Hey guys love the forum, I live out in el paso just picked up a 53 pontiac 4 door straight 8 with the hydromatic trans. Al so have a 64 plymouth sport fury with the 318 poly in it.
If you have any 318 Poly questions, let me know - I'd be more than glad to answer any you might have! ~Jason
Welcome from OKC. Does the Pontiac happen to the one owned by Nat & Andy Bell? I'm in El Paso a couple of times a year to go and build houses in Juarez............still can't understand why I didn't find the Orbitorn................
Thanks alot i'll keep you in mind after i'm done with the poncho shes up first then i'll get to the fury.
Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Bare Bones you gotta love the chicos. Randaddy: no i actually picked up the pontiac in deming nm. The funny thing was when i went to pick the car up i look at the the motor and it's set up to run on propane. I already took all the propane stuff off and have a 2 brl to 4 brl addapter on the intake with a holly 650 mechanical secondary on it. I install the holly after i took off the old carter. The great think about the car is that it was storred inside for 15 yrs. and only spent a year outside in deming. The body is in great shape the motor is actually really clean too. Apparently back in the 70's propane conversion was really popular. i was worried because propane containes alot condensation, but there was an oiler hooked up to the intake and the oiler was connected to an old can of marvel mystery oil. I'll post some pics of the car and all the wired propane equipment to night. I think i'll start a new thread on it. Again guys thank you for making me feel so welcome. Dave
