Re: Interesting bore dimensions

The Hobby Machinist is a great forum for beginners. No flaming for newbie questions like on some of the other forums. Lots of antique machines. Easy to get sucked in.

Re: Interesting bore dimensions

NICE lathe! Now you'll be asking about grinding HSS blanks. I tried a few times and finally bought insert type but still HSS. Enjoy your new toy.

Re: 50 f2 rims

The 8' Express Bed is the same from 1948- 1952 and on both the F2 and F3. The F2 had rear shocks and typically not on the F3.

I put a very straight and rust free 1948 F2 Express Bed on my 52 F3....

Re: PCV valve for my H six ?

It's genetic, I have it too. Gotta always be tinkering on something. The distributor looks good.

Re: Hot 33

It's been at least 12 years since I did an engine swap in my Toyota so maybe the coolant has changed?

I found out when I put a 3.4 V6 from a 4Runner into my 88 pickup. I was blasted on the forums...

Re: Hot 33

I thought Toyota coolant does not protect copper or brass. Unless there are different types of pink and red?

Re: First On Race Day

I like it.

I saw a guy at the Lake with an old Biesemeyer boat with a Huey helicopter engine in it hooked up to a V-drive. Also crazy but I liked it too.

And another guy at the same lake with...

Re: Two spoke, three spoke, or four spoke wheel?

Gary, that emblem looks like it was made that way. The capitol F almost looks like a T. Perfect balance between the Toyota and Ford. Just like the truck. VERY cool.

Re: 59AB - Headers vs stock exhaust manifolds?

What are "W Type" headers? I googled it and got nothing. I can imagine a W configuration but do you have any pics?

Just curious as my only Flathead is in my F3 and stock.
