’s a long lever arm. Looks like the one that came off of my second C59A that had an 11” clutch. What I’m interested is the orientation of the mating shaft flange that goes through my hog’s head adapter with the forks when pressure plate is not depressed.

Thanks for all the links. I quickly went through them all and didn’t see anything that was helpful. Did my own internet search, and came across this vid, but it also did not show the type of cross-shaft flange I’m looking for. It and brought me to one of my threads on the HAMB. Lol...

Sure.

I’m in the process of mocking up my pedal assembly (1940) to my C59A. I have the engine attached to the trans and I need to know what the correct orientation for the flange on the shaft for the clutch forks. I don’t have the clutch/pressure plate/throw-out bearing installed. I’ve modded the...

I’m not planning on using it, but was curious. I actually just picked up another Mustang T5 trans on Sat. lol!

Came across this yesterday on FB. I had never heard of one before. Are they any good? https://www.facebook.com/share/1FTFFTAuhU/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Wishing you a smooth transition.

I was wondering about the impact when I heard about the vulnerability yesterday. I’m looking forward to change as I never figured out how to post full-size pics here. Lol!

Nice. Is there one for the passenger car banjo axles? I would like to get one of those.

Here’s the same one (although not exactly the same as mine is Ford Motor Company of Canada) on eBay for only $13. https://www.ebay.com/itm/227546112466

Found this great Ford Motor Company engine repair manual yesterday. Paid CAN$30. Wish I had it when I was rebuilding my 59A. They had a similar manual for rear axles but it was for trucks.

I think that’s brilliant idea. If I were closer, I would definitely attend.

Never seen such huge cracks. That’s insane. Did a great job of cleaning the block though.

Hope he chime in then. I’m more interested in the claim if I understand him correctly that there is a difference between the left and right side heads on a 59A type engine.

That looks really clean! I like the idea of using the vintage wire loom technique. Also, the brown coloured plug wires are nice vs black.

When I click on the Techno link, I get this. Is it still a valid link?

There was a massive spreadsheet somewhere on the interweebs that had all kinds of CRs for various bores and head combinations. Don’t recall if it mentioned anything about the blocks with the reliefs, but IIRC, with my combo (0.060” over and C7RA-A cast iron heads) it was around 7.4:1. So, with...

I have two C59A engines. Both were industrial engines, and both came with the heavy duty truck 4-speed. Both had the truck oil pan with the large cleanout. However, only one had the factory relief. I find that very odd. The one with the factory relief is in my speedster. I will rebuild the...

Thanks for sharing! Some real interesting stuff!
