Re: Questions about Borgeson Power Steering?

I had a 67 mustang with the ram attached to the draglink. The thing leaked. They all seem to leak.

Re: Hole inside front block

Ken, I hope you are a member of the national club, and your local chapter...?

Ya know, it would not hurt to put your state on your profile... States are big places.

Re: Motor Meter or Quail

In all the years (since 1994) that was the only time my A was messed with.
Some people are just trash.

Re: Winfield Model M updraft carb

Dan, so SR is the best choice for an A, if you can find one? What is so special about these? I have never heard of them. I imagine these are big bucks, but gosh where would you ever get parts...

Re: Motor Meter or Quail

I have thought of that. I have one my painter painted for me when he painted my car. A whole lot less attractive, but I get your point.

Re: Motor Meter or Quail

From a function perspective you are correct, since I have had both. The gauge is very handy. The ornaments doo look cool though.

Re: Batteries completely discharging

Re: Chevrolet ohv head on a Ford Model A block adapter plate

Kind of interesting topic. I'd be afraid to use this on a T though. Seems like the increased RPM, and power would be hard on the crankshaft. T crankshafts are known to sometimes break.
