Should I use the small ends or the long ones, or is it just a matter of preference.
I believe the shorter ends are for the '30-31 and the longer are for the '28-29.

Holy cow, that is the cleanest engine I've ever seen.



Thanks for the picture of your prop. I've been wanting to get one for my truck but there are 3 different types and wasn't sure which ones I wanted to get.

My '29 Fordor has a set on the upper rad tank. I read 28/29's came that way from the factory. But the hood doesn't seem to come even close to resting the hood on.
