Pacu I used that ClutchMasters pressure plate to solve my clearance issues in the adapter mini-bell housing for my BW T-10. Used a Mustang disc...
Summit has a 16 gallon plastic tank I used on my F-1. Just moved the crossmember a little and it bolted right in.
I'll take a quick picture of my 52 F1 tomorrow and post. Used reversed eye monoleafs in the front and reversed eye mainleaves with two leaves...
This place is f-ng crazy...I can't stop laughing!:)
I took my original generator bracket and modified it to fit a one-wire GM alternator. Just remove the band and replace it with a longer one to...
Only when the engine is running! :)
Looks just like the one I installed in my '52 F-1 with an adapter from Flathead Jack. Works like new. Love the 4 gears behind the flattie! :)
What are you waiting on? If the price is right.....BUY IT!!!!!!
I had to mill down about 3/16's on my adapters to get enough insertion depth into the disc. Just a thought. :)
If the pressure plate is releasing, then you have a bind between the disc and the flywheel. Sounds like the disc is not aligned with the input...
Speedway sells dropped tie-rod ends for about $65 or so. I bought them for my 52 F-1 to help clear the pan. Works great! About a 2" drop.
Flathead Jack has it for $225. Speedway has it for $275. Take your pick.
I just received a two-piece adapter from Flathead Jack. That plate was one part that adapts my T-10 (Ford) to my flathead. There is a...
It's easier with two people....
Now that I have your attention.....I am installing a BW T-10 in my 1952 F-1 flathead V8. I have the Offy adapter plates and a new ClutchMasters...
Are you kidding?! Shouldn't be more than a #10 envelope and a postage stamp!
Man, I'm an old flathead guy ('52 F-1) and I am so impressed by the work you've done on the dragster. Keep it goin'!
I think Joe gets his from Tom Roberts Designs.
Maybe the fuel pump flange is slightly higher than the stock manifold giving you too much clearance for the fuel pump rod. Jus' thinkin'.
X2 on the 390 Holley. It's what I now run on my '51 p/u. Great combination!
I fill my flathead radiator to the top of the core (about 1/2" over) and leave room for expansion in the top of the radiator. Use a 7# cap....
I installed the Powermaster last month when I pulled the engine to change the trans. Seems to work okay, but it's only been started a dozen times...
As far as cut and weld, I thought about that too, but when I proposed it on another forum, I had numerous members say "Don't do it that way" for...
I just installed those on my 52 F1 last week. Had to shorten the tie rod by about 8", drill and tap the end to install them. Description doesn't...
x2 on the Valvoline VR1 racing oil in my flathead. 20-50 wt off the shelf at Autozone. Or 10w30 if you can find it.
I just put a t-10 into my F1 and have a HD 3 speed floorshift I would sell if the offer is right. Don't know what they're worth though. Anybody...
Fill the radiator until fluid just covers the inside fins....no higher. This will give you 2+ inches of expansion area. I also installed an...
Just use Valvoline VR-1 Racing oil...20-50 or 10-30. It's got all the zinc you need.
