I asked the same question to Earl Egerton and his reply was. Yes copper can erode aluminum, but as long as you use antifreeze, it should be fine as I believe there is a substance in it that neutralizes the chemical reaction between the two. Earl ​

My future shifter for my 37 Dodge Biz Coupe

Have no idea what parts are worth for 37 d5 but if the sway bar and links are in GOOD shape I would be interested

Thanks for the feed back and to answer Chet's question I am currently rebuilding the 230 that I installed back in the early sixties. Although there a few minor improvements such as Edgy's reground cam, intake manifold, and cylinder head.

As both of my sway bar links are rusted thru is there a need for a sway bar with the setup I have now? Or should I try to find some kind of replacement? Thanks in advance for any input.

Just make a crossbar and coat it or put a piece of heater hose over it. my 37 coupe has never had a hold down since I have owed it

Good job, nice work area and great looking Harley. Just can not beat old things.

Looks like the same tank I have from Tanks Inc. Has a 5 hole rubber gasket for the sender and 2 rubber grommets for the pickup and the vent.

A good source for repair in the Midwest

Bill, Thanks for the reply and the information that you provided.

I was at a salvage yard today an came across a Dodge truck with a 25” engine with a serial # of TX342. Checked the serial # on the web page but cannot find any TX #. Any help would be appreciated.

Jim, as long as the bores and pistons specs are the same and the cap and rod are matched it does not matter whether you put them back in the hole they came out of or in order. If the rods were not numbered it would not be an issue. Remember it is a Ford. Or put them back in the same way and just renumber them.

Try the Plymouth Doctor and see if he has any truck tags. plymouthdoctor@aol.com 517-625-PLYM (7596

Back in the 60's when I blew the stock transmission in my 37 Dodge biz coupe I replaced it with a later trans and a Drag fast floor shifter. I think the Co went under but you might Google it and see.

Received this reply from Reds Headers this morning looks like they are not out of business. We are currently out of production on the Plymouth flathead headers. Due to manpower problems, we do not anticipate being back in production for several months. When the headers are available they sell for $255.00 a pair. Jim Red’s

Sorry to disappoint you but the 855 wheel will NOT! fit a "C"

While the weather is cold you might want to do some investigating into available parts that will be needed for the repower. One main part would be a clutch style flywheel as the converter wheel is different. A couple of places that deal with older engines in this area are Sharf and Co. (Springfield IL) and Engine rebuilders in DesMoines IA

Not only NO but H%%% no you cannot bolt up the new style adaptor to the Old C160,175,180 etc. The old C is a completely different, and has a larger block casting and bolt pattern. These engines were used in dump trucks, mixers, graders, loaders, and other uses. The biggest drawback would be parts availability. The predecessor to this engine was the J series and in 1952 Cummins modified one and won the pole position in the 1952 at the Indy 500. The car did not finish because the turbocharger suckedup the rubber residue off the track and plugged the intake. Just a little history. Have you had the engine running yet?

According to your photo of the fuel pump it is a PTR (P= pressure T= timed and R= regulated) an replaced the old double disk system. If you feel on the back side of the main housing there will be a hex headed cap(15/16"wrench) which houses the pressure regulator. The simplest way to tell a R pump there will be a return line on the top of the main housing Yes it is a automotive pump which was replaced by the PTG (Pressure Timed Governed)pump. The heads cracked due to over heating(coolant lose, loose belts) or over fueling. Good luck with your project and keep us updated.

According to the information you have from the tag the engine was built in 65 and the esn is 126816 and has a PTR fuel system. These engine were great in the construction field but not so much so on the automotive side. They were know for cranking heads. I think you would be better off with a 5.9 or an 8.3 as far as the spark plug/glow plug it was a cold starting aid. there was a primer pump in the cab which sprayed fuel on the hot glow plug and actually burned in the intake to heat the incoming air. The only thing Cummins might be able to find for you is the build record.
