I've been eyeballing that.........go good with my Offy valve cover. :D Anything over $500 would kill me with cost to get it home. :frown:


the body on that one looks to be in great shape, but I have never seen so much surface rust :eek:

OK, so the engine for project Two Speed is at the machine shop, and I was thinking of things to do "while I'm in there" to give the old 135 some help, nothing too extreme...keep in mind I have to stay with the original block so the 1FZFE is right out.

I have a press on crank single pully with vibration dampener, any help? I also have one of those transition year F145s sitting around, it has the later style int/ex ports with the external oil system for the rockers, and it has the "rare" "performance" int manifold...oiling mods?

I don't know, seems like the slippery slope, it's still going to be a 135, just wondering...what would you guys do to make a "sleeper 135"...if anything?
 
I dunno Phil, can you just use a later tapped crank and pulley? Definately do something with the valve seals the little o-rings don't seem to do much at all. Mark A. may be some help on both, not sure what your options are.

that looks like an offenhauser intake for a 235. i have seen the same think on a friends GMC duce and half that has a 235 that has some interchangeable to the TLC 135, 145, 155.

you can still buy them for 230 or so.
 
The head that we put on A-1's (from C_N) came with dual valve springs and real valve seals. SOR's kit came with replacement seals. Maybe this is a newer 135 thing?

No, it's one of those damn previous owner things. :D Can't remember what I used for seals on that head. I do remember the top of one of the valves breaking off though..............forcing me to remove the head. :rolleyes:
 
there is a pic of the setup in your? gallery. The one that Yankee Toys hosts. It would be dual Aisins. I have half the linkage for you. Just need some time to round it all up.
