This mag drive is pretty bare unfortunately. I've noticed it's got a similar 3 bolt mount, as does a side drive governor. Before I purchase one,...
It's always odd claiming a car is the fastest, when there are cars faster than it.
I'd be using mine with a mostly stock banger. I'm thinking of adding some sort of bolt-in crossmember, and possibly wood inbetween the rails for a...
How was welding the frame? I’ve been told that it’s better to bolt the T frame than it is to weld it, somehow it affects the flexing?
That's fantastic! Do you have any more frame photos?
I'm in the process of picking up a '26 or '27 T frame, and plan on building a little single seater with a stock-ish banger. Ideally using front...
I'm at the point where I am doing as much research as I can to potentially build one of these in the future. Ideally I would like to stay with a...
All I know is it must have sold quick, the sale post was taken down on facebook fast.
I gave him a shout a few months back to pick his brain about his wood patterns, he mentioned that he was done. Bummer! I would've loved to see...
Wicked cool, what's the info on that front timing cover?
Checking in, not much progress on my banger as of yet. Working on making some new parts though!
[IMG] I believe I have a modified Frontenac water pump. Does anyone have literature or parts for one of these? I know Dan has reproduced...
If you ever wanna ditch that muffler, I'd love to buy it back from you!
What makes it for a T block?
From what I heard, that engine has some cam in it!! Did it come with the Roto-Faze distributor?
I’ve got a frame that is 1:1 with what was used under his SOHC car. This is what I’d run the fronty pump on [ATTACH]
Wicked cool! What’s the story behind that photo? Yes please!!
How can you tell it’s for a T? Dan does fantastic work, we have some of his gears in a warmed up A block and love em!
I’ll bring a couple of dog treats in exchange for picking your brain!
Joe that would be seriously awesome, thank you!!
Alright now here's something to throw everyone off.. '39-40 Lincoln "Deep" Front backing plates to be run on '32-34 spindles. '42-48 Ford Rear...
What I’ve always done is use a Model B front timing cover. Once you’ve got the cover, it’s as easy as timing with the pin like normal.
Holy cow, what's the skinny on that?! Do you have any photos to spare of it all setup? I'll go ahead and search for Dans email!
Frontenac Water pumps: Who has one? Who knows about them? I've got an empty housing of one, and would love to rebuild it. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
Unfortunately the side drive deal was a bust, but I left with some other goodies! Now time to find some parts to get this water pump pumping!...
Checking in! Started disassembling the water pump @noboD sent me. I'll be grabbing this Parker side drive setup this weekend at GNRS! [ATTACH]...
Someone mentioned that you can't convert a governor drive as it isn't the same size of gear as the crank gear. Can anyone confirm whether...
Looking good!!!
Side driven water pumps… what do you guys know about them? From what I know so far, Frontenac and Ambler made them [ATTACH]
Head down memory lane with to 2007 when Skratch from Skratch's Garage first built the Head Skratcher on Hot Rod TV. This thing is seriously a...
