What did you do today that was flathead V8 related?

I finished refurbishing another original April 1936 and later generator cutout. The points were checked for alignment, dressed and gap adjusted. Air gap checked and closure voltage adjusted to 6.5 volts. Painted to resemble the original finish, then assembled with new insulators and hardware.

Moved car back to my garage from storage. My wife will make the seat covers and the engine is getting ready to go back in.

Insulated the fuel line from the pump to the carb on my '35 V8. Also plan to place the Phenolic carb spacer between intake manifold and carb for further cooling. I was on a drive last week and came upon road construction... sat waiting for 10 minutes on the 'go ahead signal' from the flag man when the engine stumbled to a stop. Vapor lock. The backup electric pump solved the issue quickly by refilling the line, but I hope to reduce the need for that in the future with these upgrades,
