Re: Dash & Oil line on a 1932 901
Posted by Tim Cole On 2016/1/11 16:46:47
I've been following this, but I don't understand what the issues are.
1932 motors were solid mount and there was no need for a flexible oil line. 1933 did not use the rubber line. That doesn't mean they didn't update, only that I have dealt with original cars that didn't have it.
Carburetor linkage is illustrated in the attached photo. As you can see it does not have the flexible line. As well there is a little clip that holds it to the firewall (visible behind the cylinder head in this picture).
902 wiring is shown in the second photo.
The exhaust system for 1933 is completely different from 32 and 34. It crosses from right to left in front of the gas tank.
I've never seen a car with a genuine downdraft conversion as mentioned in the service letters so I have no idea what they did with the throttle bar, the exhaust pipe, nor the choke cable. I know of one car that got one to disguise that it had a 1931 engine so I would check the motor number.
