We started a trivia thread over at another forum and it has been a lot of fun.
Here are the ground rules. It starts with one question. The first reply with the right answer gets the floor for a new question. It continues like that unless, A) the person who has the floor doesn't ask a new question, or B) no one gets the correct answer. In that case, the person with the floor asks a new question. No more than one question on the floor at a time, and discussion/clarification is welcome until the floor is taken over by a new question.
First question: In the 1952 Indy 500, what type of fuel was burned in the record-setting pole-position #28 car? Hint: it won pole position by a full 4 mph over the second-place Ferrari
Bingo!
This is a HKS PISTON RESIZER TOOL. Clamp the piston in the wooden jaws then clamp both of them into a vice. Run the knurling tool up and down the piston skirt while tightening the tool adjuster and the piston is expanded to fit a worn cylinder. Add new rings and back into the wholes they go. Eliminate piston slap. This tool is a little different then other I've seen . Most tools work in a circular motion. This one goes up and down.
yes it is a 57 -283 very rare indeed used on corvette ,competition coupes later in the year replaced the fuel injection on nascar ,some used 1 4 bbl also,,the idea was better fuel distrubition,
your floor Carolina
sorry to take so long I just got home ben working on my truck.
Brian, the item I am looking for is not as obvious as the hood.
496, You are right I should have been a little more clear with the question. I am looking for the 64 only item that most people would probably not notice in the GTO "optioned" Lemans
Actually I had never noticed it until it was mention on a Barrett-Jackson auction.
Ok aparently there were a LOT of one year only 64 GTO items . i was looking for 4 spoke steering wheel, but since there were so many, 496 go ahead with your question.:thumbup:
If you will read through those three links, 1958 was the first year for factory installed seat belts. they were available as a dealer installed option as early as 56, but were factory installed in 58.
