Just on the off chance anyone know where to find a steering gear for a 46 p-15 coupe..i would rebuild it but the worm and sector are worn out. Thanks for any help. Tony

Was also thinking 5 speed trans..maybe mopar or s-10

wayfarer, The Hemi is a 1954

Thanks for the response...will check them out. Tony

I have a chance to get my hands on an old hemi that has been rebuilt. I want to put in my 46 . Problem is does anyone know of a plate which would let me use my exsiting 3 speed trans as the hemi has no trans with it. I think it would be my only stopping point. I think it would be a cool swap.Any input would be welcome. Thanks

I didn't mill the head... was afraid to boost combustion...I know on older small block chevy's if you redid the head 9 times out of ten the raise in combustion would strain the lower end and it start knocking..lol...just my experience from many years of running chevy's...this is my first old plymouth..but not my first mopar Tony

Thank you for the quick replies...engine back together...running great Tony

Yep ..found head gasket between cyl's blown...ran a straight edge over head appears to be flat... Tony

Well I am sick...my 46 p15 special deluxe seems to dropped #3 and #4 cylinders...don't understand it was running fine..parked it went to start it and it was missing and backfiring...did a tune up thought i'd fouled some plugs or wires broke down...replaced everything ...ran better but still popping...pulled wires off one at a time those two cylinders made no change in the way it ran.....wth...don't know a lot about flatmotors..lol... Tony

Good idea on the heater core

Thanks for the answerbacks...think i'd need to take it out and check all the mechanicals...how does it vent burnt gas fumes...lol

ok ...found it on you tube...it is a gasoline powered heater..don't think i would ever try to use it looks deadly to me...lol...but it looks cool

Hi Fellow P15 and D24 owners ..new to the site ...just picked up a 1946 p15 business coupe..it has a box under the passenger side dash that says southwind on it anyone know what it might be...looks like an aux heater...has a tube that looks like a gas line going through firewall????
