Re: question

I guess I should explain. The way Ryan talked about Charlie NY, and anybody who agreed with him, was disgraceful! I don't want to support, in anyway, somebody like that! Ryan Cochran is a...

Re: Charlie N.Y. Band for life from Ford Barn

51 MERC,
Please explain why that post doesn't belong. I too think we should be told of offenses.

Re: Identification help for Ford rearend

It's probably a Dana 41. I think that is what Ford used in the first couple years of production of the F series trucks. I have a '48 that has a Dana 44 axle but I'm shur it has been changed. Looks...

Re: Engine temp rises when I get to cruise speed

Beware of aftermarket fans and shrouds. I bought a '51 Ford that had a aftermarket fan and shroud plus air. The air didn't work. I removed the air and left the fan and shroud thinking they would help...

Re: What headers would I use for duals?

Those manifolds are pretty restrictive. They would last a long time! I like headers and the ones I'm talking about have lasted a long time.

Re: What headers would I use for duals?

Try a set of TRI Y 1965 Mustang headers. I have used them on Ranger swaps. They bolt right up no problems. And they are cheap!

Re: Edelbrock manifold

I had those little chrome pots on it. When I made and installed that big air cleaner I could tell a difference in performance. I think it's running a little lean so I'm going to change jet sizes.

Re: '49 gauge anomalies 2 different sets but opposite behavior

They are working correct. It's called fail safe. If sending unit fails temp. will read hot and oil will read 0 so as to get your attention.

Re: High hp flathead build posted 20 hrs ago

As to those little chrome air cleaners, I replaced mine with a homemade air cleaner and noticed a lean condition afterwards. Haven't fixed it yet. Will have to go up a few jet sizes.

Re: Changing Intakes and Carb

I agree with Sal as I'm running a 1.12 on a 302 with no problems. I was told that a 1.12 was only 600 CFM. Is that true Sal?

Re: 1961 FE exaust manifolds and casting numbers.

The head should be resurfaced. You might get away with using a large flat file to clean the head surface, but, the head must be flat and clean. Do NOT use a gasket between head and manifold.
