Like ol don says, I put my radiator behind the crossmember made room from there back, no cut firewall, back axle ends up where it ends up.

41 Ford tonner, need to take a hammer to it, think someone missed a spot

8BA is car although no big deal, still a flathead but no clean out pan unless someone swapped heads. Carb should be a 94 series and have 8BA or RT...
Yeah git it, 8RT will say so on the heads, bonus if it is a floor shift light duty 78 series trans. If it,s a HD trans still good scrap after...

I have a 53 motor that had a bad bearing, haven't put it back together yet, don't need it
36 had rod mechanicals, 37 & 38 were cable brakes
So what is the story? Was the motor a runner that locked up ( because of bad oil pump) or is it a surprise package? I have lots of pumps if you...
It's not supposed to do that, shaft stays with the pump. Dried goo makes the pump hard to pull out sometimes, but it will come outa there. Shaft...
One bolt in the flex plate too long?
That 1/4" should be OK, If you have a snug fit on the splines try making a tight pin.
I tried a roll pin &broke it, coupler fit too easy on the pinion.I had a piece of about 5/16 rod, not hard, belt sanded until it almost fit, drove...
I don't know if they are reproduced, pick them up at swaps once in a while. I probably have some.
