Shirley Hopkins Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I have attached an article that was printed in The Way Of The Zephyr in 1982-1983 on rebuilding the H V-12. This is what we used when we rebuilt our engine 25+ years ago and it is still running strong. Rebuild the HV12.docx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

38ShortopConv. Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi Shirley ,Best post this decade, this will help a lot of viewers. I met you and your husband on the way to Phoenix Arizona for the LZ Convention in 2001? I was with Jerry E in his 40 Continental, you in your 39 LZ Coupe.

detroitsoul Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Thank you for posting this article. I am currently working on restoring my grandfather's 1938 Lincoln Zephyr. After initially failing to get the compression we needed, we decided we needed to do a complete teardown. We started two years ago and a year in is when we discovered all the problems. The crank is machined and all new bearings will be installed. The valves are all in and we are starting on the pistons. We are right in the middle of it now and your post will be most helpful. Thank you again, Sean P. Hobbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
