I'm not a Hemi guy, but can that block handle an 8-71? 3blap.
My '32 had this treatment and was originally from NJ. I couldn't fix it soon enough! It looks so dumb with the 3" less (I'm guessing on the...
Yeah, it's too rowdy for sheet metal. 3blap.
Looks good with the hood & grille! Just FYI, ditch the 4.5" grinder for dressing welds. 4.5" grinders are for dressing welds on fences, gates...
Oh man... that chain drive is nuts! Cool looking rig... any more pics? 3blap.
Interesting. Thanks for the response! 3blap.
Did you flip it so that it fits better? Please advise. 3blap.
This ought to be good... I'll be watching! ;) FWIW, I think H&H has snouts & possibly pulleys. 3blap.
I like how you don't hesitate to get things done! Hurry up and mount the grille shell... and cover that radiator up!!! ;) It's always good to...
Heck yeah dude! It looks like it's coming along! TBH, that radiator looks plenty big. I ran a pretty small one on my 8ba powered Model A...
Oh, that's right. I recall seeing a new looking aluminum radiator. Maybe Alchemy is right... maybe it needs to be thicker, or just hold more...
Interesting. Well, It's definitely worth a try and couldn't possibly hurt to get that rusty water out. Did you flow water through the radiator...
I just caught up as well! I am really digging the build and hope you continue to update here. I'm on IG but am over the advertising & BS...
Can I put in a request that you feature this build?! I watched your build thread on the pre-war stroker for the Cabrio, and it was quite...
Did you finish it? Can you post a picture here? 3blap.
Heck yeah! Sounds like progress! Keep at it! 3blap.
Excellent! Thank you Bob! I think I usually have to look them up everytime before ordering them since I have not committed that to memory! 3blap.
Hmmm, I don't think you need a proportioning valve. Would it balance your braking system? Yes. But that car is so light it really doesn't...
Damn. It doesn't make me feel any better. I had another problem similar to that just before I got to replace the cast iron sewer pipes in the...
I understand unexpected plumbing problems and the unexpected cash outlay. I'm kinda in the middle of that now as I'm halfway done paying for a...
That is the million dollar question! I think it's a chain drive setup, but have never seen it or pics of it. 3blap.
I'd adjust them more, if it were me. You want them to drag some when the wheel is in the air. You gotta remember that when you add the 2800lbs or...
Do yourself a favor and build it on the '32 wheelbase of 106" instead of the A 103"... that 3" will help A LOT in the long run. 3blap.
What's wrong with the tank you have now? I saw you don't want to put some cream stuff in it, but I don't know what you're referring to. I...
This is true. SDSurfer, are you adjusting the brakes at the backing plate so that they're slightly dragging? I think everyone has their own...
Needing to pump brakes means there's air in the system. The end. 3blap.
Doh! My transcription skills... solid D minus. 3blap.
Mine too! Dale... does that mean you're Vintagespeed on IG? 3blap.
Hahahahahahah... that's a great point! They do have mountains... they might have a few spots high enough in elevation to garner freezing...
FWIW, I would just start with stock timing and go from there. I believe it's 4 deg BTDC... which I believe is the bump on the pulley. You can...
