Mines at home waiting for me to get off work. Did you order the same part # I did?

What is the preferred lubricant? I have a tube of red n tacky I'd like to use .

yes that is what I will need next. I found a complete mc with that plate but it was $845 or so.

I have two gearboxes in the back of my truck with the tops off. I will take some pictures tomorrow and see what I can identify for you after work.

Good deal. Thinking about it more I like your idea too. I may have to see how yours turns out!

My plan is to either modify the existing mc mount or fab a new one with steel angles and tubing for the clutch linkage.

As I understand it this plate is needed to do a remote reservoir and in doing so, eliminate the need for residual valves plus better fording capabilities. But I also think that lines could be attached to the reservoir mounted on the mc, and add the remote reservoir. That could be the workaround...

The plate that attaches to the top of the master cylinder main body. Guess thats the unobtainium part. Eastern Surplus has a "call for price" for their mc with plate, same as the remote reservoir.

Searching the web I'm coming up with nada on the remote mount plate for the dual mc. Anyone else have anything to go on?

I will be going the dual air pack system since I picked up a spare a few months ago and verified it works, plus my original rebuilt air pack works as well. The MC39577 I ordered is now saying next Tuesday. When I get it I'll check the stroke and report back.

Check valve as in the residual valves in the ports? emailed dorman to try and get specs on 3 different part numbers but they said they cant help me due to liability issues. Wont even give me spec sheets 😠

Searching for Dorman MC630985 I come up with out of stock everywhere. However, Raybestos MC39577 appears to have the same specs. I found a closeout on rock auto for $46. Should be in my hands Friday.

Replaced my rubber fuel lines last night. The return line had visible cracks in the rubber and practically broke in half when I folded it. Also have a pair of IP oil lines in the queue. Hope to get those on sometime next week and also service the front bearings and boots. I'd like to get a...

Ordered a new 60psi sending unit earlier this week and received it today. Pulled out the old one and lo & behold: Sorry for the blurry picture but that is a 120psi sending unit! Had to remove it with a pair of channel locks, destroying it unfortunately. But now my oil pressure looks much...

Count me in, thank you

Got the new temp and oil pressure gauges installed with mixed results lol The temp gauge got up to 140 degrees after about 20 minutes of running, which is good but probably means I need a new thermostat. I would expect it to get hotter than that. Oil pressure went up to about 30 psi but after...

Well I saw some writing on a label on the oil sender and tried to wipe off the dirt but ended up wiping off the writing lol. I decided to order new gauges after checking and verifying a good ground. Also got the pyro installed, just need to fabricate a gauge mount. Unfortunately the old lady got...

I say buy it. Mine sat for at least 8-9 years, although inside, but it fired up fairly quickly even though the tank pump wasn't functioning. I had about 10k in it before I really dug in with shipping and a trailer and some spare parts. Its a fun hobby! And I too love the stories of a...

I think I just found my next project! Having the two gauges together should make for some good info for diagnostics.

So I started drilling a little bit before starting the engine just to get a good mark on the manifold. Started it up and finished drilling the rest and it went fine. A little nerve racking drilling on a running engine! For tapping I turned off the engine, gooped up a bunch of bearing grease on...
