I feel sorry for that guy, he's probably all alone in his garage with the black and white checkered tile,and the 2003 black and silver heritage...
One common issue that throws a guy off on these motors, the harmonic balancers have a bad habit of slipping over the years. I attribute it to old...
Try replacing return springs on shoes, when these get weak any pressure to the cylinders just slams the shoes against the drum.
Nice work Curt B, your freind is wasting talent golfing. Good thing it's short season in Edmonton.
You are exactly right, and answered your own question.Just divide the #4 and #5 siamesed exhaust outlet.No need to run the plate into the...
Thats the piece,good find RawDeal.I use to pay 15 bucks for them in the 80s'.
Nice pickup, those are 3 and 3 fentons from the description,sound is good,but too balanced for me.
You're right,it was late.:o Sound is still the same 2 and 4 on left pipe.
I have done this many times, just did a 261 last week. Wish I had pics. I like to plasma a cut down the manifold between cyl 4 and 5 and cut a...
Could it be the top bolt never really stays tight enough to hold both brackets, causing lower bolt to shear under stress and vibration?
The rear or firewall nearest port is for the rear brakes.The actuator rod pushes this inner piston first, thus slightly applying rear brakes...
Maybe try bolting bracket to head, but bolting upper bracket with a spacer to third lower hole in head. I think the earlier mentioned upper...
Very nice, did a set like that myself.

I might be wrong, but I think the super 97s are two barrels? I know of a guy that ran dual r1 monojets and they worked well.
Like ems said try lowering the float level, maybe by a 1/16 at a time. How does the carb perform? Besides the leaking issue.
That is correct, not all B,BC,BV rochester carbs used a pump well intake passage. As long as the float level allows fuel to come in over plunger...
That check ball is aluminum, maybe soak it with some coca cola overnight. Also if your accelerator pump is the type with a check ball in the lower...
If the front can't drop, can the tailshaft come up?
The brown pieces look like broken cam gear teeth.
Years ago I used a small button style drop resistor on a 53 gmc 12 volt conversion. Oh yeah, you must put the resistor in the 12 volt lead...
Hi Bob, saw you go through Columbia Falls today at 3 :30. Hard to miss that good looking 52 with the h.a.m.b. front plate. Have a good trip.
Good trade! Think pinner whites, supremes, radirs, milners with spiders, glasspaks with bellflowers, glowing white tuck and roll every...
I would say for flow and breathability go with the camel humps. IMHO dual holleys would look and perform better, even WCFBs or old as cast AFBs....
Check out this website www.hotrodcarbs.com , you would have the coolest 283 in a 61 apache. Good reason to get rid of that non-hamby HEI.
I believe early econolines' had a four on the tree option also.
It seems to me that a 750 double pumper is too much carb for your build and 4000' elevation. What trans are you running and what rear axle ratio?...
Ditch the headers and go back to the 65 chevy ramhorns with the cast alternator mount. The ramhorns are good to 350HP should work with your 300HP...
How cool are you? Nice find, dad was a Hudson man. Mitt Romneys' father George Romney, Ed Barit and, George Mason formed American Motors from Nash...
Not Montana, guaranteed 8 months of salt and sand covered roadways. No sales tax, but high property and state income tax. Poorly edcuated car...
