Re: Unusual 16 inch wire wheels
I have heard they did this during WWII. Good used 16" tires were easier to get because all rubber was going to the war effort.
I would like to see pictures also.

Re: Carb leak
nkaminar, I bought some of this grease at your suggestion. Great stuff. I use it on carburetor throttle shafts to help prevent leakage.

If you have to replace the shut off valve, ensure you get the new and improved one with a ball valve. Much better design..Snyder's has them....

Good going. I am sure you were close but it wouldn't hurt to still check your timing if the point gap was not the same between the two distributors.

Re: Rear Diff Plug HELP
The plug you link to from Snyder's states in the description "The original style. Can be used to fill and drain. This style of oil plug is 1/2" pipe thread."
Pipe thread is tapered thread.

Re: Too much gear lube
Does your oil look foamy at all? Air in the oil will increase the level.
I was having an issue with 600W foaming in my transmission. I switched to Lucas 85w-150. Problem solved.
