I'm interested. I emailed you.
I recently got a Winfield intake at a swap meet for a price I couldn't pass up. And I don't have a Winfield carburetor but would like to use it on...
Thanks it was a good deal even though I do have a Winfield carburetor to go with it. I still couldn't pass it up. Has anyone adapted any other...
I found this intake at a swap meet today. It has me a little puzzled though as it doesn't look like all the other Winfield A/B intakes I have...
Not really a update because I'm waiting on my engine to get the machine work done still. But I did get my reworked B cam to a Winfield 1R specs...
Looking for info on using a 6" SBC balancer on my A. I did a search and found a couple post with pics and one with a couple measurements. But I'm...

I have kind of a small change to the build but not really a update. I sold my 6.1 Snyder head and picked up a Thomas repop instead. I is nice but...
He is a good source for early ford parts around these parts. I have got a few parts from him in the past. good guy.
I have a single 97,set of 81's and the set of Holley 92's. I will try duals to start if it is too much I have options I guess. My Banger is in...
Nice looking coupe. I'm assuming you live around the Kansas City area if you know Jimmy. I live in Kansas City,Ks and am in the process for...
They are a Holley replacement carburetor for the V8-60 Stromberg 81's with 7/8" throttle bores. They should work and if not I guess I have them to...
Thanks I will start with 4.5 PV in them and try to see if the stock .043 jets can be dialed in I might also get a set of .042 jets just incase...
Thanks for the info Fred so did you use the stock .043 jets in the 92's or did you go down?
I looked in them tonight and they have .043 jets in them now. As for the power valves they are 7.5hg stock and I have heard that 3.5hg to 4.5hg...
Really? Nothing
I thought I may get a couple more responses it I started a new thread about this. I found a good matching set of Holley 92/81 carburetor with AA...
Well a little bit of a update with some more carb questions. So I was able to fine a nice set of matching Holley 92's both with aa-7/8 bases and...

[ATTACH] I started porting the intakes tonight only for about 10min though. How much can you open up the floor into the bowl can you take it all...
I was looking around the garage and forgot I even had this oil gauge I had won off fleabay awhile back. It is NOS and cool but I'm not sure I...
Thanks for the pictures and info I'm trying to get a plan on mine as I plan of pressurizing oil to all the mains as well. I have one of the oil...
Thanks for you story I hope I and others can unfortunately learn from your mishaps. I like the way you plumbed for your pressure main how is the...
Thanks those pics help a ton. Why so many crankshaft failures? Are you using a turned B crank or Burlington? Babbitt or inserts?
I have been told a single 97 will be easier to dial in the idle but that dual 81's will give more top end. But I have no experience with either so...
Thanks for sharing the pics 5280A2. I was planning on making the rear transmission mounts like you did which is why I got a 32 flywheel housing....
I forgot about my drivetrain parts. I have a lightened flywheel w/ 9" clutch and B case and 40's V8 transmission for the good gears and...
I agree I like the look of vintage hot rod parts and the reliability of modern engine technology... Insert bearings, modern valve train, oil...
I'm still debating if I should go with dual 81's or a single 97. I have the carbs for either and I'm on the hunt for a manifold for either. Jim B....
