If it had water in it before, how did you get it out? Did you get it all out? It could be that there was water still in the oil galleries.
The intake will not cause water in the oil. That intake will work on any pre-vortec engine. Sounds like you have a bad head gasket. Or cracked...
Apparently I was wrong. I guess I'm not that familiar with later model SBCs.
I don't think that is correct. I've never heard of an externally balanced 305. The only externally balanced small block is the 400. And the only...
Got some more done today. I got the floor cut out, raised four inches and reinstalled. Not completely but enough that I could get the frame under...
You wouldn't happen to have a spare oil pan or distributor that you want to sell do you? I'm not sure about my trans choice yet. I've got a Super...
Thanks for the kind words. I've been building this car in my head for a long time. Luckily all the parts have just fallen together at the right...
I picked up a '55- '64 rearend last week. It was cheap and the right size for what I needed. Got it home and found out it was a 3.36. Just about...
I got a lot more done today,but I forgot to take the camera with me. Here are some from last night though. Measuring how much room I have for...
Thanks for the compliments. You're the nearest HAMBer i've come across. Anything hot rod related going on in Pensacola?
Three lug nuts and a brake pad.
It's exactly what I was looking for. Perfect for what I'm building. And it was at my front door within two weeks of speaking to him. Yeah........
That is correct. That is the one that he had pictures of on another thread.
And here is the frame. [IMG]
I had originally planned on running a small block with three dueces. I also ordered a frame back in April but it never got built. But the HAMB did...
And some more after if got primed. [IMG]
Once I got it home and made some room for it in the shop I started cleaning it up a bit. First I tried ospho. It got a lot of the crustier surface...
It is finally time to start a build thread. I've been gathering parts all summer and I've gotten held up on a couple of items, but now that i got...
I run my three deuce set-ups @ around 5 psi. but you should get away with six without any trouble.
It looks great, man. I think I'll take it! Roger
I went last year for the first time and I'll be back this year. I was hoping to have my newest project done in time, but it looks like I'll be...
4th Saturday Classic Cruisers Car Club, Burger King (Lynn Haven) 6-8:00pm
I live here. Not too much car related really except the Saturday cruise-ins. Kinda lame in my opinion, but there is one each week in a different...
Even when you buy the "right" parts, a little fabrication is required. Apparently your frame rails are further apart than the frame that those...
No... Not really. I didn't ask what I needed to build a frame. I'm asking other peoples experience with frames built by other people. Thanks to...
Yeah, I just sold one of the best stock frames i've seen in a while. Cheap. I shoulda waited until I had the new one first. I really don't want a...
Yeah. No shit? It's not my first time on here. Try doing a search for "model A frame" and see what you come up with. It kills me how many...
Thanks man! I'm waiting to hear back from bobbleed. Hopefuly he's not too booked up. I'm ready to get started on this build.
That's real helpful input!
I've been collecting parts for my '29 Sedan build for a couple of months now. Thought I had everything figured out. I found a great sedan body,...
