Starter is one of the smaller, hi torque jobbies (would have to look at it to tell you which brand) - had to use that for space concerns, the...

Go to Scooter's Hemi page on here...you'll choke on all the resources and info there. There are PLENTY of Hemi gurus on here - ask and you shall...
The people and cars in the Pacific NW can't be beat. I loved the guys up there- great scene, plenty of events in the glorious Summer, and long,...
Thanks ND! I should have been done with this years ago if not for repeated deployments, PCS moves, and some questionable machine work... but...
Love what you're doing with the car! I have a similar "Plymouth problem" in the garage, only I didn't use the Explorer rear, or a 318, but the...

I love those old Hudsons! The paint scheme totally works, and she looks great. Tune her up and drive the snot out of her!
Yeah, but Bob...your engine is sick looking with the orange block, silver valve covers and that :eek: crazy 3x2 intake! I bet you have fun...
Thanks dubcee - I've had multiple opportunities to snag Hemi heads for this motor, and have passed each time. Yeah, I know....all the cool kids...
Guess what just came back from the machine shop?!?! [ATTACH] Posted from the TJJ App for iPhone & iPad
Bingo! Look at what Shadowmtnkustomz (think that's his HAMB call sign) did with his - gutted an older Plymouth and shoehorned the Poly and rear...
Get 'em in there young. I love having my son help with the '49 Plymouth - and he enjoys learning a skill. Too many kids just want to play on...
I'm at 17.5 years now... 2.5 more in the club, and I am eligible to hang it up.
Dang ALLSTEEL - that truck looks great! Thanks for the hint on bumping up the mileage. I'm only gonna run a 2x2, so let's hope I can get your...
I miss the PNW so much - Winter spent wrenching and Summer spent driving and going to amazing car shows. Looking great RH - keep after it!
Dang...this is the kind of tech I could pull off. Thanks, Smokey! (and none of grandma's priceless Jefferson cups will be sacrificed...promise)
Sigh...I know I'm gonna take flak for the alternator...but have to balance cost, reliability, and driveability. Maybe after I hit the lottery, I...
Thanks - this has been a saga, but it'll be worth it! As for the dizzy - Pertronix installed, vacuum advance eliminated (so no holes in my Offy...
Dizzy teaser pic from Dan - testy old dual points are no more. [ATTACH] Posted from the TJJ App for iPhone & iPad
Dizzy came back rebuilt with its new Pertronix guts today. The block is at the machinist getting recleaned and a light hone, and he will redo the...
Oh yeah - love the way that BBC sounds. Now if we could just find you a posi rear end....
Anybody who has ever driven an old deuce and a half or five ton (before they started putting automatic transmissions in all the military trucks)...
Uh...hate to break it to you, but those aren't '49 Plymouth bumpers on your coupe. Check out the real 49 bumper in my avatar - 3 ripples.
Yeah...something's rotten in Denmark here. I'd be twisting that neighbor in knots until he fessed up about having a hand in this.
Yee haw...great trip in an open roadster! Looking forward to updates!
Drove a few French cars with 4 speed column (Puegot comes to mind). One, a Citroen Mehari, had the 4 speed shifter on the dash! I loved the 3 on...
