Subject: FTE Pre61 - Y block dual exhaust manifolds

Are these the infamous RAM TUBES, or are they just normal flow manifolds,
with outlets changed to be conducive to dual applications? They are
EDB 9430 A left side
and
B9A 9430 A right side

any help? thanks, Greg

I've installed new rubber mounts. The motor is centered in the frame, It's
the intake mount that's offset.

Mid fifty has the axle and install parts you are looking for, page 118 1998
catalog.
2.5, 3, 4 in drop along with King pin set. This one was a simple request
glade I could help.

Thanks for your reply. I would prefer one that works, FM is not important or
necessary I need the knobs to in restorable condition or can be purchased
from vendors. $150.00 is well within the range I am willing to spend. My F1
has been restored to a 50's hot rod with all the original parts, therefore
originality is the most important object. I can send you a check as soon as
you need. If you wish to call, my day time number is 561-842-3999 evenings
561 744-1398.

Thank you

I picked up a radiator at a swap meet for my 52 F-1. I took it to a shop
and had them go thur it, It checked out fine. I sold my old one that leaked.
Now when I went to install my new stainless steel upper hoses, I find that
the top neck on the radiator is bigger then an inch and a quarter. Any Ideas?

Only one choice, have new connections soldered on. That's not hard or
expensive.

Anyone know where I can find an OEM style wiring harness for a 1960 f-100. I
know that there are these after market style painless wiring kits and stuff,
but I would like to stay with the original style harness.

While we are on the subject of door locks, my 52 F-3 has a outside key lock
on the passenger side, but nothing on the drivers side. Is there a secret on
the '52's for locking the driver's door that I don't know about?

All you have to do is lift the inside handle so it is level or
something like that. Just move the handle opposite way that you do to
open the door.
