Sorry about the bad news Rob. She was running good when you were going through the fair grounds at Des Moines I thought. Good luck!
Hey Rob , ****** ! really pleased to hear you're keeping the roadster Linc powered though , great ol engines ! Rod . .
Rob did all that rain sat. afternoon have any thing to do with it?? will you need my dual quad set up for the new build?
The rain had no effect,it rained fri. and this was on sat. The intake is not in the budget as of right now. Rob
I couldn't imagine a wise and talented individual like Rob lowering himself just so he could fit into the belly ****oned uni-brow look.
I was gonna call dibs on the ****** and bellhousing stuff! Glad to hear your staying to the lincoln power!
Hey! I pluck my brow ****! Haha! Rob gives me a hard time for my 283. Just givin' a little back (hence the smiley faces, right?) Anyway Rob, if you really wanna be cool, stuff this pig in there... Sent from my Droid using TJJ ****a!
freeze plug, those exhaust manifolds are original to Lincoln Y-blocks used in Ford med/heavy duty trucks. Fairly rare, Speedway sells some great repro units for y-blocks. We have been very lucky to have a buddy, Gary Moriss (2ndchance) here, he hooked us up with the extra Lincoln y-block a couple years ago when a friend of his was cleaning house. This sport is so fortunate to have a lot of very cool friends helpin each other out! Is that a 350? ~sololobo~
Well back in business,replaced the 55'341c.i with a 54 317 c.i Lincoln y block. Redone the heads and put the rest of the same trans,intake,ect. on the new engine.Runs just like it did before. Looking for 1957 368 c.i to put on the back burner.
Rob , is there any noticable differnce in performance in the roadster between the 341 and the 317 ? Great to hear you're back on the road too .
Glad to hear the roadster is back up and running....and still Lincoln powered!!!! Looking forward to Salina!!!
It seems to rev a little faster,sounds higher pitch. The power feels about the same.We will see how it does on the hiway on my way to salina this weekend. I'm a happy camper for sure! Rob
