Engine-External (five items)
Product Name: Intake Manifold
Product Description: This product is a 600 cfm (cubic feet/minute) intake manifold, non EGR. It is made of aluminum and designed to fit a 350 cubic inch, small block Chevrolet engine. When selecting an intake manifold, it is important to match the intake manifold cfm to the carburetor cfm for maximum performance and efficiency. Many of the parts stores can help with matching the cfm of the intake manifold to the carburetor.

Product Name: Carburetor
Product Description: This is a four barrel carburetor, with 600 cfm (cubic feet per minute) to 850 cfm capability. The secondary barrels are operated mechanically. There is an electric choke, an overdrive kickdown bracket and adjustable idle mixture screws. It also includes a choke adjustment and two vacuum ports for the PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) system, power brakes or other vacuum needs. Make sure to follow all directions from the manufacturer when installing the carburetor especially when making the necessary adjustments.

Product Name: Brackets, AC and Alternator
Product Description: There are many types of brackets for a small block Chevy engine for the air conditioning compressor bracket and for the alternator bracket. On this engine, one key factor when ordering these brackets, is the type of water pump being used. It must be determined if the water pump is a short water pump style or a long water pump style. The short water pump, when installed, is closer to the block while the long water pump sits about an inch away from the engine block. The difference will cause the water pump pulley V belts to be in different positions. This causes the brackets to be designed differently for each type of water pump.

Product Name: Radiator
Product Description: This is a specially built aluminum radiator that was manufactured to fit the space available on a 1937 Ford Wild Rod. After providing the clearances to the manufacturer, the radiator was built to include the air conditioning condenser (see arrow), the position of the radiator cap, the position of the intake and output tubes, and the location of the mounting bolts. A wooden model was first constructed to establish the exact measurements needed. Once these measurements were established, they were given to the radiator manufacturer. They then designed and built the radiator to a set of specifications for this vehicle only. Also, it was important to note the angle and position of the radiator cap as well as the output tube of the radiator to the water pump. Building the wooden model helped
determine these specifications.

Product Name: Radiator Overflow tank
Product Description: This overflow tank (see arrow) is used on the cooling system to allow coolant to flow into this tank as the engine heats up. As the engine heats up, the coolant expands. As the engine cools down, the coolant contracts. The purpose of the radiator overflow tank is to keep air from getting into the cooling systems when the coolant begins to cool down and the coolant begins to contract. Any air in the system will produce rust and possibly damage the seals and bearings in the water pump. During operation, as the engine heats up and pressure increases to above the radiator cap pressure setting, excess coolant passes through tubes and into the bottom of the overflow tank. The cap on this tank is not sealed and therefore, pressure inside this tank stays at atmospheric pressure.
