Trust me the Chevy headers have huge tubes..They are bigger than the Mopar tubes.These headers were on a 57 Chevy dragster .
After laying a gasket over the flange it looks like I will need new flanges welded on.That's not a real big problem.I was just hoping that I could...
These are fender well headers.I do have a set of Mopar headers but don't want to cut them up to get the flanges.
I have a set of Chevy small block headers and the flanges are pretty close to what the small block Mopar flanges are drilled.Can the Chevy flanges...
Somewhere in my junk pile I have a distributor from a 6 cylinder outboard motor that was belt drive.I always thought that would look pretty trick...
I have used HEI modules on Ford and Chrysler ignitions in the past.;)
[ATTACH]Had a slight measuring oversight and my one piece adapter became two.Try again within the next day or two.
Now I need to start searching out a carb from a Massey Ferguson 300 combine.They used a big one barrel sidedraft carb.
Just makes me realise how much I need to start seriously looking for a lathe.I can do a lot of things on my drill press but it does have its...
Glad I live in a city that is full of hicks like myself.We drive junky cars have chickens roaming loose.Neighbors playing loud music during the...
Dropped off the parts to a machinist friend.He said that he'll have it done by noon tomorrow.

What I currently have is a few hundred pounds of scrap metal sitting in my driveway that will not do anything without a bunch of electric wizbangs...
Picked one from an old chevy inline 6. Shouldn't be too difficult to make something work .
I'm headed down to my local pick and pull for supplies .
That is awesome!

want to put points ignition on an engine that never had them.
The engine that I have was never made available with a points style ignition.And nobody made one either.Picked up the motor for free.So why not...
So my question was has anybody cut the bottom of one type of distributor and grafted it to the top half of another.I want to use a Chrysler type...
My thread was deleted from last night for being too new of a subject.My question was about distributors and not the engine it was going on.
So distributors are too new of a subject to discuss????
I have a 47 also.It's pretty much a rolling shell.I'm slowly getting it together.Not really concerned with keeping it original.I have fitted a 250...
