I know this is an old post but it is worth a shot. I am doing the same set up right now and I can't find anyone that has that part in stock....
I have been MIA as well but I have tried to contact Buddy a few times and never got a response.
My carbs bring a tear to my eye. They "WERE" large logo 97's that I had a friend polish for me and he polished off the logos... Wow, that intake...
I have mangled mine up pretty good trying to go it alone. What are your tips for aligning your doors? I am working on a 28 Sedan. Pics welcomed...
Looking pretty BADASS!!! I can't wait to toast one to you when you break 200!!!
Are the aluminum heads being retired?
Looking real good Russ and I am envious of your progress. I know I'm a little late to the party but the more pictures the merrier, right? I know...
Hahaha... I just realized I AM THE CONTACT IN CALIFORNIA. Sorry Russ I am not sure how I lost your email but I did. (guess I lost my brain as...
I would be happy to help out with the thermostat housing. Just send me some sketches of what you have in mind. I have my block sitting at home...
What an awesome story! Congratulations Buddy and to everyone on the team. Let me know if I can help moving forward. I love that you are already...
Part 2: The dealer options were fine. Purolator had a small one, which I have on my 38 engine, waiting for the restoration of their 65...
Thanks for all the info Russ! Here you go. Part 1: Cadillac 346 - Oil Filter Canister & Lines Info. I'm just about done with the overhaul...
WOW, Looking good!
WOW! That is sweet.
I wish my closet looked like that, mine is just filled up with my wife's crap.
I'm sure some of you are banging your head against the wall with my questions... but - If I have a properly set up transverse spring and bottom...
I think I am going to go the torque bar approach. Just need to hash out a few more details.
I'm definitely starting to lean that way. Do you have a side shot of the connection on top of the pumpkin? How does the arc of the third point...
So you think I could just use the spring and a torque arm on each side. I think this is would be what I wasn't to go after if possible. Simplest...
Yes I will be starting to post more pics again. Finally getting back into the swing of things, but I only get to work on it when my boys are...
I really appreciate all of the help, I'm afraid I might have put my self in a position of limited options.
Am I reading it right that they are saying this will work? Some times building this thing I feel so over my head.
I should not have too much travel with a transverse spring, do I need to be concerned about travel?
What are the concerns if I have to run such short bars?
I had a thread talking about this a while back but for the life of me I cannot find it so I would like to get the discussion going again since I...
Wow Buddy that is some crazy news about the heads. Are you starting a square one with the heads? Did Gary mention how he did on the salt?
I hope these problems with the heads are not due to the amateur marine shop that tried to help whittle them up for you.
It's been a while Buddy, I hope all is well.
Hope you are on the mend, hobbies pale in comparison to health.
Bad ass!!!!
