I’m getting ready soon to weld in my flat crossmember( no spring pad, maybe some tilt to prevent spring bind, but how much). My car is set at ride...
Borntoloze, I put the tube underneath the welds... not to the side. Although it Might look like that in the photo.
Oh... I did a piece of tubing.
Here’s what I got. Still so room to place things ie coilovers. Maybe I don’t need to cut the tank, but the filler neck is long, that might need...
[ATTACH]There still some moving around I can do.....
So I added a tubing on both my welds. How do we feel about the gas tank position, I think there’s room for coilovers? Gonna mock tomorrow
Thanks, my welds are almost a foot away. The heims went in fine. After everything went in, my bars point 7deg down and I have the pinion at...
I’ll do that Marty strode...
I did think of cutting where you said. But like lake_harley said the hiem joints won’t line up to the holes on the bracket. As it is, there is a...
I just completed the task...[ATTACH]
It’s a street car, 31 ford roadster, stock 354 hemi, T5. Ford 8 3/4 3.0 gear, nonposi
I need to shorten my ladder bars 2”. They will be 42” after I’m done. I’m planning on doing the cut about 6” from the rear, heim joint then weld...
I may consider this, what year metro?
I have a gas tank for my 31 ford roadster but need it cut down to fit inside the trunk behind the rear end. My car is Z’d. If I have to ask I...
Thanks carbking.
I feel you. 500 cfm could work for my hemi but the original wcfb is less than that for sure. My 331 hemi has two wcfb and it doesn’t run rich, if...
^^^correct me if my thought process is wrong...
Thank you makes sense...so really .97 and 1.03 is nothing in comparison of the two ventris. Maybe 10cfms? I don’t think .06 “ is gonna make a...
Good point, then ventri??
You saying 31/32 is a measurement of bore size? I dint know that. I thought 31/32 was like a venturi size or jet. Or .97” in decimal. Being that...
Thanks for the response. Just to clarify 1 carb is possible 48 3 are big logo 97 2 are small logo 97 Aren’t all 97 same internal?
Right, I was talking big logo 97 vs small logo 97, them being the same thing and running them in one set up.
I’ve read on the Ham that there’s not much difference between big 97 and small 97, just logo size. so it shouldn’t be a problem to run em as a set...
When I take them apart, I’ll see what I got inside, jet, ventris etc.right now the bore size at the base plate are all the same. There is no play...
This crossed my mind also...but a lot of people here run straight on the street. I was advised on here to run straight. But wouldn’t you want...
I saw that also...from the picture I saw when I bought them, they were all connected together with linkage. The person I bought them from knew far...
Alchemy, the no 97 marking also has three bosses. I can’t find a 48 marking.... 1) does it matter that some have 48 tops? 2) if they didn’t close...
The only stamp, not raised, marking I find is this...[ATTACH]
73RR thank you, I’m very fortunate to have her, it’s a blessing to have a wife that supports, and vise versa.
The linkage...[ATTACH]
