OK, now I think I get it. And I have to admit I agree with you in regards to "fake" components. (What was I thinking!) When I got my posting...
But apparently a 700r4 trans qualifies as "vintage "! What a bunch of crap!
I don't know what happened but I posted a question " Using a fake old carb for modern throttle body". I got 16 replies and all of a sudden the...
Anyone know where I can get some louvers punched in NW indiana area? I know I can go to Hopperstad, but I only need 16 in a real small area and...
I'm going to run a bypass pressure valve and bridge pipe right out of the pump. Hidden that way.
The most trouble I've had is with 304 and 440. I'm a tool and die maker and I work with 303, 416, 316L, as well as A2, cpm10v, etc. on a daily...
Nice Bridgeport! The metalflake handwheel and striping are a nice touch! Is that just a readout box or an old point to point Anilam?
Thanks! I know most of what I did could be replicated with pipe from the local Home Depot or whatever, but almost all we work with is stainless...
I took the filter to work, cut out the old shaft, made a new one and a side inlet bung. I found a full flow filter that is a cartridge style. It's...
Out of curiosity, how does a bypass filter work? I'm going to just use the housing and make it a full flow. I was going to just machine my own...
I've got a NOS Purolator NE1517 remote oil filter and cartridge from the 40's that I got off Ebay. [IMG] I'm thinking of modifying the in and...
I've got a complete drum to drum axle. I'd really like to keep drums on it, don't really like the look of discs on a solid axle. So I guess...
Anybody?
I've got a early ford I-beam axle, 33-36 I think. Will any late model hubs fit without a lot of mods? Thanks, Dan
Thanks, I thought it was probably from the early 50's. Was this the same cap that was on the chopped and channeled Olds from Valley Customs? I...
I found this in the scrap yard today. It doesn't have any markings on it that I can see. Does anyone know what it came off of? I need to find...
I just use a regular sanding disc flipped over so you're rubbing on the fiber side, works pretty well, and a whole lot cheaper since I get used...
I was thinking of one from harbor freight, but I didn't know if it would last as long as the "microwave" type. Honestly, I'd probably kill myself...
Has anyone on here ever make a home made spotwelder? I've seen some info on the web about using a microwave transformer, but will it weld metal...
Nah, usually just onions, but some people like relish and mustard.:D Dan
This was just listed on a post on the samba http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf59lk-Kx-s Kind of morbid, the drivers head is the first thing you...

That does make sense, makes volume, not a lot of pressure. Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll get back to making the end plates for the blower,...
We shipped our daughters Eclipse from Indiana to California in 2008 and it cost us a little under $500. We used D.A.S. (Dependable Auto Shippers)....
I heard a long time ago that the "original" use for a roots blower was to pump fresh air into mine shafts. Then they got stuck on either a gas or...
Could a Gmc 4-53 blower be fitted to my 60 gal. compressor instead of the conventional 2-stage pump? The compressor works fine but it's loud and...
The finest use of canted quads, IMO, BEHOLD... THE MOUNTAIN PEARL!! Dan [IMG]
Personal favorite, not sure of the "factory" name, but it came on 1976 Chevy Caprices. This WAS mine, but when I had it, it was just a plain...
