Any others out there

 

Inline 6, 170 Pursuit very worked over. Carby is a Holley copy of a Weber. A Toyota 5 speed gearbox coupled to a 9 inch Ford Differential with 4:86 ratio.


Inline 6 in my 48 Ford. 6BT ***mins 5.9 Litre. C6 Auto and US gear overdrive.

I also have an inline 6 in my international truck. But I doubt that would interest you.

 

She isnt pretty, but she gets the job done.

 

Most fun I have ever had in the hobby!

It is a DOHC inline 6 and you said Toyota so I couldn't resist posting a pic of my very non-HAMB'ish inline 6 2JZ. It's a nice little motor, though (imo)




It's the only one I have right now but I'm working as fast as I can to fix that.

 

^^ sum *****! twins

I have 56 235 sitting in the floor of my shop. New fentons, offy tripple intake ready to go on it. Just have to find three carbs.

 

i'm buildin a 27 chev RPU that'll cop a 53 desoto flathead six with twin carters and whatever other go fast bits i can pick up for reasonable money.

 

here the link to my very slow build thread...willys straight 6 flathead

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=692444

 

57 Plymouth 230, .030 over, Edgy aluminum head, Offy intake, Carter/Webbers, Fenton cast iron headers, S10 HEI dist. In front of a 53 model Borg Warner R10 OD transmission and stock 4.10 gears in my 48 Plymouth Club Coupe.

 

My Ford 300 I built up for my OT shop truck.

Holley 600 on Offenhauser Intake, Comp 270 Cam, Hedman 3x2 Header, plus port and head work. It will absolutely run circles around similar year 302's and 351's.

 

I do not know about that engine but the 5 speed behind my 170 really makes that little inline 6 fly.

 

My friend and fellow Hamber Roger is helping me build a 32 style frame from scratch, stretched 5 inches in front of the firewall to accommodate a big Hudson 308 for my 30 Model A roadster.
I've been slowly gathering speed parts for the old Hornet engine and am still not decided whether to run a Hudson transmission converted to floor shift or pony up the big bucks to get the adapter to mount a T5 to it instead.
I will be starting a build thread when I feel I have enough progress shots to warrant a story. For right now, despite all the work so far, there is not much to see, but I am very grateful to have met Roger and have his help and advice as this goes forward. All I know for sure is that if we keep going with the attention to detail, this little roadster will be a very, very bad girl.

 

hey gigantor that sounds like a really cool car, those hudson 308's are awesome. i've got a poster of this one hanging on the wall above my bench at work.

 

Ford 226 flathead, .060" over, Nielsen reground 3/4 cam, Nicson Intake, Knudsen head, home built split manifold, Petronix ignition, backed up with a 3 speed overdrive and 3:73 gears.

 

What kind of fuel mileage do you expect? Compared to a 302/351?

 

In a early 80's F-150 with the aerodynamics of a small house, it gets 18 mpg all the time with the original AOD still hooked up behind it. Mileage drops to about 12 with the car trailer behind it. I have never heard of a 302 / 351 getting better then 15 or 16 in a similar truck.

 

Heres my 223 - .080 over , cam, headers, weber 2 barrell

 

What cam you got chris f100

 

54 235 in my 53, bored .040 over, mild cam, decked block and milled head, all new valves, and bottom end. fentons and a few chrome goodies. future plans are a dual carb set up and a change from the 70 3 spd ****** to a T5

 

You got that right-Best motor Ford ever made!
