If you have the ability and tools to adjust the originals they are fine. Had adjustables in my 8BA since 1986. Have never have had a problem.

Re: Anyone else heard or know?
Oh yeah; according to the current Ford commercials, you can use your EV to power your house during an outage.

Re: Electric fan over a belted fan
Yeah. Ralph is my hero. Wish we had more like him. No. Wait. We do! I drove a Corvair and a Pinto for years and somehow managed to survive.

Re: 8BA 12 V Starter?
Used the coils from a 1956 - 1962 12V starter. Bolted in and has worked perfectly for many years. I did change to the new style "Bendix". No broken springs to deal with.
