Plymouthy Adams Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 thanks for the pictures, looks to be a long line of cars.....I just got the news letter from Moss Motoring, surprised to see that I owned 4 of the models listed in the magazine this issue.

Ulu Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 Simple as it comes for an OHV-4. I assembled a well scrubbed 1098cc in Mom’s kitchen, when I was 18. It was a Midget dual carb though, and had a PCV device! Also bored .060” over, but I never bothered to calculate the final displacement. It ate the transmission like a bulldog. Big bites.

Plymouthy Adams Posted January 21, 2022 Report Share Posted January 21, 2022 odds are this was the smooth case tranny and they are not know for beefiness at all. The later ribcase from the Spridgets were the go-to and well, still is. A few other trannies are reported used, Fiat eng/tranny combo....Datsun tranny or eng/tranny and few of the Euro Ford units I have read. The Miata has been mentioned but have never seen a white paper on this improvement. These engines variations are 5 decades old... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
