Its hard to believe, but yes you can install the dist 180 off. We had the same problem - replaced head gasket, rebuilt carb, rebuilt dist, rebuilt fuel pump.... started right up and was running good. Took the dist off to install electronics, removed the RF filter, re-installed and would not...

Being in the Dee, keep looking at M101s at the GL in PA - too far. Looking for a parade queen for local shows to carrying the VFW gang around in. I keep looking at Wright-Pat auctions but only see M105s. Any around the area? Keith

Hey Mark - I could not find the article as well. Gave up on trying to do the carb overhaul with my son. We sent ours to Jim Wallace - you would not believe the job he did!! We have been staring at it for a few days afraid to get it dirty.

Is 80/90 weight correct for use in the trans and diffs? I bought marine grade that comes with a little screw on pump for the lower outboard motor. Now I have to "weight" until spring so the oil will thin out.

OK - something is wrong here. You guys went ga..ga over the tran/engine. I got stuck on how nice Larry built the wood buck to move it around and it was probably in body position when it was on the casters. Yikes....

Now what the heck????? Ok- photos are starting to really ......... i resized to correct numbers but the darned thing only shows the link not a photo.... can someone give me a clue? Or do I have to buy a vowel?

Here it is... [http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg109/znattrass/?action=view&current=DCP_4233-1.jpg]

That is one straight hanging bumper!

RE: Manifold Flap Stuck- that ani Bolts are a great idea - would it be ok to use the tapped head ones? The ones with the threaded hole for the attachment of the oil filter (2), and vent lines (2)? For some odd reason I have a total of 6 of these all in the wrong locations which led us to know...

You'd think tires would be easy. The local guys here wanted $160-$178.40 per tire+tax (I paid $160), tubes ran $14-$21.95, (I paid $25), go to expenses were $20 in tolls, $70 in fuel ($9 per at my end). The unknown was shipping because overland trucks can't come to residential areas here...

Lately we've been in the news as "Da Kwame" or "Text-a-gate"

Just getting into this - saw a handful of MPVA gigs here in Clarkston/Rochester/etc.... doesn't the mitt end at Bay City?? My son is in high school with some activities but we could probably make a trek - would a camo net thrown over an Envoy get us in the gate?

Hi Dave & thanks. My son and I looked at your truck in Midland in the summer. Very nice & complete. We had to take ours to bare metal and you can tell other "work". I recently bought 10 Denmans w/flaps/tubes in OH. Let me know if you need a set. I make trips to Kalifornia-mazoo which...

Here we go.... picked the head up from the machine shop surfaced and baked clean-they even buffed the s/plugs. Here's my checklist for comments: 1. Head - will prime and paint original silver with hi temp engine paint. 2. Intake - will have baked clean and paint as well - no powder coat...

It seemed like they were fast to want my money and I recalled that it was a polyester which has a short life under temp. I'll track down Jet Hot. Aside what Lane has to say about you guys, I am starting to like it here.

Had the head surfaced and baked. Guy said to have the exh manifold powder coated. Does it hold up? Worth $70? Should I stick with silver since my engine is silver? Oh, the guy also recommended baking the int & exh to clean them? Good idea? Said to use a wire brush on the valves & piston...

Just checking in to this site under orders from Lane!! Bought a 1954 M37 as a project vehicle with my 17 year old son. Live north of the Dee in a town called Clarkston (like the singer). Look forward to joining the fray. Keith
