I have an arc droid and have been happy with it so far... https://arcdroidcnc.com
Many ways to do this. I use my mill and have the DRO figure out where to drill the bolt circle. Back in the day I would lay the pressure plate...
When I was cleaning out my core shed after closing my machine shop I found out the only stuff guys wanted (Chevy) were the 350's and 400's, gave...
Order a set of custom pistons and see what they tell you the wait time is.. you will be surprised!

The pistons pictured are two piece pistons.. steel uppers and usually aluminum skirts.. I believe they are hard chroming the steel ring grooves...
I have a year old IR 60 gallon 5 hp. As mentioned above the compressor is made in India.. dont remember where the motor was made. Anyway the nuts...

Didnt the OP say the panhard bar was the issue in post 14 and its now good?
Pictures would be nice!

I live in Wisconsin so it gets cold... I didnt have a car with AC until I hit 40 so I drove a LOT of winters with just a defroster and it worked...
Did some flywheels like you did although on a special balance stand with almost no friction and they worked fine. Most times we put them in the...
Its really hard to find a decent semi rust free car in the upper Midwest.. Id never buy one sight unseen up here.
The first one pictured on E Bay was mine.. well I sold it for a friend in bad health... got $650 plus the $100 shipping. He also has a nice 58...
