Why another project.. ? Just Happened to find an Engine..! "You know I got these 47 brakes lying around for a while" ..let's do it. (rear brake lines in) You're Correct - The Rears are up side down!...clears the spring. The Fronts are tilted back about 30° ish.... AND we're going 12V --- using an Austin positive gnd. Generator...(looks cool) Original starter should be OK w. 12V...? Sent from my SM-G930T using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Thanks Man.. That's what i figured...lotso steel lower current....better start? Ahoogas speed up a bunch!
Just found out that I have: 1939 - 1942 backing plates in the rear. 1946 - 1948 backing plates in the front. Wheel Cylinders, Springs, Drums = the same. Shoes & Hardware = Different. Learn something new every day!

Smoke fix...I'm thinking of installing a PCV valve using the windshield wiper port on the intake - with a bleed valve on the opposite side of the block so it doesn't suck the end seals dry...just gets the smoke out... if that project doesn't work i might have to work on the Rings..? Sent from my SM-G930T using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
had a tired 302, blew by... replaced the pcv valve and ran the other oil filler cap with a hose port and then ran it into the base of the air cleaner... never saw any more blow by... not a model a but you might find a way to make it work on your banger... ….. $0.02
Till now I've always done mostly 99.9% of all work myself at my garage. (Not forgetting my buddies that helped tow cars, lift out / in engines etc.!!!) Since I got a 7-4 to go to everyday . And other things to do it's hard the get $#!+ done sometimes Bondo helped me out a bunch with the sedan!.. Would have taken a lot longer on my own. & It was fun to have someone that knows what Hellsinki they're doing to but head and work with. Thanks Buddy!
