Re: WTB Good set of rods and pistons
Measured pistons again today. Still come up with 3.738 to 3.736. This T sitting long time, but I did get it running without much difficulty. Runs a little rough with compression of 35lbs on all cylinders. Pistons are cast Iron STD. Thanks for your advice. Don

Re: WTB Good set of rods and pistons
The pistons themselves are OK I believe. It is the rod fit to the wrist pins on two of the four pistons that are bad. The wrist pin has a lot of movement in the piston. I hope I am making clear the problem, I am not a mechanic, but trying.

Re: WTB Good set of rods and pistons
I was of course going to hone the engine and with new (used) pistons would have to bore the engine.

WTB Good set of rods and pistons
Want to freshen 1925 engine with complete valve job and new rings. Now find two pistons are bad, but bearings and crank look good. I don't think engine has ever been apart. If I can find a set 0f rods and pistons it would save me from a complete overhaul. Thanks to all of you!

finishing firewall
Purchase 3/4" oak finished on both sides plywood to make firewall for my speedster build. Think I would stain with cherry and then a good coat of varnish. Does that sound appropriate? If not please give me some advise. Thank you, Don Hanson

These wind wings came off of my 1925 Packard. They are adjustable to fit your application and are nickel plated. While the glass is included, I would get new glass and have cut to your design and liking. $400 and I will pay the shipping. Thanks, ask if any questions
