    To Log or to HP? That is the question.

    If you do not mind the lesser power, the logs will expedite spark plug changes. Have you considered triwyes? Mike

    WTB wiper pivot

    Drill, tap, and install zerks in the pivots. Grease once every 15 years and you will be good to go! Even a seized pivot can be freed up with solvent soak and penetrating oils. Mike

    Can’t say I’ve seen this before… fan related.

    That is the proper way to store these. Mike

    Gear vendor adapter length 727 long tail?

    What, you didn't like my answer? I think it would work fine. Just cut a couple identical flanges and use a piece of sch 40 2 1/2"-3" pipe. If any warp occurs during welding, take it to a machine shop for milling or surface grinding. You might just plan for that and have it corrected...

    Gear vendor adapter length 727 long tail?

    Too short. Probably a truck model. It may be possible to fab a spool that would extend that short unit to the correct length. Are you handy at that? Mike

    need to dig into my welder today (back on topic)

    I'm getting affected by the weather change like everyone else but, we have watered for years. Every row gets one of those black recycled rubber hoses as soon as the seeds are planted and then the boss just moves the supply hose where she deems necessary. I have been gardening since 1978.

    Are you referring to speedie repair sleeve for a worn yoke surface? It is an option, if needed. Mike

    Baer brakes questions

    Did you call Baer to ask? Mike

    Is this normal?

    That means the bearing preload is adjusted with shims so, a seal R&R is easy. Pull the yoke off (probably need a 2 jaw puller) and work around the seal with a small chisel until it pops out, install the new seal, install the yoke and torque to 250#s. Mike

    69 Super Bee EFI Conversion Plan

    Where does the MSD box get the power now? The EFI usually need 12 Volts of clean power. I use a relay for that, triggered by the blue and brown combined. That way a connection to the starter relay (large stud) will provide the power thru the relay to the EFI controller. Mike
