Let me guess it has a Sh-- Box Chepy in it. Not Cool

After all the therapy and you are up and running you will wonder why you waited so long as I did. This was the best thing I ever did. I have to take a different approach to things I do know but the pain I endured is completely gone. Isn't modern medicine GREAT. You will be happy you finally did this. Buy the way I had both of mine done at once.

I have Rustyhope on my 37 Dodge and could not be happier with his product!

My first car 37 Dodge Biz coupe and a 2000 Dodge Dakota Sport with 29000 miles(has never seen a snow flake) and my 76 Ford F250 with a 5.9 Cummins engine

I do not know why you would need to line bore a 1937 block if the bearings looked normal and all the crank needed was a regrind. Put the under size bearings in an move on. The only time we line bored was when there was a failure Just my option

I wrapped the area to be cut with tape and used my tree loppers.

I have had a Laycock J type mid mount OD in my 1976 Ford F250 with a 5.9 Cummins diesel,BW T19 trans and 3:73 rear since the early 90’s. I used it to pull a flat bed goose neck with a 6000lb antique JD pulling tractor and never had any trouble splitting the lower gears.

Had not seen the first part of this commercial before (bicycle part) way COOL.

Ranger, Thanks for the compliment. The oil filter is a Fram PB50 bypass filter on a Wix 24755 filter head. The big city of Blue Grass is 15 miles south of Davenport, Ia

Here are the stats on the 50 Dodge It was Hemi powered.

Went to the Elks Club car show on Sunday and saw what I thought was a 50 Merc but turned out to be a 50 Dodge Wayfarer

I bought my first car in 1962 from my neighbor’s grandmother a 1937 D5 Dodge coupe. I still have it and put it back on the road in 2016 with several new technology features after setting for 43 years.

A file or rethreading die.

This was my home made pre-oiler that I used. Worked great and showed 20 psi on the gauge. (oil filter was pre filled)

Looks like he was still alive and well in "69"

Tim, I enjoy reading your knowledgeable input and your blogs, but Earl makes both short and long heads. Thanks Cast Finned Aluminum cylinder head.docx

Casper, great video and very informative. Thanks for sharing.

Back in the early sixties when I was young and dumb I had a co-worker bore my replacement 230 cu“engine .080 oversize to perk it up. I than took the cylinder head to the local machine shop to have it milled .060 and discussed what was done to the block. He checked his piston books and said there were no .080 over pistons available at that time. He researched further and found if the bore was .0825 we could use .020 oversize Kaiser pistons as the wrist pin center was the same. Long story short, assembled engine installed,drove about a week and noticed steam from breather. Pulled dipstick and found it milky, pulled pan and found coolant coming down #6 cyl.(pin hole) Removed engine an had #6 sleeved & bored. Assembled and installed. I drove car for over 35 thousand miles before parking it in 1971. Last year I rebuilt the motor and added some Eggy modification and once again the car is back on the road.

What is the engine # of the D5?

On my 37 Dodge D5 project I have installed a CC4749 champion radiator and a Flex a Lite pusher fan. So with these old cars things can be made to fit. Just my opinion.

3/8" pipe and do not forget to put sealant on it.
