Welcome Stu, from Central Illinois!
I fabbed up a similar set up with the pivot in front of the center crossmember of my A and a 40 Ford master cyl behind the crossmember. I had to...
Where ya located Tinman? I may actually be off for this one if it's the 6th.
I'll be 35 if I make it to the end of March. Started assembling my Johnny Cash Special in the spring of '05 and I was driving it a year later....
I should add that the engine was in the car (with the head on) when I did it, that's why I didn't just have it half dipped. Luke
Muriatic is available thru hardware stores in the paint dept. It's used for etching concrete. I think 4 parts water to one part acid is what I...
I've seen a couple of guys chain their engines upside down and half-dip them. Personally, I use muriatic acid to flush out the water system with...
Cart body good. Full size version bad.
I have a question for anyone with expirience cutting on a Super Winfield Head... A buddy wanted to get some more oomph out of his standard S/W...
Thanks for starting the thread Kevin. It reminded me to put my magnetic on my A. Don't drive it much from Dec to Feb, but I like to keep the...

Too bad we can't take it a step further and use the shock wave created by the closing intake valve traveling up the intake manifold and back and...
Thanks to you and the other contributers this is fast becoming my favorite banger meet. Thanks guys! Luke.
Don't know a thing about it other than my pants just got tighter! Where is that?

Great thread and great job Bobby. Thanks for the reminder. You guys are so far beyond anything I could ever imagine. Keep rockin'.
Sports Coupe. Harold has one other pic of it- after he was hit by a switch engine. It demolished the car, but he came out with only a few bruises...
Good to know, I've been thinking about turning the flywheel but am uncertain as to weather it will help or hurt me in running hills. I know it...
Not sure if I've put this on here before, but I think it's cool enough to show... [img] My good friend Harold Daugherty posing proudly with his...
Cool, that makes me feel a whole lot better about my odds. Thanks.
I was thinking about a dual updraft with two B carbs, as I have a spare, but I'm thinking that might be overkill.
Is your crank counter balanced? I'm running a B carb on an A manifold. The Manifold will get drilled out this winter to match the B carb throat....
The deck is stock, unplaned and the head I am currently running is Ford A milled .030.
1000 miles on a recent build. Stock .040 over pistons from Snyders, mains and (stock) rods .020 under. There were a lot of questions I should have...
