Cali plates in Oklahoma. Is that a repatriated okie?
Cars is in heavy rotation with the kids. I'm a big fan. If you watch anything too much though you can't help but study it, deconstruct it, then...
Spicolli, here are some more pictures of my '34 Plymouth with the 354 Hemi. Mine is a long wheelbase PE so I'm not sure if that makes a...

Thanks for the advice! The water ports coming out of the Weiand intake and going into the remote Offy thermostat are 1/2" NPT so I think I can go...
I think the flow adds. .5+.5=1 Thanks for the insight on the functionality of the back two ports. I'll just run lines to the front. The intake...
My dad bought the car in '93 from an old guy in a small mining town in Arizona. It had been sitting for years. Lots of people had asked to buy...
This is my first rodeo so I thought I would get some feedback before I throw money at this. I have a 354 hemi with truck heads so water must be...
The big box stores are a waste of time. And being new at this I am almost guaranteed to order the wrong thing or not enough of the right thing...
What do folks use to make custom rubber gaskets for exterior application? I need to make a set of gaskets for my headlight stands.
My project '34. I kept the original IFS, got dropped spindles, and a disc brake conversion up front. Has a 354 Hemi with dual fours, 727 trans,...
Thanks for the help. I don't think I want to use the stock distributor now. I will likely go with a Mopar like this one from Summit (SUM-850081):...
The base mounts right to the block and engages the intermediate shaft in the block no problem. I thought the tube above the oil fitting was a...
Yeah, the block is a VT-548 so it came out Dodge truck.
This is the distributor that came off the 354 I'm putting into my '34 Plymouth. I'm thinking about running it but I'm not really sure what it...
The frame with the squared lower corners looks like the 33/34 Plymouth. I measured the front side and got 43 1/4 w, 10 1/2 center, 12 outside....
That looks like my '34 Plymouth windshield. Strap looks just like that also. My frame from the backside measures 43 1/8" wide and 10" tall at...
It looks like someone spot welded the lower inside corners of the frame. I'm going to just cut through the welds and take it apart.
I'm trying to remove the metal frame from the windshield on my '34 Plymouth so I can replace the glass and polish up the frame. The frame seems...
Anyone have a good picture of the early Hemi truck valve covers with the Power Giant decal on them?
Cool. I was trying to find pictures of a valve cover with Power Giant on it. Anyone know if there are repops of those Power Giant 354 stickers?
My block is VT548-2760. Is this a 354 Chrysler from a Dodge truck? I haven't seen VT 548 referenced yet.
