Hello. Any assistance for a lead on an engine for a 1930/1931 Studebaker Straight 8 would be greatly appreciated. It is for a 1930 Studebaker Commander but the 1931 engine could be workable as well. I will also be posting in the Studebaker Drivers Forum. Thank you in advance for any information/leads.

Continental 6T engine in a 1922 case... we need one piston. Pictures attached... These measurements are done with a tape measure - so close, but not 100%. If we can find something close, we can verify the fine details. 4-1/2" tall, 3=3/4" diameter, 1-1/8" hole with 2-1/16 above hole to top and 1-5/16 below hole to bottom. Any leads or options will be greatly appreciated!

Hello, looking for a correct orange , black and gold oval Purolator sticker. I have only found the decals for the Packard and this is not what I need. I did find a picture of the decal I am looking for. Hoping this helps! Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

1923 Jordan, Continental Special Vertical L-Head, 245.6 cu inch, leak at rear seal on Continental engine crankshaft I learned some Continental 6-cylinder engines of the 1922 - 1924 era do not have a rear oil seal, but have a flanged crankshaft that throws oil forward into the oil pan. I think my engine is a Continental Special Vertical L-Head, 245.6 cu inch. I read that on these engines, the cap is not slotted, and there no way to attach an "O", a gasket, or rope seal. How can we fix the rear main seal leak? Were there any updates to this system?

1922 Dodge Tourer Top Saddle Brackets
jpistorius replied to jpistorius's topic in Dodge & Dodge Brothers
Thanks, Mark, I found that both of our saddles are incorrect. One is stamped 530, the other 420. I would gladly sell them but need to find the #418 pair. Any suggestions are appreciated. I have posted on the Dodge Brothers' Facebook page and looked on Ebay. Will keep hunting... -

1922 Dodge Tourer Top Saddle Brackets
jpistorius replied to jpistorius's topic in Dodge & Dodge Brothers
Thank you for the reply! Page 2 of what supplier catalog? Attached are photos of the 2 brackets we have. The one on the driver's rear latches together, but the one on the passenger rear seems to be missing something to keep the latch closed. They are similar but not exactly the same.
