In trying to find newer models to update brakes, within the same manuf, I'd start by looking at the wheel bearing. See what years used the same...
I thought you were going to be talking about El Cajon in San Diego county. That is what we called it in my "younger and partier" days.
Scarebird. New owner brought them back. Try looking for bearing application information. That might point to rotors.
Have the kit, watched the video's. Took the IBR off, this thing has seen attention, or has very low miles. The seals seem fresh, clean and soft....
Totally agree and appreciate the comments. I purchased the Passion book on A833's and rebuilding them. I've scanned it, but I'll do a more deep...
I started think (dangerous) about the fact that this is from a 1980 truck. That got me thinking about the seals, and wondering if they might leak....
It's only got 30 miles on it. Wait for the rings to seat.
When I still had the cover off, I could see the movement was at the roller bearings. Even without any grease, it doesn't feel "worn out". It rolls...
Thanks. I figured, but I haven't run one since the mid 80's. Getting paranoid in my old age.
The inside of the tranny looks brand new. No visible wear on even the synco's, all gears engage fine. Am I being paranoid about this amount of...
It is the one I have. Did my Carter WA-1's in it. Most of a carb will fit. I did the cast iron bases in a sep load.
I know what the clutch in the truck is, that's not going to be used though. I'll be using a 10.5 inch clutch (because it's been done and don't...
Yes, it would be nice to know...for me also. I have a 58 engine based upon the serial number, I have to assume the flywheel came with it since the...
Does anyone know if the bolt circle for bolting the pressure plate to the flywheel is the same between the flatheads and off topic Mopar V8's I'm...
That's funny. We usually use a VW one because the HD ones fail so often.
I am using a off topic master in my 46, after converting the rear to an off topic axle and using a disk brake conversion. The master has M10...
OK, but I only looked at what was posted here. I like the idea of a vertical lift, that's one good idea here. Many good idea's are poorly executed.
Is that a Belvedere? I love that body, in any of the three trim levels. I say do whatever YOU like best. Does it have the 230 in it or the V8? If...
Well, I did say it was for lifting engines, but I don't see that in the seller words. Maybe that part was in the ad. I only like the basic design....
My only comment would be was that the smallest winch he could get. 3000Lbs would be a pretty heavy engine, and it's got some multipliers. I'd love...
I used the Eastwood single stage and I found it to be easy to use and was easy to wet sand and buff. The drivers fender and door have it in my...
Decided to use them.
[ATTACH] New, never installed. I've only ever mounted the carbs on the flanges to look at it. Comes complete for what Speedway or Summit charge...
At home I use a Panduit set, that is a probable copy of the T&B ones shown. They even used two colors for the insulated handles. At work, I have a...
For anyone interested in the strange and bizarre, the CV40 design. Just "blocked out" not finished.[ATTACH]
Well, it would be great to at the least document it for posterity. I thought about the carb heights, but I'm not sure other than ram effect there...
[ATTACH] This is what I've come up with. Take it with a cautious huge grain of salt, as I don't have either the A833 or a loose bell housing to...
I appreciate your help.
In an attempt to reduce the costs a bit... [ATTACH]
This is my attempt to copy the AoK intake. The original is of course cast. I can't pay for things like that, so this has machined flanges and I'm...
