Re: Autofab OK?

And I'm saying that it isn't the fault of the welder or the mfg. It is the fault of the basic design. Most of the time it works, but once in a while it doesn't. This looks like one of those times. The basic design that I posted above originates in pre WWII aircraft where a failure like that is far ...

Road Map doesn't bring anything to mind. It is the story of one particular race that Kevin Davis won by shear consumption of any fluid available to keep his auto trans functioning.
Speaking of KD, I just sent him a bunch of old Fox's for his vintage build. We need to get him on here.

Single Plane. I have watched some Dyno testing with a throttle body injection between the two and the single Plane gave better torque and overall HP numbers between the two.
It's not about power, dual planes have a habit of screwing with TB injections.

Re: FITech EFI system questions?

I destroyed a 408w in less than 10 miles on Fitech. If doing any injection I highly recommend port injection. My motor leaned out a few cylinders. Lesson learned do not put a $500 management system on a $10k motor. On that bronco I installed carb and it runs great still 5000+ miles later. What mani...

I like the reinforcement plate. Maybe we’ll start stamping them out and offer as an accessory.
Somebody was making them for commercial use, I used to buy them out of the catalog. I think they were for NGP transit antennas mounted in fiberglass.

Re: VHF "Race Radio" Antenna for OBS Ford Trucks / Broncos

I have repaired 2 roofs where the antenna pulled out. Both Dodges......... I usually put a backing plate on the bottom side if I can fit it. A little epoxy to bond everything together and it will last a very long time.

Alcoa center caps

I got some with some rims. In decent shape, will not be using them. Have the screws too. Just pay for shipping. Unless you want to drive to the middle of nowhere to pick them up....

Re: Extended bronco

I had one, I think I remember the window being one piece. Pretty sure you can swap in newer style windows. The cab I had for the aborted "Long Bronco" project was a jail window cab.

Re: VHF "Race Radio" Antenna for OBS Ford Trucks / Broncos

That's a pretty poor place to mount an antenna performance wise. Clean, but not super useful.

Re: The dreaded E4OD

When I lost OD in My F250's trans, it had a lot of shit broken inside. Jon was surprised it was still able to move.

I highly recommend Jon Woods. It was not cheap, but it still going strong for the guy that owns that truck now 7 years later.

Looks more like they put the #3 shim between 1&2 to make a limited flutter stack. It looks like there is a gap between 1&2.

Then go talk to Kris, he has a great Bronco. Also, if you want to keep it lead sprung, you really need to talk to him.

Looks like the one in my buddy's back yard in Yuma. Right down to the dodge he was going to pillage the 12V from.

Re: Stretched 12 OG GFB

No pics/vid?

Spring rate is very important, a lot of cars are undersprung and work the shocks real hard to compensate.
