Any ideas of the years these are or value?
Was visiting with my 98 year old grandfather earlier, he was reading about a recent build someone did and they used a Franklin steering box. He...
So prior to the paint, we tore the whole thing apart, completely... I went through the generator, and even taught my son some skills... I learned...

My dad bought it from the company he worked for, and that his father in law (my grandpa) was part owner of. I restored it as a tribute to both of...

Auburn Auto Machine. I highly recommend them. Mike is the owner and he knows his stuff. He did my 396 too. [IMG]

Stock color it is. A little lacquer thinner tomorrow to clean up the bores and gasket surfaces and viola..... [IMG]
Block is home from the machine shop, tanked and mag tested. All is good, heads will be back next week. So now for some color, since this is a "mid...
Ok, now I have to find some real headers. On the bright side... A big box showed up today with a Fenton intake from Dicks Hot Rod Place. [IMG]
Some pics... [IMG] [IMG]
I will back up the 327 with this 66 Muncie M20 [IMG]
Might put this wheel in it, came out of a 1930's Airflow [IMG]
The 66 is for me, I've had it over 30 years. The 32...... Well, that's debatable
That doesn't happen here!
The 327 will be nostalgic, unlike my 396.....
Now I just need to finish the other project I have going..... My 1966 SS396 Chevelle.... The block was cast in '65, I probably could have gone...
The manifold Dick just put together for me, a Fenton 3X2: [IMG] [IMG] The Edelbrock manifold that's sitting on the engine is a C355 it only fits...
Completely my plan, with some help from my partner in crime.... The kid reads all the good monthly and bi-monthly publications cover to cover.......
after much consideration I have decided to go SBC in my 32 Chev coupe, no new crap like a crate motor but a 1965 327, w/ 57 power pack heads,...
the intake ports are a great deal smaller on the manifold, I will lay it out and make sure no head protrudes into the tiny intake ports, I imagine...
So I have this tri power intake that is sized for 1955 Chev 265 heads and I want to run it on a set of 1957 heads with larger ports. I have not...
When I was a kid a bunch of us knew about a 40 Ford "Race car" covered in brush that no one could ever seem to get a chance to buy, it had a 265...
The heads are I believe 1957. The ports in the heads are a fair amount larger than those in the manifold, but there seems to be quite a bit of...
Got a set of 57 heads in the trade. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
So in a recent trade I acquired an Edelbrock C355 manifold and some other SBC parts, I understand this was basically a 1 year manifold and it has...
A few pics of my Wayne 39 pump. The face has been re-done but the globe and red body are 100% original equpment, I couldn't bring myself to strip...
