    Custom ground cam.

    The intake manifold has hot fluid running through it. It seems to me, in an effort to lower EGT's the Stock Intake manifold has got to go! Thoughts?

    Deuce doesn't like going backwards

    I have the same problem. No grinding sound, or feel just will not roll backwards. I looked at the parking brake, and loosened the pads. I never thought about looking for grease. I will report back, after the inspection, I am excited!

    When do you change your socks?

    It all depends... If the time to filter becomes long, time to change to a new filter. It depends where I get the oil. Some is really clean, sometimes, not so much.

    Starter Re-Build kit?

    These types of starters are very easy to rebuild, and there are kits to re-build 12 v starters. Are there any such parts to re-build our 24 v starters? Has anyone re-built their starter (and lived to tell about it)? Thanks

    need opinion... I'm stuck

    The 2 engines are not even close in this setting. The Multifuel horse power peaks at about 2000 RPM, the Ford 460 (while I love that engine) is quoted at over 5000 rpm. In a Deuce, a 460 with stock gearing, is way underpowered.

    Repairing Jerry can Holes/Leaks Help

    Brazing and Soldering are two different techniques. Brazing is usually a bronze alloy, with a Acetyline torch, while soldering is using solder, with a propane torch/Iron. I have used brazing to cover holes well over a 1/2 inch.

    Repairing Jerry can Holes/Leaks Help

    Honestly, if its just small pinholes, I would try brazing. It bounds well to almost any metal.
