A few years ago I think I got the name and number of a gentleman that rebuilds clutch plates and discs on this site. Tied to search but couldn’t find it. You shop him your parts and he returns them back refurbished. Does anybody know of this guy or someone else? TIA
Surprised there aren’t any replies yet. I want the same set up on a 40 Chrysler I’m turning into a retro-rod. You are probably going to hear you should stay with the suspension God gave it. As it is a pretty good setup From back in the day. I’m probably just going to do a disc brake conversion for the front and would love a four-link in rear.
I thought I’ve read that adjusting timing is best by using a vacuum gauge. Need to use the port on the intake manifold. That worked for me on my ‘40 rebuild.
I just installed the hub/nut on my crank by heating the nut in oven at 450 degrees. Went on real easy with very light taps with hammer and wood. Machine shop trick.
I will find out. Unfortunately, I have to open it up. Before I do I will stop by his shop, show him the part and ask if he remembers that he didn’t have it.
I need help indentifying this 2” long copper oiling tube. Apparently I didn’t give this to the machine shop when they assembled my rebuilt 1940 Chrysler 241flathead six. I’m thinking it might belong behind timing chain cover. I guess this is what can happen when 5+ months pass after you disassemble an engine.
Thanks
Sacrificed a few dimes and used a baling wire turnbuckle to install the clutch pedal spring on steroids. Was successful, but it was work. That’s one strong spring...... This is on my 40 Windsor.
