I have a complete Holley vaporizer. Threads are good; and a straight edge runs true on exhaust ports. Of course it will have to be gone thru with new gaskets. 125.00 plus shipping IMG_20210729_123521736.jpg IMG_20210729_121553619.jpg IMG_20210729_121604902.jpg IMG_20210729_122256574.jpg IMG_20210729_122403530_HDR.jpg

Anyone have the pattern/drawings for a lower firewall for a '26-'27?
I'd like to deflect some of that summer heat.

Last post

I just had this thought....

My '23 is a lot cooler to drive than my '26. The only difference between the two is one has a rubber floor mat on top of the floor boards.

That at least is the beginning of why one car is so much warmer than the other.

Should I go with champion and is it worth the extra money?

Lift the dots are usual in that application. You can even get double stack male fittings so side curtains can be fitted as well as the top sides. I have limited sticks in my stash if you can tell me what you require. Otherwise Dalys in Royal Park, Adelaide, can usually supply them.

Of course, I don't want to modify the original brass cap, and even a used one is too expensive because of shipping cost, so I got the idea to 3D print one, including the thread, in Nylon, with a little...

Last post

The petrol tank cap is a fairly standard size and thread. A Fordson tractor cap fits, either the radiator cap or the fuel tank cap. A more ready source is the bung in a 200 litre fuel/chemical drum. Nowadays these are usually diecast, so any fitting to the bung would need to be bolt-in rather than welded/soldered.

Today I picked up my engine after a transmission rebuild. As proof of life the rebuilder set it up on a Dyno and ran it for me, first with a Holley NH, then with my Holley G. I have a NH at home in a box that I've never gotten around to installing on the engine. Based upon the results, I think I will now :D

Last post

I seriously doubt an NH will make 5hp difference, but a dyno test could prove me wrong. I picked up just over two HP when i went from a standard NH to a straight through NH on a 14-15 high volume cast iron intake manifold. The extra 5 hp came when a Z head was fitted. So many variables in any combination!

I just almost finished restoring my 3rd TT. I bought the chassis on a Bill of Sale and am now preparing to get a Title. The engine serial number is 10,955,119 and the old MTFCA encyclopedia states its a December 1924 engine from Highland Park. I understand that makes it a 1925 model.

Here's an interesting tire pump. The outside of the body pulls up and down and the inside stays put to the foot holds when pumping. Made by the HOLSTEIN MFG CO., RICHLAND PA. It's in excellent shape and will need a new leather pump washer to work along with a hose kit. Asking $75 plus postage.

In 1932 we moved to Minneapolis and my father joined the local school system. When I was 6 he bought be a small two wheeled bike, which I still have. At the age of 14 I bought my 1910 Model T...

That is awesome! Darel, from your picture you don't look a day past 60! I've got 25 years to go for that milestone, God willing. Hope you have a great day with family and T friends. :D

Looking at the mount on this horn. Why does it have a recessed cup? Is it supposed to sit on a spring?

Last post

You are missing the rest of the bracket assembly.

That particular set-up has an additional bracket that screws into the door sill. Then, you attach the horn to the permanent bracket on the sill with a single bolt and nut or wing nut.

It's designed that way to prevent theft. It allows you to easily detach the horn and take it with you, if so...

I have a New Day timer made by Tip-Top Timers of Spokane Valley, Washington. In the past two and a half years I've put 5400 + miles on the cap and brush. I thought it might be helpful to others to show what the timer cap and brush looks like after that use.

Wear on the cap contacts is minimal and although the brush is slightly worn, there is no...

Last post

In 2019 I replaced the timer with a New Day on my 26 touring. When I started her up, the New Day was doing the hula, so I ordered two brass shields and cut out the centers for the modern oil seal, The shields acted as a washers that hold the timer away from the brush keeping it from doing the hula, problem solved.
