There wasn’t spit for Model T parts but I was able to pick up a complete Sioux valve grinder kit and resurfacer machine with all the stones and pilots for $225.00. So it was a good trip!

Re: Transmission 1927 pickup questions
The point is, there were drums that had entirely different dimensions where' they had flanged bushings, later did not. Early drums require modification or other specific alteration to fit all 3 washers, as they in fact did NOT have 3 washers as designed. This is a caveat to your statement that tran...

The transmission washer, if the transmission fits together well without the other 2 washers, then you will not need them.

Re: High Compression Pistons
Thanks John and Ricky.
I would like to be able to climb most hills in high gear, but would prefer the original cast iron head. If the HC head adds a huge improvement in torque over pop up pistons I would go that rout tho.
