What's the forward velocity of an unladen swallow? ...or has that been asked? This post is so old, I've forgotten!
Name a GM p***enger automobile, manufactured in the 1910's for sale in the U.S. market, which used a ladder bar - located rear axle.
Good question... but since Squirrels are afraid of "Tomcats" I'll throw out some probables...! The answer to that equation depends upon a couple of variables... such as atmospheric pressure (You can boil water at a lower temp in a pure vacuum!), speed of movement, size of the bucket, and ambient temperature!
If you were going to convert your SB Chevrolet V8 to a reverse-rotator(to beat centrifugal force on the race track)would you change the location of the starter or the direction/gear and its spin when turning the flywheel to start? (I always wondered how Smokey Yunick supposedly did it with the Hudsons?)
I need to read this entire thread, I'm sure it will be a hoot. I have never seen Squirrel stumped. I don't even post questions on the board anymore, I just PM Squirrel. Question: 2 wrongs don't make a right, but 3 rights makes a ......?
In boats I have seen it done by relocating the starter to to bell-housing, usually on the top (it's facing the other way). I un-reversed the rotation of a boat motor to put in my '30 chevy coupe. My buddy runs this type of bell-housing on a regular-rotation bbc - he reversed the starter! To answer your question accurately, it can be done either way.

In a Supermarket parking lot, driver would hear a pop under the hood, engine wouldn't start, distributor cap would be askew, but not broken. Replace cap, engine started and ran fine until next time around. Cause? I,d guess fuel vapors entering the dist through a ruptered dist vacuum advance as a result of a flooding carb condition at shut down. The vapors that collected in the dist cap were ignited by the spark when cranking. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
