Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Great, I have a 34 B motor that has just came back from the rebuilders, but at the moment does not have a body yet!

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! I would love to have a "B" motor for my model a but after the last year of searching i have come up with nothing.

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! I have a diamond block (no cracks?) block, a recently ground, drilled & balanced crank, new inserted rods from Eubanks and trying to figure out what to do next. Have'nt worked out the thrust yet, interested in what others have done.

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Terrific idea. I have a C model 34 ute.
Years ago there used to be a B model forum on one of the Yahoo Groups. Always interested in Canadian A's, B's and C's. Manuel in Oz |
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! You might call Bert's in Denver. I got one of mine there.

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Don't get me wrong, I did read every post, but is not the reason for the disscussion group to move the specific dissussion there?

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Count me in, there is a B in Dad's old 1931 Roadster with a Cyclone head. Are Overhead Valve heads part of this group as well? Bob

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! I have a B in my Worthington tractor.

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! OK, I went there, clicked subscribe, bookmarked the page. Hopefully the group moderator (Vince) will grant admission to a "brother under the pelt." Hey, I like that admissions idea. We all new of a few jerks on the old F-barn, now there's a way to cull the herd?
Anyway, I've got three B engines, all are unfinished works in progress, like just about everything I have. One is a freshly machined .100 over block that I got years ago from Flanegan in Arizona. Remember his "Miracle" engines? It's a miracle that a posse with a rope didn't get to him before he disappeared. Fortunately, the machining dimensions on mine check out, and it is a 'miracle' that he didn't take a shave off the pan rail plane like he did on so many A blocks. I'm waiting to see Rich Falluca's (Antique Engine Rebuilding, Skokie IL) new forged B rods, due this summer. Engine #2 is a very clean complete diamond block non-counterweighted runner with a knock (babbitt?/ haven't looked yet). I whacked it into the wall last week pushing it on a furniture dolly and busted the original front pulley. Maybe that was a good thing? Still pissed. #3 is probably a boat-anchor. I don't know, the deck is badly pitted and the pistons are all stuck. For $100 I couldn't say no. Parts donor, maybe. One will get a Yapp/Riley I have sitting in the box, The other will get one of the two Brumfield "Super" heads (blueprinted, polished 117cc) I had Larry make for me several years ago. I have a small collection of B engine parts; rods, cranks, pans, dizzy's. Probably all junk, we'll see. |
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Vince Looks like you have the fastest growing group on the barn. Rod

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Thanks Vince! I subscribed but am not sure it went through to count me in. I have a B in my '29 Fordor, counter balanced, cross drilled for Dan Price's full oil pressure, pistons measuring .043 with four oil rings, an original Cyclone HC head, V-8 clutch, FS ignition, 3.54 gears and looking to improve some more (B intake with B carb).
My speedster project is a B, counter balanced, cross drilled for Dan Price's full oil pressure, one of Dan Price's last Thomas HC heads, headers, V-8 clutch, FS ignition, V-8 Trans (in the works) with 2 International truck hood body, '29 honey comb radiator, +. It has an Isky cam #590, .390 lift [email protected] duration and I know nothing about how it will perform. Can anyone clue me in on it? Thanks! Tom Sieffert |
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Tom...That's close to an ISKY 400 Jr. It's going to be lope, mid & top end cam, good in a LITE car, run large diameter lifters, B's or larger. Dudley

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! @Dudley,
Thanks! I got it all buttoned up but it has adjustable Chrysler tappets, big 1.680 intake valves, 1.580 exhaust, new springs, bronze guides and steel retainers with intake ports opened up to 1.625 and aluminum cam gear. It will be going in a boattail speedster (no fenders, Model T runabout running boards, no doors, minimal windshield glass, two bucket seats, only top hood section) - should be light enough! I want it to 'shake' at idle! Thanks! Tom |

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Wow, what fun! I run a B in my '31 and enjoy the extra HP. I am needing a new intake if anyone has an extra. Mine has been welded a few too many times by someone.

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! With all these postings here is a social group really necessary?
|
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Joined up. Look forward to talking and reading up on the B with everyone.

I may not have a particular car that a Social Group has been established for, but I still want to know what is being said. When somebody takes a discussion into a splinter group, in order to follow what's being said I have to visit that forum. And for Model A topics, there are 10 or 12 or more different forums!!! :eek: The same problem on a worse scale than the old FordBarn vs. Ahooga when somebody would post one place and not the other. But then it was just two places, now it's a dozen and growing! If Ryan would give us some way of combining a collection of these forums into a single "virtual" forum, I would be pleased. (I have asked for that, BTW.) |
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! Problem is, there is nowhere for the B motor cars to fit in on here.
You have early V8, but no B stuff. Plus I'm sure there will be discusions about hopping up a B and restorers don't want to hear and see that.So a scocial group is a way to solve this problem. |

Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! I'm delighted to find this exclusively model B site but slightly confused about where to post this need (already did so somewhere else not too far away).
I do need both of the B-6042 special bolts that fasten the radius rod bracket to the flywheel housing. Any ideas? Thanks for any thoughts. Fred |
Re: 1932-34 Model B Four Cylinder Group started! I used countersunk allen head bolts until I found the correct ones. Where are you located? Please post or ad to your profile.
