  4. Tom-----I have a restored PA got all new head bolts from a supplier and the same length do not know what it was from the factory my horn is like yours but on next bolt up a few threads short the horn bolt is no longer it torqued up just fine maybe the horn head bolt is not all the way in block if you pull any head bolts out make sure to put good sealant the bolts go into the water jacket buy the way the horn hangs down
  5. if you like MABLE AT THE WHEEL here are other great Chaplin movies https://video.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?fr=yhs-mozilla-100&hsimp=yhs-100&hspart=mozilla&p=Charles+Chaplin#id=10&vid=1838695c30672afdfcd2397e78062d01&action=view
  6. I have a 36 Plymouth with a rebuilt motor running 10W 30--- has a 10 LB oil curve not to high and not to low --guess I am comparing my PA to that------I under stand that because of the bearings pored in block it is up to the rebuilder and how he line board the mains I am real anal about this stuff which is why I don't buy any more cars
  7. I tried straight 30 and it was no better
  8. I wanted to make sure my PRV was working there is no need for the 60 LBS since in goes down quick with heat the motor has no filter the thing that has me confused if the clearance of bearings and oil pump are good enough to produce at least 60 LBs when cold why can't I keep a pressure when hot above 30 LBs I guess I will check the gage, pump and clearance of bearings though because these are pored in block don't think I am going to pull motor AGAIN
  9. when my motor was cold I adjusted the PCV valve at 45LBS-------considering for recommended pressure is 30 to 40 it was at 60 so I know my oil system can get that high---------------------when motor get HOT can not get quite at 30 ------either pump or bearings or gage-----ANY THOUGHTS ?
  10. thank you all for the advise---------------------------the reason for my post is that my plymouth, which was rebuil by a " PROFESSIONAL SHOP " has oil pressure characteristics I am not happy with Book calls for 30--40 get 60 at start up cold not quite 30 down the road trying to learn the pressure curve on other PAs in the AACA world--------to see if mine needs some investigation or I am OK----thank you all again ------------BR
  11. thank you tom I would like to see more pressure when hot maybe check oil pump in spring
  12. I have running board rubber contact at bobnroman@yahoo.com
  13. Tom thanks for responding----------let me asking you------------what oil are you running,,,when you start the motor from dead cold where is the pressure ??? --------------when hot ...where is the pressure -----------------------thanks
  14. thanks C Carl this car has pored bearings have a 36 Plymouth with bering inserts use the same oil has has a flat temp-viscsity curve-----could it be because of the tighter specs on bearings
  15. right now 10w30 I would think the pressure relief valve would prevent it getting to high took it apart a few times
  16. I was concerned since the specs call for 30 to 40 and that is with straight weight I am using multi grade
  17. Bin posting my progress last few months on my 4 cylinder PA the car is together and running well except this--------------------------when my motor is dead cold my oil pressure is almost 60 when hot not quite 30 running 10w30 oil my 36 plymouth is more constant---- pressure goes down only very slightly the pump has new gears and mains were done in 70s with not many miles checked pressure relieve valve a few times any advise ? if you have a PA how does your oil gage read----------------------thanks
  18. the problem with driving a antique car to much is not getting stopped by police, unless your car looks unsafe, but if you put in a claim your insurer will look at where you were at time of incident and may try to refuse coverage----------------------read policy
