Tiny, How tall are the 750's? And how well do they work with the 'banger-approx top speed? Couldn't find BFG's on Coker's site, but did find them...
Head looks great...wish I could find one. Matt, I hate to hijack...but where are you guys finding 17" tires? Answers here:...
I've seen a few tires on Coker's site. It seems like when trying to search their site, there's not a lot of choice in 17's, and I was wondering if...
What tires are available for 17" Ford wires these days?
Did you run the choke's stove pipe down to the new header?
Love this thread. I wish there was one just like it for coupes!
If the light is a dial-back, I would suspect something wrong with it. If your car REALLY has 20 degrees of ignition timing "slop" at idle, the car...
PROGRESS TODAY: Carburetor rebuilt and back in. Fuel line run and sediment bowl mounted. 19" wheels are back on. New belt-which took HOURS to put...
NeilsK, I linked the pic from Jesper Bram's website...he did the lettering. I happened to see it the other day, and LOVE the way the car looks. I...
How old is your timing chain?
32-34 B and C trans will bolt to the banger (I think...not an expert!) Might look at this, too:...
There's your best option to getting a full-synchro trans. You're still gonna be stuck with 1:1 top gear. Taller tires...the poor man's overdrive.
No Banger speed parts. Zero. Zip. Nada. I did see a couple of Stromberg 81's, but they were pretty roached, and not a single downdraft banger...
Headed to a swap meet today to look for some 16" wires and banger speed parts.
Looks like this, A Rodder: [IMG]
I was thinking that pump on the late 31, if you put it right below the shut-off you could run the wires through the grommet and it'd hide pretty...
If you're running 12V, hide the wires and this looks kind of like a fuel filter....
Yup. My OT Pontiac ran 12:60's with mufflers, street tires, and 3.08 gears.
Dave, I've yet to find one. Pops was a dirt-poor, rural Oklahoma farm kid. My grandmother raised him on my grandfather's Army pension, selling a...
There's LOTS of them still out there, but not a lot of them in the shape I found mine. Most of the the solid ones are either REALLY nice (read...
I've been scouring the interwebs for a ready-made spacer, but no luck so far. My drums have sort of a shelf (for lack of a better word) around the...
Bruce, are the Mallory distributors for A's any better than a rebuilt factory one? Any performance/reliability advantage to having the centrifugal...
Someone put a Frantz filter on my truck a long time ago. One of these days I'm going to pull the leaky bastard off. Already would have but the...
Mine as of 5:00 pm CST today. [IMG]
I'm pretty sure the old aftermarket filters aren't designed for full flow.
If your road draft tube is oily, it's probably working. I have an OT bike that makes brown gooey stuff on the bottom of the carbs at the drain and...
Still not running...no soldering iron, heat shrink tubing, or good wire crimpers at the shop (left them here at the house last time I used...

My 283/PG C10 sings on the highway, but it'll run all day at 80+ mph and gets better than 16 mpg at that speed (probably needs a tuneup). You may...
Got the shell and radiator off my car right now. Are you needing the height of the shell (at top of hood) to the frame? Hard to tell from the pics...
