    Hi,


    Does anybody have a fuel pump actuator arm that allows 2 springs to be used? I have a 3939S rebuilt by ford but it only has one spring on the top side. The arm doesn't seem to have the notch for the second spring to sit correctly?


    If I find an original arm, can it be replaced on the unit by removing the pin without taking apart the unit? I have an original spring but wrong arm to mount it in?


    Let me know,

    Wally

    Brad,


    If you could decipher the serial number on the block that would be the best place to start. Otherwise if you could find the casting dates on the block and heads, distributor, harmonic, etc that would help get things started.


    I would be interested in the motor depending on the dates.


    Thanks, Wallace

    Hi, I just bought a reproduction metal shroud with plastic piece already attached for around $32.00. I ordered it from NPD on their online catalog.


    Is this piece incorrect or would it do for originality purposes. There is a picture of it online in their catalog.


    Let me know if this is not correct.


    Thanks, Wallace

    Hi, can anyone tell me if an original 2 core San Jose 289 Mustang Radiator be rebuilt as a 3 core instead of a 2 core which is the way it came from the factory?


    I'd like to keep it original and keep the original radiator. Even with a new water pump, thermostat and rebuilt 2 core radiator, my temp is running 3/4 of the way to hot.


    One question is whether the fan clutch could be to blame? It is new as well but could it be acting up? It has a spring similar to what is on a carburetor choke on the front side? Can those go bad?


    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Wallace
