Or you can just buy my 550 (which is in good running condition except for a
missing headlight.)
But I don't know how close to Upper Michigan you are.

Let's see...1200 lbs, 400cui... sounds more like a WoO sprinter. Still. I'd be
using a Vette steering box. I hope the small block didn't start out as a 400. A
384 from a 350 goes much better. The rod angle at 90 degrees of crank is too
acute on a 400. Just pickin' nits.

Thanks Dennis, The Corvair box is actually for a T-Bucket Roadster

I fixed the leak!! I took the leaky Corvair steering box out of
saddle bag. I put the leaker in the saddle bag to take it to Socal
speed shop in hopes of getting a rebuilt box, no such luck. I failed

More details please. How many miles ? Rust in the tank ? sat how long ? Front

I don't know about needing to get the "Magic Smoke" back into the wire. In my
experience, there seems to be an infinite supply of the "Magic Smoke" available
- just hook up the wires incorrectly again, and like magic, there's more

Dennis,
Ok, I'm really bummed. The oil cap I tried to order is unavailable
from my initial source. I'm still looking but I'm beginning to doubt
I'll find such a critter. Do you have any suggestions for good salvage
yards that might have stuff like this.
While I was waiting for the oil cap to shi
Hi Stanley,
Thank you for your offer. I actually can do better than a sample. I
have the actual sizes. The large intake to cylinder o-ring is 33.7mm X
2.6mm. The small oil o-rings are 5.6mm X 1.9mm and 5.5mm X 1.4mm.
These of course need to be impervious to oil and fuel. I found some

Electronics actually don't run on water at all, they run on "Magic Smoke".
When you hook up the wires incorrectly and release the magic smoke, the
electronics cease to function. It's thought to be impossible to get the
magic smoke back into the wires after such an event.

Cheaper and better than tearing your carbs off the bike and ripping'em apart
and sticking little pins in all their holes.

If you put a full can (16 oz'er) into any motorcycle gaz tank it'd be over
kill. But if you got serious problems U might try one 16 oz can for one tank
full. And then when the issue is resolved, adding 1oz per gallon in future
fill-ups will keep it running clean forever and no need to get sill
AAAhhh! that's right. Only read it once very quickly as I scanned the page.
But it is the blinker that's the concern. And they have relays that will fix
the blinking issue for LED's.
