The Jalopy Journal
What if you sectioned the oil pan and added some volume to the sides like a road race pan?
you can buy various booster designs and swap them out of your Holley using parts from Allstate Carburetor Company. I recently built an annular...
Not exactly a T bucket but worth a shot- anyone have any more pics of this one? I found it via google search but didn’t see anything else: [ATTACH]
I think so. The show has everything from kinda rough drivers to extremely nice show cars, so I’ll fit in there in the middle somewhere.
One of the pickups in the first hall had a very detailed small block with tri power that took me until the drive home to realize I should have...
I took a pic of that one too. Quirky but cool. [ATTACH]
Great job on the pickup. I saw it yesterday late afternoon at the show. Display looked great, lighting was great, pinstripes looked great. Did...
Thanks for the info. I believe I will scuff and shoot the tubing black once all the bending and flaring is complete. Also, good info on the...
I’ll be using whatever fits the space available lol. I did just order a couple of vents similar to that from Old Air Products - they are plastic...
Serviceability is my main reason for leaning towards the corrugated tubing - easy to re-route or disconnect when needed.
I do plan to open the inlets as much as possible, which won't be much, but I needed to get the box built first to verify it will fit where I want...
We got wind blowing all the trees around making me nervous lol. Figured I’d just head out into the garage and make a giant mess.
Well, this next bit is going to take awhile so I suppose you guys have the pleasure of watching the struggle. One of the things I wanted to...
I'm in the same head space as you. To make a hot rod legal to run at the drag strip would take away from it being driven on the street (at least...
Well, spent some time and brain cells science-ing out a throttle pedal. At one time, I had this all sorted out with a catalog pedal, but it was...
I haven’t seen that article- that would have been interesting to read before I went down the rabbit hole. I had a linkage system that I bench...
^Harsh! No love for the bandit. Great job with the truck! Excited to see it at the PRS!
I will be using Rain-X as well lol. That’s a staple ingredient for success around here.
A few highlights of that trip (might get deleted and that’s ok): [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I was able to visit AZ for work a few years ago and got to check off a bucket list item of exploring the Sonoran desert! What an absolutely...
Constructive criticism received. Counter argument incoming lol: Well more or less, this is what I’m stuck with and it’s better than a hand crank...
Thank you- feeling much better! Amazing how easily health can be taken for granted! You are absolutely right- I was doing a lot of head...
Well I am happy to report the windshield wiper system is mostly complete - just gotta cut the cable to length and grease everything - don’t wanna...
After a lot of thinking about logistics and cost and timeline, I’m kinda leaning away from going for the AMBR. Basically, I would be spending...
I love the earlier iteration with the little fenders, cross ram, and no top.
Man, the PNW has put out some seriously badass cars over the years. Thanks for that info!
I've got what I needed in that department. Took four tries, but I finally got what was advertised. Not all heater control valves are created...
Thank you. Good suggestions. I've told myself and my gf that, for mental health, I need this off my chest (finish bucket) before I move on to...
The rules say some verbiage of the car not being shown in finished condition prior to the GNRS. No paint or upholstery details etc. But you...
ALL the time. This past weekend I went out there and opened a drawer to see a fully disassembled Holley 4bbl that I guess I walked away from 6...
