- Yay! I´m working on the Tudor in this episode. Installing the Cyclone 7,5-1 high compression cylinder head, building the header, installing the Burns intake manifold, finding out my "restored" Stromberg 97 is crap but install it anyway... Alot of things happening so I had to split this one into two videos. Part deuce is comming next weekend.
Thank you for watching!
Just to clarify a few things. I torqued the head three times but i edited out the middle step. The carb is an old restored stromberg 97 and the linkage is not quite ready yet. More on that in part 2. 👌 Thanks for watching.
I love this particular form of Hot Rod!!!
Thank you, sir! Basic is cool.
Very creative bell crank bracket!
Thank you! 👌
Guy is really good with that hand grinder
Years of practice. Thank you! 😀
The way you design and make parts you would fit right in a hotrod shop in Southern California. Great work.
Thank you Gary for the kind words. 👌
I liked the way you made your carb linkage, simple but effective. Can't wait to see you hook up the magneto. Once a magneto is set up properly, they are simple and reliable. I love your Tudor, I had to go out in my garage and give my coupe a little hug (the weather has been terrible here in North Central Texas) can't wait to give Matilda a little drive. I inherited some vintage Snap-On tool boxes from my father in law recently. Been organizing and cleaning sixty years of grease and grim off of them. Oh by the way, nice save going out your door, came close to putting a bruise on your bum. Keep up the good work!
Thank you sir! I surprised myself even. 😃 I've heard you got a cold winter there too. The snow on the smooth concrete floor almost knocked me down. I have no idea how to set up the magneto but I hope I can figure it out. Say hello to Matilda from me.
Fer sure understanding why FORD made changes. They were piping Fuel in close to the exhaust ports. We all know fuel burns best when cool. But still it got them off to a good start and I appreciate the design. It was the beginning of what we have today! KUDOS to Henry FORD!
Neat to see old engines running and hopped up after 100 years. Mags,can be really shocking .
Yep, it's very satisfactory to get the old American iron running again. Thank you for watching!
Can't wait to see part 2 😎💪
Same here! Thanks for watching 👌🍻
Part ll is comming this weekend! 😃
@@slowshop yeaaahhh 😎💪
Guess if I had read the caption I would of seen its a Stromberg 97 who read the instructions anyway great job
I like comments so thank you. 😃 sadly the part 2 is going to be a bit delayed as I haven't found out how to set up and adjust the magneto.
lbs for pounds? "The libra (Latin for "scales / balance") is an ancient Roman unit of mass that was equivalent to approximately 328.9 grams. It was divided into 12 unciae (singular: uncia), or ounces. The libra is the origin of the abbreviation for pound, "lb"."
Thank you! This was way more better to ask than just google it. 👌👌
@@slowshop I googled it :)
@@mafcawebmaster4237 Haha!
Well there you go! Blame it on the Romans :-) I think that is a quote from Monty Python.
I LIKED IT A LOT, SO I PUSHED LIKE TWICE !
Haha! That's a real fan! 😄
hi have you put a bigger cam in ,?? looks good in what you done
Thank you sir! Yes I have a hot cam in this one. It's a reground stock A cam. I have a video of the cam with the specs here on my channel. 👌
@@slowshop ok thank you for that il take a look cheers mate
Cool !
Thank you sir! 🍻
Great job how did you pull the head off so easy? put a engine hoist on mine, lifted the whole car off the ground. So I built a set of head pullers. New gasket and reground head think I gained a little compression, what carb is that on the car? Glad to see you back on the two door
I'm Mr Atlas. 😂😂 No, this head has only been on the engine since August. Thanks for watching.
I liked it in black! 👍😄
Haha! Thanks for the trade mate! 👌
Good job Chum
Thank you sir! 👌
Because I am to lazy to read all the comments, I will tell you now, the throttle cross over that is mounted to the top 2 bolts of the flywheel housing is either broken or very loose.
How can you tell? I don't think it is.
@@slowshop Because I am a Model A mechanic and when you stepped on the throttle the pivot point moved along with the cross over rod.
@@j.c.stephenson1305 I can see it now. When I tested the linkage. Great job spotting it. 👌
Lbs is the abbreviation for libras.
Thank you! 👌
Love this old ford bro
Thank you Tim. 👌
Väldigt sjysta videor! Vad hade för fördelare innan du byter till magnet?
Många tack! Jag hade original fördelare med modernt lock och tändkablar. Funkar fint men ett jäkla pillande med spaken på ratten.
Slowshop & Custom ah! Ja det förstår jag. Då är det samma som jag har på mitt projekt (inte kört den än dock).
Men du har inte ett sånt stag mellan rattstången och fördelaren över nu då som du kan tänka sälja? Det Jag saknar det.
@@Fjant Tyvärr gick det staget åt när jag byggde nya länkaget till förgasaren. Kolla om www.veteranshop.se har. 👌
That is really cool 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thank you! The Tudor is running good with a little more hp than original. 😇
@@slowshop 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
You bolted the new carburetor linkage arm to the intake manifold with a standard bolt. How will you keep the bolt from becoming loose (or tightening so much the arm won't move? I love what you're doing!
Thank you sir! I will be using thread lock and plastic washers and hope that will be good.
@@slowshop Excellent idea. Thanks.
@@mafcawebmaster4237 I wondered the same thing.
I figured you tightened a nut on it against the manifold.
I would put copper coat on the gasket
Copper and aluminium don't mix well.
I wanted to hear it run.😢
You have to check out part 2. 😉
Hey very cool video I'm just building my car and have seen your rear tires what are you driving because they look nice and fat ?!
Best regards
Aloha! Thank you, glad you like it. They are Firestone 7.00-17" and they are great. What are you building?
@@slowshop I am currently welding a 2-door sedan and would like to keep it as original as possible and build it up and convert it to an original hot rod. unfortunately don't know any term for it. just put on big tires and overtake the engine and start tuning. I'm 19 and I haven't got the chance to make big jumps yet. First I bought 16 inch spoke rims.
Kind Regards

@@lukeberke4574 Sounds like a great project Luke. I'm trying to keep this Tudor as simple as possible too. 👌
Lbs is a short term for libra. Libra is Latin for scales.
Thank you! 👌
Did you have to modify the magneto to get it to fit the Model A distributor drive?
Aloha! Nope, it's a magneto from a
German Ford g28t engine and it is a direct fit.
I'll give you $5AUD . . OR $50AUD mate 😉👍👍
And front facing. . .
Haha!! It might be up for sale when the roadster is ready. 😉
Have to go more when using a extension like 90lbs
I'll buy it 😁👍👍
I'm sure! 😉👌 Thank you for watching.
Definitely love America. Funny choices though.
Funny choices?
@@Hagbergscorner ya. The budwieser and other stuff.
Bud and Corrs are the flags I have. 😁
@@slowshop what about Fosters??
Sold
Who? The Tudor is still here.
hur snapt går den
Jättesnapt.
@@slowshop om den bare kommer at kunne gå 110 då Blir fint. Ursäkta mig dårliga svensk jag er dansk hälsning från köbenhamnn
@@heinejensby6737 Jag har provat 105 km/h och det är inga problem. 👌
Whatever happened to this car and the Cyclone Head?
Aloha. The car is in the garage, still well and good. The Cyclone head is wall art. That was the worst quality part I've ever seen, sadly.
Thanks for the reply. I figured the second one didn’t work out as well. I bought a new one on the used market before I had watched your video or had seen so much negativity about the vendor. Maybe I’ll try it at some point but I’ll use another for a new engine build.
@4bangerdean I try to answer as fast as I can. 👌 Mine is fixable, but a brand new for $700 you think you get one that works. Well, I really hope yours is ok. I drive with the original 4.2-1 compression head. 😄 Good enough with all the other speed parts.
Back
I'm back! 😁
I can't tell by your "accent" what part of the world you live in. Where?
In the land of the worlds most beautiful women. Sweden! 👌
@@slowshop I think I agree with you about Swedish women :) It looks pretty cold outside your shop. I'm lucky to live in New Mexico where I can drive my 1931 Tudor almost year-around. Was 70ºF here today.
@@mafcawebmaster4237 We have had a mild winter this year. Around -4°F
Scoop backwards for sure
@@MrJeep75 Yep, it's going on backwards. 👌
Your hands could use a squirt of WD40!
Always! My wife would like that..
Put a nice 260 v8. 63-4 fiord Throw out the rest
I love those Fiord engines. 😉
But nope, no V8 in this one.
Sacralege ! Don't knock the Ford banger. They were hot-rodded and churning out horsepower long before a mass-produced V-8(and well after).
@@jeromebreeding3302 Thank you! They are much lighter than the V8 and they can put out power enough. 😀
