Re: Who has the best Tillotson rebuild kit?
Thanks. I'm not after judging marks, I'm just looking for a good-running carb. I'm building a war-era hot rod. My Tudor WILL have a "B" police head and maybe (or maybe not) a Mallory distributor. ...

Wondering if a BB bellhousing would work adapting a T5 to a B block the same way an AA bellhousing works with an A block? I know you would have to use the B oil pan as well...

Re: How much better is a B block than an A?

I'm wanting a simple early pre-war hopped up Sedan that I'm not afraid to drive around town and maybe on some backroads. No speed...

Re: How much better is a B block than an A?
Speaking of Russian/German blocks....How on earth would a common North Carolina grease monkey obtain one of these blocks? And I don't think I need to remind you all that NC grease monkeys don't...

Re: How much better is a B block than an A?
John,
Thanks for the reply! First off, I have no idea of the condition of my block, so questions concerning my use of the B block are purely hypothetical. As I get closer to discerning my...
