    My favorite for fuel lines are the hotrod thumb screw clamps from the early 50s. I took this picture just for the hose clamps. I found some NOS EELCO thumb screws a few years ago. You can get them from Restoration Supply Company. They don't have a web site but call them and get their catalog. They have a lot of detail stuff.

    as a rule of thumb, We used 2 degrees per pound of cap on roundy-round dirt track cars. coolant was not allowed , and these run hot ,4- 5000 rpm for 20 minutes at a time So, when we used a 15 pound cap , our boiling point was 30 degrees above 212 or 242 degrees on pure water . we added products like wetter water , which increased boiling point ...

    I've heard a few old-timers say that as a rule of thumb, for every 1,000 rpm's, you should have 10 psi. Runnin' at 2500 rpm... needs 25 psi oil pressure. Don't quote me... that's what "they" say. You dont have to be Old But that is the rule 10psi per 1000rpms. at speed Idle should still be at least20-25 with Hyd cam so lifters dont clatter. Tony.

    The Airbag Connection. Get the electrical stuff off the back & remove the tumbler pin. Then remove the tumbler. It should come apart fairly easily from there. I think the on/off switch is available from several vendors. JH. Harrison, Feb 10, 2008. SHARE POST #2.

  7. Dual quads CFM ? | The H.A.M.B. - The Jalopy Journal

    www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/dual-quads-cfm.854788

    Yes, there is a rule of thumb. The pressure drop across each dual carb. will be 1/2 that of a single carb. The size of each dual carb should be approximately the square root of 0.50 or 70.7% of the optimum single size carb. This changes the standard single carb. formula to CID times Peak RPM / 4887 (instead of 3456).

    from Raeford, NC. Talking about modifying brake stuff, try this on as a project.

  11. I'm getting conflicting information on '30s Mopar lug bolt...

    www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/im-getting-conflicting-information-on-30s...

    I was under the impression that Chrysler, DeSoto, Plymouth and Dodge all used the 5 x 4.5" lug bolt pattern for a long time. Since like 1930. Any of the online information and charts that I've seen for the old Mopars show 4.5" in diameter bolt circles right down the line. And yet some people are telling me different.
