Again, I'm not sure how just oil would stop the return oil behind the seal housing would not seep through the threads on the ...   04-17-2024 07:57 pm

Maybe call ARP directly and ask them? Having done 100s of clutch and flywheel resurfacing(in order to change the rear main seal at the same time), ...   04-17-2024 03:49 pm

Vance: the Stromberg carbs are very easy to adjust, especially if one has a CO meter(my Heathkit from 1983). Also, I happened to get ...   04-10-2024 05:25 pm

I can't be sure from the 2 dimensional picture, but that looks like the earlier('72 & '73) flywheel. If that surface is "sticking out" ...   04-08-2024 09:34 pm

At least put a dial gauge on the crank to see what the runout is. Also, put on the flywheel and push it forward ...   04-07-2024 05:03 pm

Sounds like your thrust(fore-aft movement of the crank)is too large. I do not know if you rebuilt the engine, but the 2 half-moon washers should ...   04-07-2024 12:34 pm

Looks like a very nice one with many upgrades! ...   03-19-2024 07:59 pm

Corey: As Art stated, the later engines had the breather tube go from the rear crankcase breather(like yours) to the airbox. The earlier '73 ...   12-13-2023 04:17 pm

So, according to the torque chart for grade 5, fine pitch(24 threads/inch) for a 5/16" diameter bolt, that would be 22lbs-ft ...   11-21-2023 08:09 pm

Sent a "private message" chart so you could print it: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81HOHszn-zS.jpg The one I have used for years came from the back of a Snap-On catalog ...   11-21-2023 11:48 am

Assuming the later, larger flanges that use the 3/8" X 24 threads/inch, standard torque would be 44 ft-lbs for a grade 5 bolt. 40 would probably ...   11-21-2023 01:13 am

Very nice rebuild! Hope all is well and want to thank you for saving another one! One thing I noticed that could easily be changed is ...   11-10-2023 12:22 pm

Rob: this could be VERY dangerous as the shaft is collapsible, with an inner and outer casing. There are/were 2 nylon "breakaway" pins inside ...   11-03-2023 09:04 pm

The upper stud for the top cover(with metal bushing) is 8mmX1.25 pitch while the bottom stud for the lower cover(with bushing) is 6mmX1.0 pitch. I have ...   11-01-2023 11:31 pm

You CAN slide the lower one off, but most people use only the upper one as it is easier to remove and where an rag ...   11-01-2023 05:24 pm

The obvious is a rag/whatever getting caught between a sprocket and the belt, braking the belt resulting in $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. ...   11-01-2023 05:22 pm

Sorry you purchased that: I had written this past year about this, and they are poorly designed. Martin Robey's one, although a little more ...   10-17-2023 02:25 pm

The aluminum shims that are SOMETIMES used are on the driver's/left side engine mount, so the steering shaft is not hitting the exhaust header. ...   10-13-2023 01:01 pm

Jr: noomg is correct in that you can remove the front suspension fairly easily by his method. Art is also correct in that the ...   10-06-2023 01:45 pm

The true '73 engines(rope seal, #2760 & earlier) did not have an oil slinger. The later ones with a rear crank seal housing did and there ...   09-20-2023 08:55 pm

Some of the earlier J-Hs had a bronze bushing, which was later replaced with a better roller bearing one: INA-Germany--HK-1514 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007D340SK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 or Torrington-Germany--Hk-1514 ...   09-13-2023 01:57 pm
