That's funny. We usually use a VW one because the HD ones fail so often.
I am using a off topic master in my 46, after converting the rear to an off topic axle and using a disk brake conversion. The master has M10...
OK, but I only looked at what was posted here. I like the idea of a vertical lift, that's one good idea here. Many good idea's are poorly executed.
Is that a Belvedere? I love that body, in any of the three trim levels. I say do whatever YOU like best. Does it have the 230 in it or the V8? If...
Well, I did say it was for lifting engines, but I don't see that in the seller words. Maybe that part was in the ad. I only like the basic design....
My only comment would be was that the smallest winch he could get. 3000Lbs would be a pretty heavy engine, and it's got some multipliers. I'd love...
I used the Eastwood single stage and I found it to be easy to use and was easy to wet sand and buff. The drivers fender and door have it in my...
Decided to use them.
[ATTACH] New, never installed. I've only ever mounted the carbs on the flanges to look at it. Comes complete for what Speedway or Summit charge...
At home I use a Panduit set, that is a probable copy of the T&B ones shown. They even used two colors for the insulated handles. At work, I have a...
For anyone interested in the strange and bizarre, the CV40 design. Just "blocked out" not finished.[ATTACH]
Well, it would be great to at the least document it for posterity. I thought about the carb heights, but I'm not sure other than ram effect there...
[ATTACH] This is what I've come up with. Take it with a cautious huge grain of salt, as I don't have either the A833 or a loose bell housing to...
I appreciate your help.
In an attempt to reduce the costs a bit... [ATTACH]
This is my attempt to copy the AoK intake. The original is of course cast. I can't pay for things like that, so this has machined flanges and I'm...
Here is the exhaust flange.
I've been posting about this on P15-D24, but I'm working on a couple idea's for intake manifolds for my 230 flathead. If I could buy an AoK...
I know it's not a complicated motor, but I want the crank cross drilled and the main bearings machined. I'd rather ask than just pick one. Thanks...
Anyone living in the San Diego area know a machine shop with flathead Dodge experience, or one you would trust? Thanks.
If you mean the Yahoo forums, then yes, that was me. But I've always been in San Diego. I appreciate anyone being able to help.
Does anyone have the bolt pattern measured where the transmission bolts to the bellhousing. I gave away my spare bellhousing, and now I'm looking...
I think I'd do a soda blast just to get it clean, the wipe a thin skim of JB on it and be done. It seems to have a nice amount of metal left. Some...
Resistance in wire is rated per 1000 feet.
The rules I received from the the state when I asked, were all emission controls of the chassis and all emission controls of the motor must be...
You are correct. I wasn't clear that I was talking in the US.
Actually the 25 inch motors were mostly used in Canada. My 46 Dodge 3/4 ton has a 23 inch motor. All the 201, 218 and 230 motors are 23 inch.
I looked up disk brake conversion for 1940 Chevy Truck and got a number of hits. Some have brackets that look a lot like yours. The point is they...
The heads from the late 50's increase the compression ratio. Offy sells the dual intake, I've got one, but I'm not going to hot rod the original...
I used adapters to put my 5 on 5 wheels on my truck after changing the front brakes and rear end which are both 5 on 4.5.
