You’d think for 1000 3000 dollar bills they would have posted a fancier ad.

I was inferring that because stimulus checks went out all the fun stuff is on back order.

Y'all over there at IQ52 land seem bored, keep building engines for nuffin. When you're done with this one I'll send the block & parts over there and you folks can just put this one together for fun. I won't charge you a cent.

What part of Antarctica do you live in and are the penguins friendly?

Stimmys got dealt so yalls gots ta wait!

Stupid expensive if it came out of a first gen CTD. Think I paid a couple few grand and that was 10 years ago.

4 or 5 seasons of 10 seconds passes is probably worth a lifetime of the abuse I will put on it. It would likely see 5-600 ft-lbs, but I'll never have the meats to fully hook it.

I've got no clue, and I'm an authority on nothing.

I was under the impression that the only 5 speed that will fit without major tunnel surgery is an A-855 at $6k with a several year wait for what may end up being a lemon with little to no customer service on warranty repairs/replacement.

I'm hoping to be as lucky with my 67. Of course, like everything else it's a few years down the road at least. It's hard to justify the cost of anything beyond maintenance when I'm trying to save money to buy a house.

I agree about the hot rodding and cutting, but I also understand why many feel some cars just shouldn’t be cut up. I would like to run a GV in my barracuda if I can get away with not having to slice up the tunnel. I could live with a few hammer dings though. Then again, if I pull my carpet up...

passing fad going on 40 years?

PSA, Bruh. That's the best part about this thread!

Actually not as fuggles as I expected.

i wonder how many leaf springs you can buy for a fancy new set of 44’s...:p

And to the OP, your inlet appears to be a NEMA L14-20, which as you stated is two hots and a neutral. That said, if the overcurrent protection device on your generator is higher than 20 amps, I would recommend you upgrade the inlet receptacle and associated wiring to match the generator output...

Correct. Most applications I’ve seen use a transfer switch but the OP’s appears to use an interlock and only allows either the main breaker or the generator backfeed breaker to be on at the same time. This of course, is so you do not backfeed the utility and fry some poor unsuspecting lineman...

Reminds me of how I feel when I step onto an Iowa class battleship and gaze in awe at the fact that all that steel actually floats. Except with this it’s amazement that all that steel actually flies! Looks more like a tank motor, definitely neat, but not as sexy as a Merlin. At least as far as...

what wheels are those?

Bolt pattern complication is where it all started for me, lol. It pretty much forces one to redo both front and rear brakes and apparently in your case, the entire rear axle assembly. It’s a rabbit hole, man. That’s why I’ve resigned myself to spending the $8,000.00 and just buying it bit by...

I may be missing something here, but it looks to me this plan is going to leave you with BBP up front and SBP in the rear. Was this your intention?

wonder how the taxes work if you win?

My choke doesn’t work currently, as stated, my carb isn’t in great shape. It sat for about 10 years before I got the car, it’s a wonder it runs as well as it does but it definitely needs to be gone through.

I'm not sure. All I know is if I don't pump it i'll be cranking to the point of wearing out my battery. Pump the snot out of it and it starts pretty quick.

that tends to result in far more cranking.

I really dont see the problem with kicking the **** out of the throttle and cranking for 5-10 seconds on a 50+ year old car after its been sitting for a week. My carb is in pretty bad shape but even after a rebuild I would expect a good amount of pumps and cranking after a week of sitting.

Today i started the car and counted pumps and cranking time after 1 week of sitting. 15 pumps 5 seconds of cranking with a couple pumps of encouragement when she starts to fire.

Surfing FABO getting about this much done.
