It has one on it now, so I imagine it does require it. Engine/trans is still in the car, though the intake and valve covers are off. It had an...
Looking at an 1850. I want to find a knowledgable sales person, that knows what I need. Or at least ask someone that has installed one and knows...
I probably won't get a Carter at all, if this one isn't going to work. Probably get a Holley instead.
Or will an edelbrock adapter work on it? Someone was saying the #1483 bracket works?
I have a friend who is hot for me to get this Carter 9605s (2953) AFB from him, for a Ford project I am working on. The engine is a 302, C4 trans...
I put an aluminum one in my 86 Ramcharger with a 5.9 liter. Never overheated a single time, and didn't spring any leaks either. It was still...
I will probably never use the tap again, unless I am cleaning threads out on another vehicle, but oh well. I have it if I need it now.
Well, rather than tap/cut, tap/cut, tap/cut... I just measured and cut off the right hand thread side. Yep, it had to be drilled out before the...
Tie rods are here!! Never been so excited to see two hunks of metal, hehe.
Excellent news! Do you have a picture of your truck? Yeah I was aware of the opposite threads, but thanks for the warning. I've rebuilt a LOT of...
Fender propped up about right. LOVE the billowy balloon tire look, with the rounded body style. It will have 2.5-3 inch whitewalls by the time...
Mine has the small window, last year I am told, and a column shift so by deduction a 50 model. I kept the stock window height in the rear, and...
Chuck Porter truck. This thing has A LOT more work in it than many people realize. The seat cushions were pretty much sunken into the cab floor....
Sooo, if I am only doing one side, I do have to bore out the inside of the tube larger, before tapping? That kind of means you have to cut it...
I will do just that.... thanks.... I didn't realize no one had ever done this before.... 50.5 inches center center, not a heated and dropped....
I realize I may need to tap, cut, tap, cut, to get down to the right length, and not just cut it off and rethread it.
I was looking around for dropped tie rods, since I am installing/mocking up a 3 inch drop axle. I ended up ordering some of the actual dropped rod...
I know it's a zombie thread, but I just had to say... Nice AMX!!! I drooled on the old magazine ads of those cars when I was a kid, ten years...
I guess that would mean these? They look COMPLETELY different than anything else on the market. And that is a good thing! The price is expected,...
I have a 1950 F-1 with the stock 8BA, and I want to get all the header fitting issues out of the way before I start REALLY tearing it down. Aka:...
Excellent info, both of you. The sad part is that it looks like someone had replaced all the soft lines, but back far enough that they need...
I just want to rebuild the drum brakes it has, with all new lines and a dual res. master cylinder. All I seem to find are complete bolt in pedal...
And best case scenario, how deep should the sleeve extend into the pillar top and bottom?
I have some round tubing that perfectly touches all the crimped inward pieces of the A pillar. I have heard of the "rosette" welding technique and...
Sorry haven't been here in a while, but just wanted to check in with my latest pics. I have decided to go primered kustom, with full fenders and...
I joined this facebook group a week or two ago, and just now decided to do a search on him when the person who runs it (Nathan Cooper) announced...
Sorry, I don't post a whole lot here, BUT... Let me get this straight, to see if I am seeing this correctly? On the chop... Instead of cutting...
Someone suggested Skip to me earlier today. It's really only a $50 difference, and you get so much more for your money, from what I am reading. I...
For now I want to see if it will run. I am thinking mild "unfinished" custom. Z'd frame, navy blue satin paint. Red powdered frame, and all the...
Nobody huh? Alright...
