  1. I got a 1937 Packard loom from those guys with an installed short! Many many hours later it was still a problem and they offered no help.

    From now on I do my own looms.... at often less than 1/3 the price they charge.

    Make your own loom..... save money and learn a few more things about your car

  2. We shipped almost all our stuff to Europe some years ago

    11-40Ft containers :)

    There are folks interested in everything round us. Some great drives too.

    Here is the web site of the guys working on some of our stuff.

    They do a very good job at 20% of the cost of work in the US.

    There are new photos and projects added to their site all the time

  3. You can fit a 501 quench head.

    You have to mill off the front of the head and fit a piece that copies the 327 water pump well at the front.

    My cam card is thousands of miles from me. I'll keep your address and send the specs when I see it next

    EMW manifold is good ICH Webers are the best to fit.

    Petronix will make a giant difference too

    High speed driving. Go to a chilled iron Sprite tappet You must make new pushrods and drill the tappet a couple more times to help oil the cam

    If you find an AC Bristol oil pump It will take a 5-main MGB pump kit but you most make a spacer..... It is REALLY worth the effort

    If you can find a 3.44:1 diff the engine likes pulling a tall-high speed gear

    If you use a Volvo O/D make sure you modify it to let you use 3rd O/D too

    It's a nice round town gear

    The 327 engine can make more power than a 328 BUT the 327 is heavy

  4. Hi

    It's not my site but the guys that are doing cars and trucks. BMW315, Diamond T Panel and '40 Ford are mine. 40 was chopped by Sam Barris and

    is powered by a blowen Ardun.

    The shop is in Hungary Not Poland.

    If you'd like a little power you can get a two carb EMW manifold. I use cams Isky makes special for us... and 34ICH Weber carbs.

    Some 327s came with 328 engines from the factory.... these 327/28s are still rather slow. I have driven one on Elkart Lake about like a 120 Packard very nice

  5. Again ..... My hat is off to those that ttake on and complete a 327. They are a big job compared to the sports cars 315/1-328. These have a simple round tube frame compared to the 327s box sections. The tube frame cars have an easier wood design too.

    Old age and illness has forced me to find guys to do wood and body work.

    Here you can see their efforts on our one off 315/1 Weinberger roadster: http://www.flamingarage.hu/projects.html?proj=42

    This leaves free to do engines and build small parts

    Again guys keep up the good work.

    327s are a joy to drive. Weather and wind tight:) The stop and steer with very little effort
