I used to still have a few of those. I will have to look to see if any are available.

Count me in.

The cam gears with the slot are nearly impossible to change timing with. Your best recourse is using a timing set with the multi keyed crank gear or a cam gear without the slot (so you can use the offset bushing kits.

If for mounting 2bbl carbs, that linkage would not work.

Would be nice if we could get some Argentine 906 blocks here in the US.

No worries to anyone. The good news is that I will be working on an improved design for the one barrel spacer. I hope to get input from Slant Six Dan and others. I do try to make a good product, but I apparently do not know a lot of the Slant Six nuances (I blame my big block fetish). Thanks...

I gave him a total refund and told him to keep the spacer as I couldn't sell it after he modified it. For the record, I was never contacted about any issues with the spacer. Just a message from ebay that a return/refund was requested. I have fit this specifically on a 65 slant six, a 73 slant...

When I made my 2 into 1 pipe assembly for my Clifford shorties, I bought some band clamps and cut holes in the bands. I could securely clamp the pies in place but still reposition them as needed. Once I got things positioned, I could tack weld them and then move on to the next section. When...

I will look into that. The biggest problem with that would be preventing leaks from oil collecting in the lower edge of the valve cover.

Thanks for the kind words, Rob. I appreciate all the feedback I get as it helps to improve the products. I am always looking to add new items to the inventory. I am actually working on a spacer/adapter for the later style hydro heads. One that will let the early style valve covers fit the...

Thanks Dan, now I don't have to look. :D

I'd need to check, but I think Doug Dutra's Slant Six book may have the info.

Of those two holes, the front hole is a single lift point to balance the engine only. The rear hole is a single lift point to balance the engine/trans together.

There was a Plymouth dealer in Johnstown PA that, in the 60/70's, used to put brand new GM and Ford cars on their used car lot. I always found that amusing, but I am sure it was just likely a sales gimmick.

I did the same exact thing on my engine. My setup differs only slightly from yours. Next I do it, I will mount my filter to the bell housing flange similar to yours.
