This is an assembled engine I got with a project. I was told it was a stroker with a 400 crankshaft. 350 engine verified. It has an internal...
That is the question. How can a crankshaft have a 350 number with a 400 flange?
I know the cast number is for a 350,but the rear flange looks like a 400 crank flange.? [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]I
I have a crankshaft that has the number cast on it 3932442. That is supposed to be a 350 crank, but the rear flange looks like a 400 design. What...
Good idea. I was thinking about a wood 2x3 but the steel is much better. I found out from a frame mfg that with a boxed frame no springs are...
I picked up a 41 Ford truck project that has a custom boxed frame. My question is mounting the cab. I know the stock used wood and springs. I...
I have a starting point now. Thanks for the info.
I owned a 39 coupe for 24 years. The first 5 years or so I used the stock suspension with added tube shocks and a modified pitman arm.. A friend...
I'm working on a 41 Ford truck. I have the bed, minus tailgate, but I don't have the structure underneath. Can some one give me the dimension from...
Because some states are getting "fussy" about frames not having the original serial numbers matching the title is one possible reason. I have a...
Is it just me or has there been a lot of cars for sale on the HAMB lately with no titles? I know in my part of IL the state is getting real tough...
I'm no expert, but they are basically the same engine, except for the larger CI. If it is an early 60's 261 it would have a spin on oil filter...
You don't have to have the shocks in a verticle position. You can have them sitting at an angle. Some support is lost, but unless you go too...
I don't know how bad of shape your stock grill is, but I bought a rough 40 grill at Indy a few years ago because my 40 had some bars missing down...
The oil canister mounted on the intake was an option. It only has a small line running to it so the help in filtering oil is minimal. Most engines...
I too was down there a few years ago in the northern part of Argentina. There were a lot of Falcons from the early to mid 60's. The latter ones...
I made some fender braces out of tubing like these for my 39 Pontiac coupe in the early 90's and they are still holding up. No flexing at all.
I have been on this site almost everyday for the last several months. I have sold a few items and would have liked to buy many, if they weren't so...
Just a note about distributors, heads and intakes. HEI will not fit behind a tripower without some grinding. In 1973 the "dimple" on the back side...
The trouble with lacquer primer is it has a talc powder type content that will obsorb moisture and eventually rust will bleed through. In other...
I know that 51 Pontiac skirts are different than Chev's. I wouldn't be suprised if Olds and Pontiac are the same. truckeroy
I know the 261 is a better engine because of the oil filter being built in, but they are hard to find and I have 2 235's. I thought the 292's were...
Just got done reading all the threads on 250 vs 335 in a 54 chev. I have a 40 chev pu that I plan on putting a 235 in place of the 216. I already...
Not a big deal because I like to look at all the ads, but if the cars and parts were in separate listings it would save some time looking for...
