You still need an engineers certificate to get 90 day club registration, and you must keep an up to date log book of every single mile you drive,...
I am in the South Eastern Bayside area, not far from Dandenong where you are. Its vastly more difficult getting a Rod registered in Australia...
Biomedical engineers only get to work on "stuff" they are never let loose anywhere near patients. I know this because I once worked in the...
The career path to becoming a fully qualified steam locomotive or marine steam engineer is a very long one, and as worthy of respect as the guys...
That is probably true if you are an engineer in the public service, or working for a multinational corporation as one tiny individual in a huge...
Retired electronic engineer here. Its sad that real hands on electronic engineering is becoming much more rare these days. Most that start out...
O/k, straight axles front guards Jacked up both ends fenderwell headers tunnel ram roll bar big tach on the dash or hood Sounds like...
Dana 44's do have two different spline counts, the smaller is usually fitted to front 44 diffs with smaller axles, and the larger to rear 44 diffs...
I am looking for a 3.54 Jag diff for myself right now. Should be able to get a whole rear end or just the bare diff for around $400 (or less)....
I think you might be in a whole world of pain trying to change the ratio of an existing Jag diff. Jag did make a 3.77 factory ratio, it may be...
Beetroots definitely bleed when stabbed.
No it won't. Bounce the car, and BOTH front wheels can toe in and out together creating massive bump steer. The steering wheel will not...
These blowers have been around since 1860 long before even the gasoline engine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roots_type_supercharger No real way...
I agree with OldTin. Most of the purpose built engine superchargers are well enough known to Rodders to be instantly recognisable. But many...
I agree with earlier posts, a cheap blower is cheap for a reason. It is probably completely worn out and very noisy, unless you have your own...
Quick answer is driveshafts both dead straight and horizontal. Lower arms slope up about 65mm to the diff. Set pinion dead horizontal, pinion...
I have never tried to remove one of these pins yet, not looking forward to it Are these pins tapered or straight ? Will they come out either way.
Wrong technique. You sit the end of a three foot steel ruler up against the frame, and read off the string.
The best HAMB thread ever Brian. Thank you ! Just one tip about bending frame rails. A tight string right down the middle of the chassis...
Yup, Mritech has the right idea. Even if you don't plan to run a hood, fit the grille shell in the position it should be in as if you did have a...
Drill a ring of small holes, then join them up, and use a file to finish the job. Slow, but it costs nothing, you can get the hole right on size,...
Here in Victoria (Australia) there are three completely different ways to get a set of plates to get your rod onto the street. 1/ Join a club...
This is the best test of all because it is a true chemical test, and does not depend on just trying to judge the slightly different colour.
No, I told him how to do that and he got shitty.
That is even easier to do. But I cannot now be bothered telling you how exactly to fit an electrical bimetallic gauge behind the original A...
Duh ! You connect the electrical sender to the tank, and use an electrical fuel gauge on the dash. And surprise ! That is how every modern car...
Unless you fit an electric fuel gauge sender unit.
Yes, but you can put a ninety degree bend into the float rod. The secret is to get the float vertical travel to match the needle movement on the...
It is I that needs to apologize, I badly misread your post. Sorry Falcongeorge.
Duh? So fitting larger engines is not traditional hot rodding ? And anyone that suggests an engine swap does not belong on HAMB ?
