Re: 1957 lincoln parts availability
well, I wouldn't say I'm learning to swim, I'm just unfamiliar with the particulars of the lincolns. I currently own a 28 ford and am building a 32. both are filled with earlier ford parts though....

Re: Stromberg BIG 97
physically the carbs are the same as a 94. only real difference is that the throttle plates are much bigger so the intake would need to be match ported.

Re: Stromberg BIG 97

Re: Stromberg BIG 97
i looked up the number and it wasn't a bugspray carb. pretty sure it was an oem ford unit or replacement from the 50's. the bugspray units have electric choke if I'm not mistaken.

Interesting that you are trying this dale. I'm building a blower setup and want to stick with 2x2 on it because three looks too crowded on the Eaton m112. I picked up a really nice 2110 that I need...

Re: 8BA running rich

Re: Master Cylinder Gift Horse
I bought a master cylinder off Ebay years ago that claimed it was a 39 Ford unit or a Hudson unit. When I got it the mount pattern is correct but the shape isnt ford. Looks like it may say 1" on it?
