Re: timing with a B cam grind
No, the cover does not need to be changed. I would suggest that you carefully go over the timing procedure, which has been covered many times on this forum (do a search) and you will find the...

Re: Exhaust Manifold
I wonder if one could remove the nuts and washers, there by gaining enough thread to "double nut" the studs in order to remove them. It just might work.

Re: Easy way to lubricate a speedo cable?
I am not sure why no one has suggested "Speedometer Cable Lube". It is a little hard to remove from your hands, but some latex gloves cures that, and it is not affected by cold weather operation.

Is it possible to lubricate the speedometer head?
I have a 1931 Model A with a noisy speedometer head. It functions fine and the noise comes from the head, not the cable. Is it possible to lubricate it or is this a job best left for professionals?
