    I bought two airtex pumps from rock auto the one I put on my 52 works great with no issues the other I put on my 47 had diaphragm issues right out of the box I would try to find a rebuild kit for the ac... as others have said I would not put weld on the arm

    it does sound like the crank position sensor is going bad it controls the timing rpm ect. I think I would try that before I spend 1800+ on a new ecm a new cps is about $40 just make sure you use a mopar or Cummins one just went through basically the same thing with a jeep liberty it threw codes for ecm random misfire vac leak I got the cps at advanced auto it still ran like crap and threw same codes put the mopar brand cps in it runs great and no codes again this is just my two cents best of luck hope you get it figured out

    on my 52 I unhooked the battery wire from the regulator and spliced on a section of wire to the alternator may not be the correct way to do it but it has been this way over 5 years and works as it should as does the ammeter I used 48 pulleys on my engine so I am running the wide belt I used the wide pulley from my generator with no issues so far

    yes you can get a 6 volt positive ground alternator they are usually a gm type I bought a 6 volt positive ground 1 wire off a guy on eBay about 5 years ago I used the factory generator brackets with very little fab work I have had no issues with it so far I also bought a kit off the same guy so if I had any issues I could repair it I have to look before I go to work may have his contact info with the kit if I do I will pass it on to you I am sure many others here have also done this swap.. 1 800 962 5745 is the number I have can't hurt to give them a call and inquire about it best of luck ...Dan

    if it idles fine and backfires or pops under load I would bet the condenser is bad

    I have a .040 piston that looks just like that. previous owner rebuilt the engine I bought it for a spare did a compression check and test fired it on the floor had great oil pressure so I put it in my car ran great for about two weeks someone forgot a connecting rod nut and it came apart and jammed the piston in to the head

    I think they kind of look like 1957 dodge royal lancer that would be my guess
  18. halffast52

    I recently purchased a p-15 frame for my 48 biz coupe it has a 39 Plymouth truck engine in it the seller said it was seized I pulled the starter off it and the starter drive was stuck out used a pry bar on the flywheel and she turns easy I know I just got lucky.. it doesn't happen a lot but sometimes when you try to start them with 12 volts the starter drive jumps the pins that has only happened once on our Cranbrook. the 51 club coupe has never done it and runs 12 volts with the 6 volt starter not saying you will get that lucky but while you soak the cylinders you could pull the starter and see if it will turn by the flywheel good luck with it

    I get asked what year my old chevy is quite often was at a cruise one night for a local food bank and listened to a guy tell his buddy it was a 50 ford because of the flathead then they wanted to know who cut it down when I told them Plymouth did in 1952 they said oh.... well its still cool looking. and those old timers who know what it is always have a story about one my biz coupe and cranbrook were the only 50's mopars running around this area for a while but they are starting to pop up now because most cant afford a 50's chevy or ford and I also get the what's it worth question I do my best to try to educate them
