Yes, say hello to David and Margaret for us. It would have been good to see them again, but we had some clashes (one of which didn't happen......oh well)

Have a good trip all.

What is the easiest way to swap out the old hood ornament for the new on my 1940? Doesn't seem very accessable.

Exhaust manifold:

It is interesting on my RHD 6 cylinder that I can remove the manifold setup (without taking loose the steering) only by taking apart the hot box first, then taking it out as two pieces.

I can then put it all back together and it WILL go back in as a single assembly. (Scratching head)

I too had an amazing amount of "retightening" after running hot. (and I initially torqued it to the book....the ones I could get the torque wrnech on anyway). I probably retightened 4 times.

I'll take some pics next time.

Wade, looks like your 34 will be a masterpiece.

that has a small amount of info....

Wait till one of owners of the later models gets on here....probably need a wheel puller to get them off.

Welcome.

You might try using messaging him

I doubt very much that Harvey will only need one piston, but if that's all that's wrong I have a box of them in varying sizes. So he is welcome if needed.

LOL....just noticed you have a spot for that.

Why not put a Paypal link up on the site?

If a few would throw in 5 or 10 bucks each, might make some dent in the bill.........

Excellent photos, guys!!!

Thx
