Re: speed parts on the banger
My opinion:
Forget the finned bling. Honor the car. Keep it real. |

Re: speed parts on the banger
I believe those tires were made relatively recently, but that's just nit picking. That is a beautiful coupe!

Here's an original pre war CRAGAR head and a Stromberg-Bendix downdraft available in 1931.

Re: speed parts on the banger
Thanks for the compliments! And yes, those tires are newer! LOL Everything on the car is bolt on, can go back to stock very easily. I do have a completely stock 31 A pickup that will never be modified. I also drive the snot out of that coupe, way more fun than any vehicle I own. I have had the die hard restorers compliment the way I have done that car. I feel as though I have respected the car.

Some good pre-war hot rod photos and a good old song to go with them. Last edited by rmak; 03-29-2011 at 09:53 PM. |

Re: speed parts on the banger
When you get to the point where your A can cruise 90, consider getting some fins from a
'59 Caddy and welding them to the rear fenders. |

Re: speed parts on the banger
Both my 30 coupe & 31 s/w sedan run 33 B engines & Columbia OD,s.The coupe has a 5.9 BF head & the sedan will have a 5.5 head.Also using Teds Floaters for added stopping power.Never drilled a single hole in the mods ,so it could be changed back to stock in a week-end,but not as long as I own the cars.Its nice to be able to cruise at 60 on busy hiways at low rpm with less change of getting rear ended.

Re: speed parts on the banger
Try one of these; single carb, but it's 2-barrel. And it's completely bolt-on.

Seriously, the first thing you need to decide is what do you want from your Model A? This site was designed by it's owner to lean way over to the restoration side and his site HAMB is designed for the modified side.

On a stock engine you would do best with the 81's. Even better is use 3 bolt to 2 bolt adapters and use the single throat Holley's from a Ford 6. |
