what year head gasket? i have to replace it any way.

thank you that is what I was assuming but this car has tested me every step of the way!

some pics of the og head and gasket. and this is a spare head that i had machined before i found the chrome one. so now i see the difference. can i do anything to run the chrome head?

it is not my car it's a buddies. but I believe it's a 46-48 block.

so iI am installing a chromed head,t5,langdon hei, and an edmunds intake on a 38 plymouth. I fired it up today for a few seconds and then started adding water. i have water shooting out of the block between the head and block near the water pump. i just realized i did not put rtv on any head bolts. could that be the problem? specifically coming out here.

that would be great!

the carbs are just sitting on in for now.

hey guys long time no talk. i am working on a 1938 plymouth for a buddy it is getting a chrome head edmunds dual carb intake and a t5. i am dropping the driveline off in a few minutes to get shortened. all i have left is the carb linkage. on a 38 plymouth it does not go up and over the head as it does in later cars. so my question is do any of you guys have some later linkage laying around i can buy or can you point me in that direction? i know you guys like pics so her you go.

Would that car be a "long block" or a short block?

well i found the car a new home. the new owner is a good guy and sounds like he is going to actually finish it close to what i would have done. after the new year i will be buying a new project most likely another mopar i will keep you guys posted.

I need to free up some cash and have decided the only way to do that is to sell my mopar. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=752248

I have a set of 50 Plymouth springs. Where are you located?

i will post pics soon i promise!

So i did a ton of reading and questions on here and the hamb. and today I put a dual master behind a gutted stock 49 dodge master. the car in question is my fellow club members. we have a small car club the lucky losers a total of five guys.out of the five three of us have 49-52 mopars.pretty good odds if you ask me...so we mounted a corvette dual behind his master and mounted residual valves. i test drove it an hour a go. other then needing to make a new cover for the new master and bleed the branks again. it went very smooth! so basically I am saying thanks every buddy.
