Ok, on that note, if it's by the foot, how many feet would one need for a V8? Anyone know a place with reasonable prices? Thanks. It's primitive...
They're actually made to go under rams horns, the rebuilder just had log type manifolds and stuck em up there outta the way. It's primitive...
So I've picked up a SWEET little 283 from a greybeard for my '54. It has Packard plug wires (that I'm in LOVE with!) and a points distributor. The...
Well, since the 327 has blown up, I'll have to see how the 283 fairs. I just wanted to take every precaution I can before putting a lot of miles...
I'd just asked because my radiator has taken a beating in its life. The top has been a resting place for more than one heavy arm and while it was...
Guys, in my '54 Chevy I'm swapping my engine (blew the 327) and I'm dropping in a 283. YEARS ago the previous owner told me he had the stock...
A 12 volt generator? Is the regulator with it? Do you know how many amps? Thanks, everyone! It's primitive technology that is further...
Thanks, guys! Yeah, I put the stockers back in, a few with modern replacement movements. Just wanted to make sure! Posted using the Full Custom...
Guys, I have a 1954 Chevy 210 2 door sedan and I'm wanting to switch back to a generator. While doing my reading, I keep seeing that some models...
Alright, guys. My '54 Chevy 2 door is down with a blown head gasket. While I'm changing that, should I switch to roller rockers or leave them as...
We decided to skip the blue but I did post some pics in another thread. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Ok, not the whole car yet. But my father in law helped me put some scallops on the hood (after some bodywork) and get it ready in time for a show....

Guys, I'll be scalloping my '54 Chevy 2 door soon and have some questions. The car's already painted black, basecoat/clearcoat. Do I tape off the...
I drove around for YEARS without a working dome light. Even replaced the socket, but I could never figure out why it didn't work. Then one day,...
This is for a '53, '54 should be similar. Dome lamp is right above the box that talks about wire color. Hope it helps!...
It really depends on the paint. Oiled based (One Shot) will need a hardener added to it to be cleared over, and even then I wouldn't do it because...
Thanks so much for sharing this! This'll give me value priced options for experimental glitter that I can use for this as well as adding to my...
I already have some of those laminated striped ones like The Hirohata Merc has, I just want something different. Metalflake or pearl maybe? I know...
Ok, guys. I've done a search, but still have questions. I'm thinking of the built not bought approach with dash knobs. I have a few that I like...
