Any and all help will be >appreciated. I expect the 59 means a 1939 to 1948 engine. According to the "Beginning Frame/Engine Serial Number" chart on page 21 of Tex Smith's Flathead book, 4717202 would be somewhere in the 1939 year. Of course one big clue is how many studs on the engine (21 would be 1938 or earlier, 24 would be 1939 or later) and where are the water outlets (middle of the heads would be 1939 to 1948; at the front of the heads would be 1949-1953).

Hey guys, You must have misread my email. I have never been embarrassed about anything Ford did, (well, maybe the Edsel and the time the old man cheated on his wife) I was commenting on someone else who said they were embarrassed about how Ford was doing in truck racing. Not me!!!! My, my... I'll bet this is how divorces begin.

The noise is similar to the noise that you would hear when two musical notes do not harmonize. Its kind of like a beating sound but a little stronger. Friends that hear it say it sounds like an exhaust leak. It is loudest when the engine is cold, although you can still hear it under a load at times. Any ideas would be helpful.

I forget the name of the product but I think it was about $18 per gallon. I had scoffed at Por 15 ads for years, but decided to try it due to positive remarks from this list. I must say I was more than pleased with the result. The stuff is tuff as nails. ray C - -- On Wed, 12 Jan 2000 18:58:13 Larrykvet wrote: >I am down to the frame of my project now-I am planning to sandblast and >rustproof- I have been reading about por15 etc I was in home depot and asked >about rust proofing before painting and I bought a product called ph- >ospho-ric plus- they told me that you paint this stuff on tthen it turns >black and then you prime over it- this stuff only cost 13.85 per gallon and >looking at the label appears to be phosphoric acid- is this usable in place >of the more expensive products or just hype? anyone know about this? >== FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info http://www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html > Angelfire for your free web-based e-mail. http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.angelfire.com == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info http://www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2000 23:14:29 -0800 From: "Ray Cardogno" Subject: Re: FTE Pre61 - Re: rust proofing I have used a few different brands of "rust reformer" type things and none of them were nearly as tough as the por 15.
