    Boss 351 carburetor

    I used a Walker kit to overhaul my original 4300D several years ago following engine overhaul for the first time. My carb had a plated restoration by Pony Carbs years ago when Jon was still with us. I found his modifications he had made to improve performance. I still run my 4300D but it leaves...

    Motor and Trans Installation

    I installed my engine and manual transmission as a unit. I had the front bumper off, front wheels up a couple of inches and rear jacked up. Key to a good installation is go slow and have a helping hand if at all possible. Number one priority is safety.….as mentioned by several others.

    Feedback on Boss i'm interested in

    Looking over the pics and documentation, the Boss appears to be legit. In saying that…..I‘m a bit concerned over the quality of restoration. The steering column finish condition is mentioned by another member. I have some concern over the engine compartment pictures. I pulled my drivetrain out...

    How do I time this thing?

    How old is your dampener? I never trust vintage unless it is newly rebuilt. Damper Doctor in CA does a fantastic job. They did both my b1 and b2. Prior to the rebuilds, I always timed by vacuum. Jon with Pony Carburetor’s put out a step by step method. Solved a lot of my issues following carb...

    Air compressor…… needed.

    I’m a Quincy dude. I’ve owned a horizontal 30 gal two-stg for years. Changed the head gasket once. I’ve just purchased a 80 gal vertical 5 hp unit as an add-on when requiring heavy demand. I researched the IR units prior to purchase. They are also top of the line.

    Best Oil

    I ran Mobil 10w40 with a zinc additive for years in the B1 and B2. The bearings on both engine looked great at teardown. The B1 a couple of years ago and the B2 just recently. Since the B1 O/H I am now running Amsoil 10w40 that has the zinc in it. I used the 30wt Amsoil break-in oil during...
