46 pickup flathead headers?
What headers will fit a flathead in a '46 pickup? I only see them listed for '48-'52. Will they work or are they not even close? Any other recommendations?

Master Cylinder which port is which
I'm putting a '69 Mustang drum/drum master cylinder in my '46 pickup. Does it matter which port goes to the front or rear since both reservoirs are the same size?

NP435 to flathead?
I've got an NP435 transmission with a Borg Warner R10 overdrive on it that I'd like to swap into my truck. Is there an easy way to get this bolted up to the flathead?

Re: What brakes are these?
Great info. I wasn't aware that was all available on Raybestos' website. As near as I can tell, the axle is a '58 with these brakes stuck on it. The drums clearly don't match the rest so I wouldn't...

What brakes are these?
Hoping someone can help ID these brakes. They're on a '58 9 inch. I'm assuming the drums are incorrect. There is a 1/4" spacer between the hub face and drum. Without the spacer the drum rubs on the...

Re: 52 Ford Pickup
Wrong forum, but yes you can. Positive to positive, negative to negative, and make sure the two vehicles are not touching. Unhook the cables immediately after starting.
