  1. this is my Not to Scale drawing . I book matched down to show bottom sticks . Finding wide board will be challenge , I use three know . The pic of door has some leather to take up decades of shrinkage . You can see build up on bottom from trans . Plus all screws are flat head straight blade un-plated . I noted studs in corners for holding matting in place .
  2. It is a less read forum . but great when active . I have original boards in my truck . May not be exactly same a car but has that battery hole and will give some ideas . Board with and lenghts to suit . Pics this afternoon .
  3. Base on reading the DMV site , I stand corrected . I see they no longer call YOM but Vintage and can be of any year to '76 .
  4. I do think they are transferable . I gave mine back to PO's survivor and opted for YOM's .
  5. Did you try DME LLC list by another in Dodge truck section , trans specialist .
  6. May want to just pull head first . Could be just gasket blew out . Also valves can be worked with engine in , from side . I never pull one so not much help there .
  7. Mike very sorry to hear . I do not know if you had the opportunity to take a good respiratory rehab class . But if things settle down i would highly recommend . i live on o2 24/7 , but have damage from Pulmonary Fibrous . In my class where 5 with copd most stopped getting around and did not want O2 . Eight weeks latter all improved enough not to need it for normal walking and activity . Those that continued at gym or home and lost weight continue to progress .
  8. Remflex number 6034 Mopar 4cyl ,and 8068 2bolt flange gasket . Verified.
  9. Look at Remflex gaskets . I just put on on my '31 UT which is same as PA , U . Is one piece all graphite extra thick . Ebay sells I think it was 6034 not sure on last numbers . Also got the manifold to pipe one ,8068 . They come in twos for v8 . Ebay has measurements wrong but Remflex site give correct . They look good . Did not install and test yet . Used a standard Hot Shot brand for int. to exh. gasket . It is thinner but Remflex did not have . Also hand worked my warped manifold down on steel flat surface and sand paper . Then spaced exhaust off paper and brought intake down with gasket laying between to within 0.020 and with compression will be closer . The Remflex compress up to 0.060" = 1/16" in . Look good installed . The other parts you talking about are the ferrules . In early fours, them and other crush-ables where used . Now most do not seam to use the ferrules . i like that they stop gases from directly hitting edge of gasket . i made set for exh . only ; out of two inch copper pipe at .28" . Then cut out edge to fit head recess . Note all seem to be different diameters . The little slit will not matter . If you look at larger truck engines ferules are still used . The intakes look to have to be smaller and have no pressure so opted out . the master parts book said four of same part number . So they must have made the a size to work either . Then who know if manifold was not shaved before . Last think wanted was tight fit and expanding to fight gasket . Did you car run before and what kind of carb do you have ??

  22. Welcome Ed . Other owner of that type car will chime soon I am sure . A couple first questions will be . Is it running and being used now . If so Previous owner may have info with . Second if not was it rebuild ie engine trans and such . More modern lubes can be used on overhauls if compatible to metals ,rebuild or not rebuild with . Lubes are a big controversy . You'll have to read here and pick your poison . Even fuel and additives are discussed in depth . Non-E . Lead , Sta-biles . Good luck . and Enjoy the Ride . Tom
  23. Hello Ron ; Two threads on Grahams passing were posted in January . One was looking for him and another I started on his passing . I had contacted his wife . After about a month , I forwarded a link to both those threads to her . She responded last week . Thankful all the loving support . She said , she wishes Graham could have seen them himself , as sad and hard as they were to read . She was going to forward them to Graham's brother ,here in USA . And gave me her email , as she was emailing me from his .
  24. No , it is not about getting the jets out . It was fact the rebuilder used non factory parts . These parts were build for a different carb model number . In my and BB case , the idle tube seems to been build for model RJH 150 . The jet hole , ie small bottom intake hole is sized to small for the larger DRT209 carb . Not allowing enough fuel to be drawn up to even start . As soon as i opened this hole to spec size . Carb worked fine . There are two other holes in these tube a vent and restriction passage . I wish , I knew the proper sizes they should be . But must be close as it is working . Jon may know if these are the economizer and bypass hole , as those number are listed in spec sheet . ????
