Re: Fuel pressure regulator
I have the Holley low pressure regulator and it works fine MOST OF THE TIME. But, every so often I have to re-adjust that thing as it seems to have a mind of its own occasionally. Therefore, I...

Re: Aluminum head anti seize

Re: Chevy water pump on flathead
I had this set up on my '36 pickup for a while. It worked OK, but it placed the fan very low on the radiator and I had to use a smaller diameter fan to clear the lower outlets. That engine is an...

Re: back up camara

Re: pressure test 21 stud
I currently only have one 21 stud head for this prospective engine. I have a lead on another in the swapmeet section. So, 21 stud heads are a little more scarce than 24 types so I don't have any...

pressure test 21 stud

Re: 8rt Fan Blade Options?
I have a 6 blade on my '36 and I do not notice it being louder. Man, it moves the air. I cannot get my 8ba with 180* thermostats to run over 178*.

Re: G. B. Kurrasch
Ron, Beech 18 has twin tails like B 25's and 24's. I think that is the Songbird. I can see Uncle Sky but not Penny's head.

Re: Looking for a cariature ~~
Chap52, that is some neat history. I related the picture with the Grateful Dead song for obvious reasons when I chose it for my helmet visor. I was trying to be a "wild and crazy" jg.

Re: belly tank
Ronnie, from my research I guessed it to be from an Albatross. I would sure like to start that project, but many others are ahead of it now.
