Yeah flat top 5K.

 

Can't wait for it to be in and running haha.

Need advice..

 

Whats better for inlet or exhaust..... Studs with nuts .......or just bolts mo studs

 

I'd personally feel better with using studs and bolts.

 

 

 

UPDATE:

Picked up some stuff today.

 

- rocker cover gasket

- spark plugs

- oils

- paint for extractors (surprise for colour to come)

 

Parts coming are thermostat housing, new water pump, new leads!

Josh :cool:

Bolted everything up to the engine today with a help from a mate.

 

Things i didnt get done... Bolting up water pump, bolting fuel pump, carby, inlet, extractors.

 

I need to put the dizzy in. But i don't know how to do it properly.

I just set the first piston to tdc, then set the point to the first cylinder so it distributes spark there obviously. (well thats how i think you do it. But i imagine it's more difficult than that.

 

Help would be awesome.

 

 

Cheers.

Unless you're 180 out that should be good enough to get it running. Then just do it with a timing light.

Sooooo, my 1955 F100 rocked up yesterday. Kind of stopped me from putting the engine in Barry.

 

Here it is. It's immaculate besides the damage from travel.

 

 

 

 

WILL get the engine in Barry today.

I love this!!! I personally like the 56 wrap around windscreens more (as i think i alerted to on Instagram)

 

But love it none the less!!
