Mike, that is some good looking iron, and sounds like a great project. Good luck and I will be watching. TV
I'm 71 and I still build hot rods, my son and I build together,we have a Bonneville race car we built and I'm working on a 29 blown flathead...
Thats a good looking truck, put some time into it and get her done. You'll really enjoy it when you do.--TV
I think it is GREAT with the fenders and it sits good also.--TV
Keven & I will be there Saturday all day. Please say hi.--TV
If it were me I would check the mating surface at the gasket, you may have a very small leak.
Use a 32, but put needle brgs. in place of the bushings, that will make it like power steering.--TV
Oh yes, set up right they will perform like fuel injection.--TV
They are not hard to set up, first get the chokes right. Then get your jets and air correction jets correct. They will work almost as good as fuel...
Kevin, good on ya, nice digs.--TV
A boned, yes you are right, we use bushings in the cam bores of our race motors. Some guys have put bearings but I think thats going a little far....
Do you have springs in the rear? Check for a broken spring.--TV OK thats good.
Check the banger thread, I helped you out.--TV
A-boned, this can be done in the car if needed. The rod bearings use a 25/32 socket, just mark the caps and put them back where they came from....
If your talking about the axel nut, you better use a six foot snipe.
