Does anyone know where i can purchase NOS or quality after market springs?

Door panels of the 1950`s seemed to have had the fabric pressed in lines rather than the fabric being sowed .
The technique was using a steam system that heated a device that was bent into the patterns on the door panel and pressed to make the patterns on the door panel upholstery
I had a upholster that knew a man that could do that but I never got his name .
I am a sheet metal worker and thought of a method
Take 30 gauge sheet metal and cut a piece perhaps 6 inches and make it the length of the pattern .then bend it to the pattern which is easy enough .
Then with an oven heat it to lets say 300 degrees and with gloves pull it from the oven and press it on the fabric until it fuses to the muslin behind it .
Maybe I should spray a sticky substance on the back of the fabric or muslin to enhance the process .
Does anyone else have a source or any other crack pot ideas to do this process?
Help ! This question of this process is a scratch that needs to be itched !

Thank you so much . I now have a place to meditate on what you just sent me to get to an understanding of the distributer and the performance of the engine .
are there any books that would describe in detail what you just explained ?

Thanks...whats a dwell?

I added Octane booster and it helped a lot ,but its still there .
This is a rebuilt engine bored over .40
Maybe the high compression ?
The spark was set as spec on the flywheel.

I have a Packard Pacific 54 with the big straight 8 engine
I wonder if their is an additive to add to the gas to raise the octane .
I have engine rattle when i am in the 70 mph range going up hill
