    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...

    Motorcraft FL 1A oil filter cut apart

    I use my aviation cutter made by Air Wolf. I cut open all of my filters during each oil change. It’s probably 25 years old and still does a good job. The aviation filters are much heavier built so if you spend the bucks it will be the last you ever purchase. Not sure what they cost now days. But...

    Exhaust bolt help needed, please!

    Patience is the key. I like to start with Kroil and in worst case will go with mouse oil. You have to be careful when you use heat that you don’t over do it. I managed to remove all of the B1 and recently the B2 bolts with out any breakage. But both engines were on the stand and I could rotate...

    What other hobbies do you have?

    Retired at 59. February will be 8 years and it seems I work harder than ever. I do the car thing and ride the Harley. Both have been intermittent these past couple of years due to dealing with two hurricanes. We decided to move closer back to home and have been developing some property in the...
