    Hello all, Looking for some help with my 1928 Chrysler 52. Just did a compression test and Im getting little to no pressure. Not even sure what it should be. PO told me he put a new head gasket on so Im not sure if it needs to be redone. Other then repalcing the head gasket again maybe Im doing something wrong.

    Hello All !!! Rich all is good ! . Unfortunately I got really sick and spent a great deal of time layed up. Just getting back on my feet. In my down time I found new set of rods, valve, timing chain etc. Piston not so much luck. Looks like I may need to have them manufactured.

    Hello all, Still kinda of a newbe here....I just pickup a 1931 Desoto SA solid car but the engine needs rebuilding. The prior owner tore it down and it has at least 4 bad pistons.I'm finding replacement pistons are not that easy to come by. I would like to keep it as close to stock as possible. I the head has silverdome and SA 320030-1 on it. Not sure what direction to go if I can not find replacement pistons and rings.Have not been able to cross them either. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hello all, I lost the ignition coil nut that threads into the coil. I've searched E-bay and pretty much everywhere but have not been able to find one. I thought just putting a terminal and boot would work..... No spark Any suggestions or help would be appreciated ! Thanks

    Thanks for the reply !Cranks after stalling....looking down carb still getting a good shot of fuel. After cooling for a few hours starts right up. It's is running a little rough at idle but smooths when given gas. None of the fuel lines are near manifold etc. Not sure what would cause "vapor" lock. I have a replacement coil maybe I swap it out and see what happens. Thanks for your help ! JM
