FL300 Motorcraft and it's cross references is the shorty oil filter I used under the Hookers on the Swinger instead of the 90° adapter. The FL300 is only 4" tall rather than the 5.2" it's taller brothers are like LF1 or PH8A.
EDIT ... one of the fitments Motorcraft lists is '73 340 Dustpan :rolleyes:

Wix 51348 fits, its the small diameter short one. Used in many applications. I dont have room in the Fargo for a real filter. That being said, its about the same size that an LS uses. I change oil often enough i dont worry about it.
 
I posted a photo of my Swinger on A Body Mopars group on Facebook 4 hours ago. 554 thumbs up so far.
 
The lil hoe is out of shop. I pulled carb and checked the main jet. In my “profeddional” opinion its too small. My biggest mini drill bit was .039 so i did the right thing and drilled it out. While i was digging around the carb, i decided to rework the kindergardener designed choke linkage. Starts better,runs better and the hydraulics are better. Tucked it away, ready to work this summer.
Edit, forgot to attatch photo

Christmas 2.0 this weekend. Sadly my brother is sick, so he and his wife are staying down in Illinois, but my “brain surgeon” sister, her husband, and their daughter are coming up from Rochester for the weekend.

And I’m already tired.

That nail grinder might work on my toe nails.

Nothing like spoiling kids. Love it...
 
(LOL!) Well, her parents already do a pretty good job of that, but she (the 7 year old niece) has no grandparents, so we’ve kinda usurped that role come Christmastime.
I'm a pro at grand kids and I got it figured out. They will always love ya when you feed them candy just before they go home.
Works great because by the time they get home they will be bouncing off the walls but not at my house. :lol:
 

there will be a live feed about 5 minutes before launch which may include the booster returning to the landing pad
 
My Brat just reminded me that the youngest Granbrat's birthday is next Friday while we spoke on the phone. "I better get a card in the mail for her." Then I hear the little one "Put a couple Franklins in it!" Apparently she had her phone on conference call :lol:
Trying to remember all the grandkids birthday is hard
 
So, Lynda's youngest son Bin stayed overnight with us at my house. He is 10 years old and a cute kid and well behaved. I'm impressed. Then we went to breakfast and now we are at the cafe. I'm getting a lot of strange looks. LOL..kkkkkk
