I used this adapter when I did the scarebird disc brake conversion Motive pressure bleeder adapter

those are champion 511 and are non resistor, champion 562 are the resistor type if you want those. Rockautoparts.com says autolite 295 are the "oe style"

Cars pull to the least positive caster and /or most positive camber. you can offset camber and/or caster to counter the pull. But I would look at simple things you can do 1st, like cross rotate the front tires (if they are not directional) and see if it pulls left. Best of luck

So the kid was buggin me to try and start the Plymouth this weekend, and i was like "Why not?" So it runs a little rough because of the bad gas but it smoothed out after a while and yes there is a crack in the exhaust manifold at #6 cylinder but it was fun to hear it puttering along. Mostly what you see is Langdon's stove bolt carb and an HEI distributor set up on it. Is there a way to make it play on the page or ya'll seeing it on the page without clicking the link? https://youtu.be/TjAAAGXmos0

Does anyone have a good diagram and part number that is readily available for doing a 12v conversion and rewiring the horn relay. i bought a new on but it has 3 terminals on it as apposed to the 5 or so on the 6v. oh and It is a 1949 Plymouth deluxe. Thanks in advance

I am usually just a lurker but paid close attention to Don's posts and advice. I was wondering why I hadn't seen him post up in a while also. My condolences to all.

oh and for some info i found these leads for the distributor that was close to the leads in mine. the wire is bare but i will use some liquid tape to seal the wires up. i picked them up at the local United Auto Parts store in Fredericksburg. hope this helps anyone looking for the leads. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000G017FG?ref_=pfb_32j134nn0aa60gkfinhhiblakfi6&tag=hydfbook0e-20&ascsubtag=pfb-P01-V01-O3-T1-LO-4DCJUB

dont you need a 12v system for pertronix? <a href="http://s4.photobucket.com/user/glopez9140/media/1949%20plymouth/20171029_160512.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y124/glopez9140/1949%20plymouth/20171029_160512.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo 20171029_160512.jpg"/></a> they list them on www.oldmoparts.com for $45, i need the vacuum advance as well too. i'll try that but when i had it our of the block it didn't seem to have any side to side play in the shaft is this the HEI upgrade? or can you use the slant distributor in the flatty with some mods? Thank you all for the posts. as frustrating as it is to work on it, i do enjoy showing it.
