Too bad it's not a 54, I got all the help I needed from a fellow HAMBer. 52-53 are a little different with the flathead and front suspension.
I wish I had the talent to do that to my 54 Merc
I'm just glad you got rid of the clown nose ball on the hood
SOLD One hour of run time on a completely rebuilt 368 Lincoln/Mercury engine. Hardened seats on fresh heads, complete new bearings, pushrods, and...
Drop me a line at [email protected] with any questions or needs. I have a block, 2 cranks, pistons, rods, heads, exhausts, etc. All for the...
I'm sticking' with Merc in a Merc. 56' 368 with a bunch of Webers going in soon[ATTACH]
I'll stick with what I got
Just found this on the HAMB. I'm putting a 56/57 368 Mercury in my 54 Merc. Was wondering if you knew the motor mount difference between an FE...
A very few of these came from the factory (1952) with stainless frame. If you find a pair, they are like finding unobtanium.
I see you didn't get any response. Did you ever find the answer to your question? I'm curious also.
SOLD
How come we don't see Merc engines in a Merc? This is going in mine. 56 368ci with 8 webers.
I'm not a pro at this, I had no idea there were multiple stampings on the block. In your opinion, how much of a discount would you say not having...
OK, I'm drooling over this 68 RS/SS 396. The guy sez it's not the original motor so I take a picture of the stamped numbers in front on the block....
I like Egge for my 368 build. They are pros. Sometimes Hagen's stuff can be old. That's something you don't want in gaskets or seals. If you don't...
I've been watching you guys discuss all this really nice info on Olds engines for a long time. My Hilborn FI unit is marked 303-0-8 and have been...
I have a buddy that might have what you're looking for. I'll call and get back to you if you're still looking?
If you're close enough to a bone yard: 76-77 Comet/76/77 Maverick/76-80 Monarch/76-80 Granada all fit. There are others. Some might need a slight...
Make sure you install a fuel pressure regulator in front of those Strombergs. Too much pressure will cause leaking gaskets.
Fits 303 Olds engines. Negotiable.
When I view the work done on other's cars, I always look around the shop. How clean and organized your shop is reflects on your quality...
I've got a Hilborn FI unit that fits that engine. Check it out on EBAY if you're interested.
good luck with that. I like the rear view mirror on the fender, haven't seen one of those before. LOL
I'm with you on the pipes and spots, too much jewelry. All you have to do is forget to move the spotlights one time before opening the hood and...
I think a lot of us have had a similar issue. Paint the inside metal flat black, add your felts and window. The finished product will look fine....
I'm getting close on mine
Don't buy MPC poppers. Quality control is not in their vocabulary. MPC stands for My Push Cart. That alone should make you wonder.
Complete rebuilt unit with many accessories[ATTACH] Contact [email protected]
I'm in. lots of work left but I have a great start. I'm looking for a pic of spring clips made to attach headlight trim rings on a frenched 54....
I was always under the impression it was 3" in the front and 4.5 in the back.
