I’ve seen these for sale. Just a decision on +40 or +60...
Be looking at the Sealed Power L2166NF60 dome pistons. Obviously got flat tops in there at the moment. Just hope they’ll be ok to clear the 461...
Just been looking at the same pistons and I’d be looking at a CR 10.35.1 with my standard heads
I’ve got a pair of 461/462 heads with a Comp Cams XE268H. I’ll have a look at those pistons. Thanks
Cheers for that. I don’t suppose you have a link or any info on the pistons your using
Evening all. Looks like I need a rebore on my 327 as there seems to be a bit of rust on a couple of bores. Anybody got any advice on which ones...
Crap at this updating:rolleyes: Managed to get a lot done and started measuring up for the axle narrowing. Both cowls have been repaired and also...
Use Joe Gibbs in my flathead
50’s Ford Thames Firefly
Just found some more quality craftsmanship while blasting the body. Obviously thought it was better just to use some filler instead of steel. Same...
That’s a cracking looking coupe
Just looks like a hell of a lot to do at this point. Be worth it in the end though
[ATTACH] Well after the boredom set in I thought I’d strip it a little and may have got carried away:D [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Been a bit slow on the build as had an operation on my knee. Managed to strip it down a bit ready for the build. Body off the original chassis and...
Went out for a little trundle [ATTACH]
Yep running a temp sensor in each head down to two individual gauges. Both run pretty much exactly the same
Got 205-60-15 & 235-75-15 On my 40 Ford Coupe [ATTACH]
Thanks for the input. All suggestions and comments are appreciated
I’m not going for a high output motor but I want something a bit more powerful and reliable. I’ve been told the motor is a good runner but it’s...
Going to change the cam as well and correct springs come in the kit. I’ll check the heads over before they’re fitted.
This is what I’ve bought. Hopefully haven’t bought a pair of lemons. :)...
Ok many thanks
Well after a bit of searching around and following a bit of advice, I’ve managed to find a pair of good corvette heads. A pair of 2.02/1.6 valve...
Do you know of any heads for sale??
But then I’m not after high power/performance
Apparently these flow better than a generic 3x2 intake. I’m not after a high power engine. Saying that though, if this setup is detrimental to...
It’ll sit nicely between the rods on my ‘A’ that’s for sure. They’re supposedly jetted for this setup so it may work out ok
It’s a 3x2 adapter made by ‘vintage speed’.
Finding those heads over here could be a bit of a mission. This is the 2bbl setup that came on it [ATTACH]
I did think it looked a bit odd with it being so unusual looking and had thought about a proper 3x2 intake. Looks like I’ll have a change. At...
