    I replaced my leaky radiator, new thermostat, new cap, flush and add new coolant. The system took some tme to burp out the bubbles. I will get my old radiator repaired and keep it for a spare or possibly sell it. Bert

There was 2174 units built in February of 1953 starting with Ser #80046010 and ending #80047162. I took 2174 and divided it by the 28...

    M37 Clutch replacement

    Charlie, Do like Al said and get the flywheel surfaced. This will allow you to bench assemble the pressure plate and disk. (You will need to take them back apart for the install but at least you can check heights, READ BELOW) Check your pilot bushing and replace if needed. I would order a new...

    Whats this called?

    I would just make a new one myself with hole punches and razor blade. You should be able to find a suitable raw material at a local hardware or automotive parts store. Bert

    Front Main seal replacement

    Bill, The OEM oil slinger is on the crank, a flat washer with a keyway slot and slight bevel to keep oil from following the journal out the front of the chain cover. Your not loosing it, this is often overlooked by most. This was removed if a seal was installed with an intregal slinger such as...

    Front Main seal replacement

    Rich, I would remove the gears and look for the leak behind the plate. You did say that you replaced the oil pan gasket, but by you mentioning oil gushing from the front of the block. I would wonder if the front cork gasket isn't sealed correctly. Did you use a liberal amount of oil resistant...

    Front Main seal replacement

    Hi Rich, The nut is right hand thread. (look at the direction of the hand crank drive tangs, this is an easy way to tell thread direction on older engines) The fanbelt pulley is held on by 6, 1/4" hex head fasteners. Once you remove the large center nut you will need to use a harmonic balancer...
