Gerard,
Yes, I'm refering to a blanking plate. Good picture of
Jim's blanking plate, thanks.
My 1275 will not be that radical. It cleaned up at
.060 over and I'll be running a Kent 266, nothing
special with the head and carburation is as of yet
undetermined. I'm still trying to decide among the
DCOE 45( need a manifold), standard HS2's( need a
rebuild) or a pair of HIF 4's(need a manifold).
The fuel pump pad is not drilled, I'm just trying to
think ahead (like 6 months or so).
So, no problem about drilling and tapping the block
without a blanking plate?
14 or 15" steering wheel replacement?
Any one know the size and thread of the oil pressure
oulet on a 1275 block?
Has anyone on the list installed a fuel pump cutoff
switch??
