Gentlemen, I followed the hamb for quite a while and found a lot of useful information that actually just solved a problem I was chasing for almost 2 years. So I thought maybe I could give something back. Just call me Nasa. That comes from my last name and a lot of people being unable to pronounce it. I am still working on my first cl***ic, a 58 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser with a fine 383MEL engine (which I cursed more than once). It's called "The Bananaboat"! And I live on northern Germany, where US parts are rare and expensive. That's why I come up with one or another unconventional solution. It ain't dumb if it works right? However, I don't know what else to say. Here I am.
