Just remember if you have to lay the Ace bottle down for any reason (like transport) to let it sit upright a few hours before using.
I would look for older victor stuff. I have a few different outfits and they are all great. The last set of regs and 2 torches I found on C-list...
I have heard Tri-five fenderwells fit, and I have heard that they take some modification. But I would love to know as well if anybody has done it....
Looks GREAT! What size wheels and tires are you running?
Thank you for the help 1971. I definatley dont want my hood getting quite that warm lol. Are the Speedway headers made by Patriot or are they 2...
Dynosim shows my combo at 550/535. Of course those numbers are made by a computer, so I don't really know what it will be in reality, but it...
Thank you for the help hotroddon. I wish these were available in 1 3/4 primaries, but so far this is as close as I have came to something that...
Ok I found a few old threads where it sounds like the headers below would work....
I am about to drop a 388 stroker in my 53 that has a CE M2 front end. I know about the block huggers that are very popular for this swap, but I'm...
Just what I like to hear!:D
Just what I needed to clarify. Thank you gentlemen!
Thank you Jkustom
Getting close to dropping in a 383 stroker in my '53 Chevy. I am needing to get a intake manifold, but don't have the front fenders or hood...
Yes they definatley will, I've drove them before. Luckily this setup will see very minimal street use, and it's just temporary until I go to a...
I have a Ford 9'' rear in a slightly OT old vehicle. I plan on doing a gear swap in the near future and adding a detroit locker and some stouter...
The pump itself doesn't move. You remove the 4 bolts on top of the IP and rotate the pin inside the pump to ad more fuel, along with a few other...
Judd, check out dieseltruckresource.com, they have a section for first generation dodges. Search for "fuel pin", "star wheel", and "smoke screw"....
I believe it's a pretty straight forward swap. The NV4500 was in dodges/cummins made 94-02.
I'm sure you could plumb in a intercooler pretty easily. As for a trans, a getrag was the original 5 spd that came with those trucks. A good...
Just FYI, 5.9 cummins were not intercooled until the '91 model year if that matters to you. They also had a VE injection pump that is very easlily...
Just a note Southfork, but the Ranger rears do not have 31 spline axles.
I believe they are 61.5" if I remember correctly.
I used a Ford 8.8 out of a Explorer. Measures 59.5", your factory rear is 60". I went with a CE leaf kit as well so it was as easy as cutting off...
Did you grind out the crack before welding over it?
Well I got the rear end in the car last night and am going to be ordering wheels soon. I used a Explorer rear at 59.5". As mentioned previously I...
I agree with above. The Miller 211 is a great machine, can't go wrong. I have a 251, and it works great, but is likely more than you would need...
I agree, and a great thread it is. Let's see more!
Great thread. Hotrod is the look I am going for with my '53 chevy. I appreciate the customs, but it's just not for me. I like the look of this...
For people that are having a hard time seeing the puddle, I recommend a Pancake hood. I have been using them for a while and while they are funny...
Check out chevytalk.org There is a great 49-54 forum over there worth searching. And all the front sheet metal comes right off, I know some...
