Billy Austin Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 We had some great weather in the peach state today , so I got the 3 pass project out and fired off the race engine. It's now official all robins have flown north . Quote
Don Coatney Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Is that the long block engine pictured below? Quote
Billy Austin Posted February 27, 2011 Author Report Posted February 27, 2011 Oh no sir.. This is a highly modified D24 engine built by the famous Hodge brothers. ( That's one brother in his the black sedan.) However I do have that spiffy 3-speed tranny in your picture. Quote
1937 Dodge Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 What a beautiful engine. More photos would be appreciated. Quote
Billy Austin Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 I was going to use a dual carb set up, then I got to thinking having two carburetors is like having two wives. One is enough trouble. Quote

aero3113 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Hey Billy, What brand / part number filter are you using in your air cleaner? Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Forget the fuel line, I'm more interested in the hot water spigot tapped into the rear of the head! I suspect that spigot is for turning on/off the water to the heater. Quote
James_Douglas Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Wonder where I have seen that before :-) Quote
James_Douglas Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Billy, Where did you get those plug wires and ends ? James... Quote
Billy Austin Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Hear you're thinking of trekking to VT. You bringing that bad boy???very pretty. Whats the muff on the fuel line??? Greg , Due to the economic down turn , the only way I could do it this summer would be with a good pair of sneakers and a syphon hose. The material on the fuel line is a piece of high temp hydraulic line heat shield. I capped it with shrink tube. Quote
Billy Austin Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Billy, Where did you get those plug wires and ends ?James... James ,I got the Champion WCX 600 ends from Kingsborne.com .They are for vintage Jaguar. I got the wire from Y&Z wiring. Quote
Billy Austin Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Hey Billy,What brand / part number filter are you using in your air cleaner? I've got a K&N filter A077B6-B ... All you have to do is cut the oil bath cap off. Quote

aero3113 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Are you sure that is the correct part number? I just did a search and it didn't come up. Quote
Billy Austin Posted March 3, 2011 Author Report Posted March 3, 2011 Yep.. Thats what they stamped it as part number. A 077B6-B. try dropping the -B . Quote
aero3113 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Still no good, checked on the K&N site:confused: Quote
