you guys are 24 carat gold

this is absolutely perfect. I am working on my next project a 1961 Jaguar lightweight coupe E-type and i am going to use this instead!!!! thank you. i should be able to plug this into an autometer speedo and make it work, ha?

With out this forum the rebuild would have been impossible. If me better half only had one eye and the other leg I would still love her, same with 1076 I love this car regardless. We spent a lot of Friday nights together. She will come around. Thank you for support!!!

If any of you are having problems with your electronic speedometer(s), after spending $200.00 on proximity sensors I found a fellow who spec'd and fixed my speedo. It works again. Hall effect sensors for speedometers, dah. Bill Hilbornffice:office" /><?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =...

You know what, I musta spent $60.0 k on this car this winter. It actually does not drive very well. I am going to get a feller here in town that sets up race cars to have a saturday on it.

Just a heads up, this issue needs to be closed off. I installed a 4.5 " 3 disk clutch in car. Quarter master does not have a wghtd button flywheel , a regular flywheel, for this or a weighted flex plate for this. They do for a 5.5" but not the 4.5" clutch systems, so heads up every one. I...

Yea, you are right. Not worth it. I bought a BandM WTD flex plate for $70.00 to locate wt properly. Then I was going to use this one a just install it, but it has the original ring gear to engine spacing so I would have to reverse the starter mods I made to catch the quartermaster non...

I was posting my counter balance question and saw yours. I have just spent the last few weeks getting my RedLine - Weber 8 stack system problem solved (after a major winter rebuild). It ran great before. Wayne at Weber their engineer is great helped me locate my problems. The mechanical...

The fellows at quartermaster sold me the wrong flex plate for my 347 ford externally balanced engine. (ok, lets go 1 step further, they do not even know what I am talking about). So....rather than me tearing apart the engine - tranny to install the proper counter balanced flex plate, does one of...

Try a peek at power master 9604 for pressure plate, 9603 for flex plate (different location of ring gear). Depending on what clutch yer using.

Your advice as always is very sound. I agree. Thank you so much AGAIN. you are a walking CAV encyclopedia. What the heck am I going to do on the couch now with all the extra time on me hands, I was going to use up this winter installing bearing???? (by the way I get so bloody excited running...

Hello CAV brothers and sisters. Stupid question. I am going to insert a direct hydraulic throw out bearing (ref: 2G Motorsports www.gt4d.com, and Tilton Engineering www. tiltonracing.com). I think I have to jank out the engine out and up a bit to do this. Just checking 1st. (the...
