On page four you can see the early driver controlled mufflers!
Mike, I read through my KCTA book today . It was printed in 1956. Unfortunately, it had no reference to the club the Mill Men.
Larry, I have a couple here with me but you can almost buy them cheaper from Amazon or Mancini Racing if you want reasonable shipping. Media Mail...
34 Larry, it is a bit late but if you want to learn how they work and why, this book will show and teach you a lot. [ATTACH]
Joe Hand is one son, 37 Chevy truck, and Tom Hand is the other, VOETOM. :) Sincere thanks for the nice comments about Dad.

"A" does look like part of a broaching tool assembly...
They had to paint it twice after the first inspection revealed a bunch of little things wrong. Jim and the guys wanted to be sure it was correct...
If it is really best at 3200 to 6800 rpm, I'd be shocked if it had even 9.5 inches of mercury vacuum at 900 to 1000 rpm. That is a fairly...
I actually found that too. CORRECTION: In late 1978, I was making a bit more than $9 an hour so about $21,000 annually. I was still at home...

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] I found this receipt from my 69 Barracuda paint work in late 1978. Seems cheap but I had just paid $1200 for the car and now I...
It should be sodium bicarbonate so I would think you could use a dilute citric acid solution to "neutralize" it and then rinse with water and use...
Hein-Werner I have their floor jack and their stands are also made here. :)
NAPA Platinum which is an even better WIX created for synthetic oil/high mileage oil changers.
Eric, what Poncho said is accurate. Paul's are different and hopefully he is still around and doing well. I know from time to time he did have...
Tony, I'd go for lockup if you do not hot rod it. This book will provide some data about both types and the gear ratio changes in the 904 and 998...
Good day all, trying to finish a 65 C4 for a pal. However, someone used a late (1970) pump and literally glued it in with rtv silicone. Does it...
SDS, for sure allow it all to float freely on hangers. Do not mount it stiff or it may transfer a lot of the noise and vibration into the cab. We...
This is a really well done movie and I learned a lot about an engine I had seen for years but never paid enough attention to. Thanks for creating...

A ok Mike. We put 18" by 4.5 by 9.5" Goelich Xlerators under my father in laws 32. Sounds sweet and is very quiet inside but rumbles outside. I...
Mike, I have some of the things you need to fabricate your own mufflers. If you are interested and can weld or have a buddy that can weld, let me...
Got pulled over for running these tags. I had the original black and yellow one chromed.
