Jim, sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. Jeff
This has been sitting beside my nephew's house for over 10 years. They get quite offended if anyone inquires about it, the're going to fix it up...
Stovebolt, the early top bolted right on, and it seems to shift fine (sitting on the garage floor) These things found me, still learning about them.
Or you could do a later model Packard trans with an overdrive. These a 54's with Borg Warner R11 overdrives. Use a 37-39 swan neck top, with the...
I'm running 8 solenoids, 4 switches in a row. The first 2 control the front, for levelling side to side. The third switch is for both rear bags at...
The kit requires a regular starter for a small block chev. The starter was new in the box.
I did a 261/turbo 350 combo about 10 years ago in my dad's 51 Chev hardtop. Camaro 10 bolt with high 2's for gears. The only problem I ran into...
I,ve got a few pics for you, just send them to the email address in your post?
Lookin' good Dale!
Been watching your build for quite some time, great stuff! Ya got my vote.
Packard 3 speeds are an opton. You could use a mid fifties overdrive tranny with a 37-38 floor shift. It could take a bit of hunting but it...
Holy crap, this is sure dragging up some ancient history! #326 on this version of the HAMB, where did the time go? It's good to see some old...
Hay Dale, good to see you're alive and well! This will be a great build, I wouldn't expect anything less after the RPU. What about a Packard 3...
Here's my old 1/4 midget from the mid 70's. [IMG]
Here ya go Paul, this is a friend's set up. He had the same problem as you, I'm pretty sure he cut up an aluminum 394 manifold for the water cross...
The 2.5 should be just fine. I've got a 99 extended cab with the 2.2 and a 5 speed, when I rolled it across the scales at the dragstrip I was...
You bet, that's why I didn't say too much, he should tell the story.
Here's a buddy's 32 Olds he just got on the road a couple of weeks ago. [IMG]
Paul, the 303 looks killer! Here's my heap as it sit today. [img]
I just sold this guy some Nicson marine manifolds for his 324 Olds powered boat, it sure looks sweet. It's kind of a neat story how the guy got...
I've just been released from rehab for HAMB addicts! I figured it was time to poke my head out of the gopher hole and see what was going on. How's...
Hey Root, how ya been? I modified the stock one on dad's swap a couple yaers ago. [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
Here's another.
Great post! I'll have to try this for my Olds.
Good luck on finding a double groove with out paying stupid money. They only came on AC cars, the power steering pump was driven off the back of...
I thought I was the only one tired of seeing the same pic 5 times in a post. JYD, thanks for the tutorial, I never noticed the black buttons on...
I think it was Hurst that made a dropped drag link for when you put an Olds in a shoebox, it might work with the hemi.
Bluto, you can't just show us one pic and clam up. Let's see that thing, man is it cool!
