Hi guys,
Thanks for that idea Bill. I looked into the electric pumps after your post and that seems like a pretty elegant solution. I later found that the alternator is actually a bigger issue here since the bulkhead is angled towards the rear and the alternator protrudes quite a bit. How did you sort out that situation?
It's been quite a while since my last post and to be honest I haven't done anything. I'm still fiddling with the New Yorker and most of my shop is taken by lathes and mills and saws and welders that I bought. That being the case, the Ford is serving the purpose of a shed for the time being. Something I'm not happy about at all, but since my workshop is also my warehouse, business has to take priority. So sadly, Ford is hard to spot in my garage between all the machinery, shoes, diagnostic devices, chimney pieces and Chrysler bits and bobs.
Meanwhil, I got a CSU 750 cfm blow-thru carb in excellent condition and a complete Holley jet assortment all for 250 pounds (the guy didn't know what he had obviously hehe) and I'm tempted to use the TA45 turbo that's collecting dust on the shelf.
That's all for now. See ya guys.
P.S. If anyone's planning a vacation in Croatia, lemme know, Id be happy to show any of you guys around Zadar.
Cheers,
Marko
