What if the fitting gets a coat of neverseize? Does that help stop the electrolisis? Say, isnt that women do to their hair? Wierd.
Anyway, what about tracking a 42 crossmember? Rare I suppose.

the 5 speed ones are, but you can also trim down a 5 speed 60 crossmember to fit.
I have a couple 4 speed ones, but they don't have the dip in them for that front driveshaft.
As for the neversneeze...can't hurt. just don't use the copper type, copper and aluminum is one of the truly nasty combos.
aluminum boats with pennies in the bilge used to be a nightmare, but now pennies are made of zinc..and hopefully they'll cease to exist soon.

well, did you get it to fire? or still fighting with the primer pump?
You can swipe the one off the spare 3b if you come up today, who knows it might work...but I'd grab one of those bosch dealio's for sure.

I got the engine running... just need to add some fenders... and a rear drive shaft...
I have the circular flange so I should be able to just drill some new holes where I want them... Going to add some flexpipe exaust as a temporary thing too...

A couple of pictures...
course it runs. it's a 3b, not some gay freakin 2f or worse, a 350 that needs spark plugs and points and all that other ridiculous crap to run....
try not to sink the damn thing in a river on your first test drive ok?

I need to do some other things before first test drive... a drive shaft would help
as for the river I should just invest in a snorkel I think....

Did you end up ditching the EDIC? I could use the relay, as I seem to have hidden mine, somewhere over the last couple years.

Thats the beauty of a 2F, when its trash go get another for $100.
I was waiting for a 2f guy to pipe up at my little jab at the gayness of sparkplugs...
3b's aren't far behind these days...( unless you're in the states or ontario...)
