I think it is a 1/4" flare fitting. That means it would be a 7/16" x 20 thread pitch. Can you get a close up picture?

Get it to that car show 56", if its running take her out. It doesn't have to be finished that's for sure.

It sounds like someone might have slipped in a clutch shaft from another vehicle in there.

56' sounds like he knows exactly how to impress the neighbors! That's why some build em' 56, to make some noise!

Bubba engineering could definitely be in the works on the clutch shaft. It needs to be right or you will have trouble.

Many soldiers when they heard the infamous clicking or clunking of the axle...

It used to be the places like Summit looked at the products they sourced form China. It seems now they pass them right to us to check out, review and send back.

Thanks 56', I enjoy your project! Zinc is required in your engine. I would run a conventional 30 weight or a 10W-30 engine oil that contains Zinc, rather than add it. Zinc has its own issues. Too...

Its alive! Nice looking ride there TJ. I love the air conditioning! Great color combination. That baby will get some looks.

It is looking great 56' Here is a link for lubes.

After my oil disaster, I always install a new copper washer, tighten it down and fie it up. If it leaks I tighten till it stops.

A standard Harmonic Balancer puller will take the balancer off....

It is under engine oil pressure. A max of around 40 PSI or so. If it is not a good tight fit it will leak. If it is not solidly attached it will blow off and dump all the oil in a minute. The copper...

I agree with gm and 56', you have more than one thing going on. If the pedal goes to the floor and there are no external leaks, the seals on the master cylinder piston are leaking internally. The...

The breather was in the cover on the model 41 and early Salisbury stuff. Later when the 44 appeared, the 44 has the breather as a hollow bolt holding the brake block down as in gm's link to the Scout...

There is a gasket under the bolt. It is a tricky one as you can see from the copy of a post below from my thread on peeJ. The threads on the timing cover should be an inverted flare fitting. The...

Really a great project HDK. The pictures are great. There is a lot of detail there. I am positive there are pictures that will help others out.

With your rig, it must be perfect! Everything on...

The project is looking very good 56'! I believe you have brought Flossy back in a solid way. The paint looks just right. Taking them to a get together is what its all about. Even if its a small...

You are truly getting the full experience with that rig Hdk! That is a great toy to have around that's for sure. That baby is pristine. You are doing an excellent job of keeping it perfect. I would...

On mine everything was worn out. I pretty much had to replace everything in the linkage. The worn out clutch linkage explained some of the damage I found in the transmission from grinding gears!

I am definitely liking the tape recorded radio chatter. That makes the whole thing a time machine!

gm has you straight. Do Not Touch the adjusting bolts on the fingers of the pressure plate. They are preset. Moving those will definitely lead to problems. as gm said, and we discussed before, any...

There are a few good sources for Automotive testing equipment. In the end it is the brand name and place of manufacture you are looking for. You can shop prices at a lot of places. I am very fond of...

I would tighten that clutch linkage up 56'. It will give you headaches in adjustment if the components are worn. Replace or repair anything that will cause you lost motion.

Like gm said, the...

Yes 1/8" is the size. The purpose of the hole was to help let the air past a closed thermostat, preventing steam pockets.

Wow a very cool radio! I did not realize there were FM signals used in the 40's and 50's. I always thought FM was a late 60's thing. The shear size of the radio in that thing is wild. Larry did it...

Hahaha! Man that thing is hard to find now. It is available from other sources under some other names but basically, it is a RobertShaw.

The detailing is coming along nicely HKG! That is a show stopper no question. One for the museum.
