So, to continue with my list of modifications to the '51 to bring it up to parade duty, I installed an electric fan the other day. I also removed...
Is that draft tube like the one you have, Nate? Is the OEM one better than the system I "engineered"? :p
Flashlight- You don't have to run the air intake to your air filter. Just as long as the air that is coming into the crankcase is filtered in some...
Martinius- You probably won't be able to find a combo, you will probably have to buy all of the parts a la carte. As far as the parts for the...
Flashlight- The valve cover is the non-vented variety. All fresh air is coming in through the old draft tube. That's why I inserted the gauze...
Flashlight- My main concern is about idling. I live practically in town, so my daily commute never allows me over 35. Also, I am planning several...

Andy- I didn't pick up the rear end. A few years ago, maybe, but now it is too big of a project for me. I have a family that demands most of my...
My Opinion... I prefer 10W-30 in either dino or synthetic blend. I definitely say detergent oil, if you have an oil filter. If you don't run an...
I will certainly check the belt. The truck normally doesn't give me problems, in normal everyday driving, anyway. Oh yeah...I have that truck...
...until I make some more changes. I tried a parade today. Truck tuned, in tip top shape (mechanically, any way). The truck was loaded, probably...
Thanks for the kind words!!! BLUEMEANIE- probably not my truck. I've only had mine as far east as Bourbon. I keep it mostly between Rolla and...
No, Bob, mine has the shifter. Sorry... :)
Ken-I can only hope it was a pole, or shed door or something like that. I hope it wasn't another vehicle. :o I think that crease is more of an...
