The flywheel is cast iron, so it is easily stripped if the bolt is over tightened.

If installing a Helicoil or similar insert use the pressure plate for an alignment guide when drilling.

The horn power comes right off the cutout, doesn't go through the fuse unless the engine is off.

Re: How many miles should spark plugs last?

Swap # 4 plug around w/another plug, drive it around for a while then check the plug that is in #4 and also the plug that was previously in #4.

Re: Lifting 30 Tudor body

What exactly needs welding? Maybe you don't need to lift the body.

Re: Cleaning the radiator

Yes, if the engine is stopped, if it's still running water can be added slowly. Old school trick, (been there, done that).

Re: Water Pump Options

Tighten the packing nut slowly when the engine is running, not when it's stopped.
