    Same mistake I made

    FYI, I have a pair of never used NOS coils for a 56 Plymouth with a 6 if anyone is interested. I have no idea on application crossovers.

    To protect the glass?

    I'm a bit confused. You do use old window rollers though? Yeah, I've never delved into the rollers yet on my car, but thought maybe the rollers from sliders would owrk. You are right it looks simple.

    I've wondered about sliding glass door rollers (bottom)

    I hear ya and with you on that. That's the problem with the interweb, opinions almost become facts (in appearance) as more and more posters (repliers) chime in lending crediblity to theories. The best advice I have read so far is to keep it stock with the exception of balancing. Thanks guys

    Thanks Don

    Guy on the HAMB is selling what he calls an 85% restored one for $6000. For some reason I was having trouble pasting the link here.

    Thanks Don. I should've left out my off color comment for sure. Street engine. It was just a general question because of the interweb search results I was getting. Sounds like stock with be fine and a balance job is the best approach during a rebuild

    I thought the intial question of, "What are the forum's thoughts on the oiling of our engines" after my brief discription of my search results was pretty plainly stated. If the forum needs more detail before it answers a question, I will gladly comply

    Thanks Andy. I hope Don's not upset, I've been reading his posts on various forums for about 4-5 years now and the guy has a wealth of knowledge and usually seems great. I have a 1953 218 that it looks like someone attempted to rebuild but did something wrong. Vavles are stuck and tons of carbon buildup. I also have a 230 from a 56 plymouth that needs a total rebuild. This project is my "project in waiting" as I am slowly putting my 64 Dart SW back together. I've heard that oiling issues have shortened the life of these engines and so I was doing Due Diligence.

    WOW, something get under your saddle? Have I broken some forum rule or is the forum only for folks in the middle of engine rebuilds or car rebuilds? What doesn't make sence about my question? I've read various articles or posts on the net about improving engine oiling. I'm just looking for opinions. If that pisses you off then I gues you can ignore the thread.

    To be honest Don, I'm just mentally maste****ng. I'm still in the process of gathering parts for the poroject and the engine rebuild is a few years off. I was just surfing the net about rebuilds and quite a few different thoughts were out there so I thought I'd ask.

    I have read different solutions to improving engine oiling from a HP pump with a 1/4 inch shim on the bypass, relieving the crank bearings with an oil groove, restricting the line going to the camshaft (????). What are the forums thoughts on the oiling of oooour engines?
  16. bbbbbb99
    I have a 53 Plymouth tranny, and the column with shifter.
  17. bbbbbb99
    If it's a 37 and you don't want to use it, I may buy it from you depending on price. Thanks
  18. bbbbbb99
    Deathbound, are you going to keep the 16 inch wheels? Any other parts you are removing to upgrade to new tech? Let me know if are and would want to sell anything.
  19. bbbbbb99
    Paul, you have a PM.
  20. bbbbbb99
    Any chance he has any 1936 Dodges or years close to that?

    http://tucson.craigslist.org/pts/3373286748.html If you've never had a Desert SW car you'd be in for a treat. I have not looked at these but thought I'd share. I could possibly help with the purchase and storing/shipping if you need that but can't promise right now. Good luck

    Just an FYI for those wishing to make this swap to auto tranny. I have an original Mopar adapter plate to a powerflight from a 1956 plymouth. From what I understand wiht a very slight modification you can bolt up a 904. I don't see why you couldn't bolt up the overdrive versions either but I have yet to verify this. Didn't mean to the hijack
  23. bbbbbb99
    I've got an original flattie to auto adapter. I was under the assumption that any V8 torqueflight of any year would bolt right up. Charlie????
  24. bbbbbb99
    Nice car but needs work. I have to get it to the house, but I'm excited. Plans are to put the 53 218 in it with the T5 behind it and freshing up the hypoid rear end, disc brakes and not sure what else right now. Any suggestions on modifications etc. will be appreciated. Thanks
  25. bbbbbb99
    I kind want to go the other way on a build some day and use a early 70 ford 4 cylinder and make a roadster body out of a 61 Dodge PU (heavily chopped, channeled and sectioned). Fantasy land tho
