    Dragging a Halftrack halfway across the country

    That was an epic journey well completed, and that half track (my favourite with the side valve engine(better power speed and MPG!)) looks well worth your efforts. So, congratulations on a mission well fulfilled.

    What is going on with this Flexplate? Out of round and bent? Yikes...

    Heck, that's a 'lot of inquiring' and a lot of checking. It's the Wrong component, and method of installing (at the least!) Nothing is going to change that. (so) The Shop that carried out that faulty work should (simply) be given the opportunity to FULLY rectify the incorrect work and fitting...

    Only operate the heater whilst cranking. It is operated much as the same as the M35A2 deuce manifold heater.

    Rock Mountain Wildfire - North Georgia

    That must be a horrific situation for you, and we can only wish for the rains, or a change of wind direction for you soon. , I can not even imagine if we were in that situation, with our two fire trucks (ready), and 1200 gallons of water. At the max spray time of something like two minutes only.
