I recently bought a new fuel pump for Dad's 54 International. It looks very similar to our Mopar ones and the pivot pin has some clear glue looking stuff on each end. Doesn't look too trustworthy

Start watching the car and truck guys that are swapping in modern gear. A 3.90 should be easily found with a 3.73 a little harder but around
-
Looks like the closer one might be a Fargo

What kinda Chrysler? Dad had a 55 New Yorker deluxe. It could be a really neat car if someone put some time into it. Hemi auto AC PS PB power windows and seat. Of course most of that doesn't work! I need to figure out the parking brake so at least it's driveable.
-
The newer cars have 2 wheel cylinders on the fronts so you get the joy of doing 6 bleeders! I've always done the lower first and then the upper.

Who/what are you copying and where is mine ???
-
One of these things is not like the others
-
I believe it did evolve - into the first hemi v8s of the early 50s. If I remember my reading on this correctly this wasn't a test like when the flathead was working on being replaced by the slant 6 but rather development of the hemi tech.
-
When I did mine I just mimicked what the OEM frame had but moved up like an inch.
-
Interesting it appears to have added signal lights with the passenger side mounted on the fender with the drivers side on the upper grill
-
The other thing to try is pouring a bottle of water on the fuel pump to cool it back off
-
And if it is ignition related putting on an electric fuel pump will just hide it until something breaks worse. There are tests for the coil and maybe take a look at your timing etc

First of all good job on the truck you're ahead of me on mine. I got distracted and went for a 47 Dodge truck that was easier ..... There are some mopars that have the brake light switch further downstream in the system usually at a T. I think Dad's 54 Plymouth is like that.
-
Metro is local for me and I know we used them some for Dad's 51 resto. Now what specifically I don't recall...that was the late 90s!!

Maybe if id noticed the attachment i would have seen the date. Maybe ...
