Re: Lowering the front of my '49 coupe

I did the 1" A arm spacer on a '51 Merc a long time ago. Also had lowering blocks. Worked well for me. Had the car for 10 yrs and no problems.

Re: 1941 ford truck serial/vin number

I would say use what came with it or you will have a big headache. You could always cancel the auction because of the discreptancy.

Re: intake manifold

Starting in the center and working your way out in a crisscross fashion, tighten all of the intake manifold bolts to 20-25 ft/lbs. Per Edelbrock.
