  1. Hi all, just found a Barrett model B-385 brake drum eccentricity gauge set. Not sure what it's for but hoping to use it on my D-24 looks like it will work. Any know what size the front spindles are thanks
  2. Ok thanks, Got all winter to ponder this. Anyone near St Paul Mn have a 230 Flathead with a 23.5 in head?
  3. Thanks for the reply, The car is in storage for the winter, have been looking for a 23in head motor but came across 2 - 25 in motors and wondering what my options are. Would it make a difference if it is a fluid drive or a stick? Was hoping to pull out - drop in, and be that easy.. ha ha But would consider the 25 in if its not a big headache..
  4. Hi all, looking to swap out a 230 flathead 6 with a 23 in head, smokes a lot ! Found a 241 spitfire out of a 1940 Chrysler but its got a 25 in head. Will this fit into a 1947 dodge D-24 it looks tight?
  5. Ok have you checked your rubber brake lines. Hold your hand on one and Have someone step on the Brakes you will feel the hose Expand if they are old and wore Out.that will explain you having to pump The brakes.
  6. Loosen bolts on the distributor, have someone turn the car over and turn the distributor counterclockwise your timing is just off.
  7. Just put one in a 47 dodge, had the same problem. All you have to do Is retard the distributor. Don't know why I waited 15 years to do it! Car runs great
