I'm building a 354 for my A Coupe and am trying to pick out a good camshaft for it. The 354 is a very nice standard bore engine, so we will be...
I'm sure that some parts stores are better than others, but I'm a little afraid that our local parts stores would have no clue what a '53...
If anyone was interested, those accelerator pumps will work. Now we are looking for the float hangars and a needle and seat. Does anyone know...
I have searched the forum and can't find an answer to my question. A friend is working on two Stromberg 4 barrels and the accelerator pumps are...
57 Ford works great for me.
How about brake fluid? Worked for me.
Vaseline use to fix them for awhile.
Here is my '40 Chevy. It has a 500 Cadillac Eldorado engine that has been cammed up a bit and it is backed by a turbo 400 with a 79 Trans Am rear...
Formula One Super Stock tires came out with the design around 1969. I had some brand new ones on my 69 Judge. Mickey Thompson continued to sell...

It would be 6 volt, but I have used it with 12 with no problems. The shift lever on the tailhousing is a overdrive lockout. I think there is an...

Nice looking Chevy and Ford customline
Thanks, Tim
I didn't miss anything, I suspect that we've had more hot rods than you have ever thought of having. I'm through with you, but this pretty much...
Good looking Ford! I bet that Cadillac engine fills up that engine bay! What manifolds or headers did you run?
Customline vicky, a million other hot rods didn't come out with nailhead buicks, hemis, 303 olds, small block chevies, or big block chevies. It...
Customline Vicky, I was really worried what you and others thought about me putting a big block chevy in my family's race car. Also, this car...
In the 70's, the car used to be a real light blue, almost white. It's a shame that track got closed up.
Customline Vicky, i really don't care what you think. A big block chevy is a great engine that I know something about and have extras in case I...
I didnt race it, my cousin raced it for many years in southern oklahoma. I will race it at lawton this year.
I would say that the steel crank (if in good shape) and 4 bolt main caps ought to be worth $150. The heads basically would be junk as they would...
