Here is the T5 Conversion from Kato Kings he is trying to "SELL" as well: JEEP T5 WITH TORQUE TUBE ADAPTER | The H.A.M.B. (jalopyjournal.com)
[ATTACH] Here is a link to some of the QC pics he stole: HALIBRAND 201 QUICKCHANGE REAR END | The H.A.M.B. (jalopyjournal.com) And Another:...
I think it is all a part of how he scams folks. He has a lot of really COOL parts - at below market prices . . . he gets folks hooked in and...
If you're running an early Ford (with a flathead), here is a company that does very high-quality work. I've had a converted generator on my 32...
Now that was good! I bet you guys just cracked up! You've given me a new perspective on my name - won't be forgetting that soon. And at some...
He is still up to the same ole' tricks. He advertised a Riley 2 Port just recently - using the EXACT pictures that came off of the HAMB 7 years...
It could be worse, could be a 32 pickup truck with a missing radiator cap. ;)
My guess . . . a bunch of embellishment to enhance the story . . .
I consider it mainly a load issue. Many of us want to run Halogen headlight bulbs and modern accessories - which usually require a lot more amps...
I hate BS claims of special providence . . . all 3 Window bodies in the USA were made by Murray.
On the hard face overlay grinds - you really should not run those on the street or you run the risk of having the "cam in the pan" - they needed a...
Most guys were running flat tappet grinds . . . you just didn't see roller cams much in SBCs on the street. But we did have a lot of nasty...
I think I remember that the model of the Chandler Grove was a model '92' . . . could be wrong on that. They always seem to be worth more than a...
The bases are actually different for 48's vs 97's - as the choke linkage and air horns are different for 48's. As the 48 was the first of the...
All the 97 related stuff fits, though it appears you have a miss-match of parts. The bases on 48's only have 1 location for the fuel-pump...
My neighbor is building a super-light single-engine plane with a Continental in it. It took 2.5 years to get the engine - as COVID really screwed...
Sounds good Carl - no go have some fun!
I'm not an expert on these early heads, but you'll want to know if the valve lengths will give you enough room for the springs you're running - so...
I have a custom built 700R4 in my 32 Coupe, with a custom torque converter - built to the specs of the car. It is very important that the...
I'm with Eddy - on my AFR SBC 195 heads I have a hydraulic roller that lifts .585 with HS 1.6 rockers and I'm running springs that are 155lbs on...
Awesome, John is a great guy - he has ground multiple custom cams for my various projects. Everything from a SBF, to early Hemi, to Bonneville...
There really aren't any "cheap sources" for the rotating assembly you're trying to build - just pick your poison between Summit, Jegs, CNC...
Cams are not heat treated all the way through - there is only so much you can change a profile and not go through the heat treating. The billet...
Since you talked to Bullet, just follow their recommendations on spring pressure. You'll want more pressure than a hydraulic roller - so if you...
FYI: The first year of the Mustang was 1964 . . . though the rules specifically call them out as not allowed.
Don't bake cerakote in your wife's oven . . . unless you're looking for a new wife! I use a big BBQ and depending on the coating, sometimes I...
I think the challenge with all groups like this is that one man's definition of "Traditional" can be quite a bit different than another's. This...
You might want to give the guys at Bullet Cams a call - explain exactly what your engine has in it, the application, gearing, usage, expectations,...
My first concern would be the billet core and the heat treating. When mechanical roller cams are made they first copper plate the billet core...
I use Cerakote - the version that you bake on. It is impervious to gasoline - which every paint I ever used was not. I've had it on the bases...
