Thanks Nutz.....

Very nice work- you're great at details. Anyone who complains should be given a ride- this will be so much better than a stock binder

**mongocanfly** · 11-19-2018, 06:10 PM

In Alabama we can run vintage plates ...so I had this made...it's embossed like they used to be yrs ago...I think it turned out great...

That's cool! Where did you find that? Can they do any state?

I want a couple personalized "california black plates" and maybe one from NY (where I grew up) to hang on the wall, but all I've been able to find is a "flat print" reproduction.

**mongocanfly** · 11-20-2018, 08:48 AM

Thanks Jesse!,....
I found it at....https://www.licenseplates.tv/?gclid=...saAhB_EALw_wcB

**mongocanfly** · 11-27-2018, 12:01 AM

Thanks Regan,!!

**mongocanfly** · 01-20-2019, 06:05 PM

Thanks grumpy!....

**mongocanfly** · 01-23-2019, 03:04 PM

Summit Claus showed up today with some more goodies...4.56 gears and install kits for front and rear and a phantom fuel pump from aeromotive
Also got the gas tank sealer from Bill Hirsch ....

**mongocanfly** · 11-14-2018, 09:57 PM

I'll be painting the valve covers the same color as the body color red..I also had the IH script made in silver mettalic for them...maybe it'll look ok when done...

Old57 · 11-14-2018, 10:03 PM

That looks really nice, and it should have people trying to figure out what's going on. I like it!

**mongocanfly** · 11-14-2018, 10:11 PM

Thanks old57...I'm curious to see how the IH diehards take it....some of those guys are over the top purists and would tar and feather me for it..(If they could)...but most of those are all 100% scout people..then there are some IH guys that are more accepting though..it seems the trucks get cut a bigger break than a scout...

If you ever saw Aaron Kauffmans show, were he built a scout, the expert they brought in is Jim (a IH scout historian)...he joked about choking Aaron with his beard for cutting up a scout...but he later admitted the scout he cut up was to far gone to restore

**Advanced Design** · 11-15-2018, 02:38 AM

Some really cool work there Greg! Great ideas well executed.

**mongocanfly** · 11-16-2018, 09:48 PM

Thanks tigger!!....

**mongocanfly** · 11-18-2018, 12:26 AM

Thanks Russell...

**Advanced Design** · 11-19-2018, 10:28 PM

Looks great! Can you run that plate?

**mongocanfly** · 11-19-2018, 11:41 PM

Sure can Doug..in Alabama it falls under vintage vehicle tag..you can use any tag with the yr of manufacture....

**mongocanfly** · 11-20-2018, 08:53 AM

And of course after I paid for it I found some coupons for them...https://couponfollow.com/site/licenseplates.tv#C3561318

67ChevyRedneck · 11-20-2018, 11:22 AM

That's really cool, and expensive, but if you run a YOM plate, but it's in bad shape, you can keep the plate, get a "new one"?

Of course, the Cali plates are only "European style". I bet Cali wouldn't let them copy their designs.

**mongocanfly** · 11-20-2018, 11:32 AM

Yeah it wasn't cheap...at $100...but I really hate the look of the flat plates...and it's a lifetime plate..
The meaning behind it is worth more to me than the cost
I didn't notice the Cali plates were different..looks like a couple other states as well..

**Clyde65** · 11-21-2018, 02:36 PM

I just had my YOM plates redone, I’ve had mine for 25 years and they were a little rusty and had a couple bends from the bolts. I believe the restore was about $80.

**mongocanfly** · 11-22-2018, 11:05 PM

the one I got wont rust Clyde...sadly its made of aluminum...who redid your plate for you?

**Clyde65** · 11-23-2018, 10:38 AM

Greg,

This guy did my plate restoration, he did a real good job, he is now in the St Louis area I believe. Took about two weeks.

**mongocanfly** · 11-23-2018, 05:43 PM

Since I finished the tb to 4150 adapter I thought I'd show what I did...I made the adapter from 1/2×6×6-1/2 aluminum plate..bored the center hole to match the tb and drilled all mounting holes..1 of the holes for the 4150 side has to be countersunk..
then i drilled the plate from the side and crossdrilled from the top side for the fresh air side of the pcv that goes to the pass side valve cover..tapped the hole to 1/8npt and installed a 1/8×3/8 90deg hose barb for the pcv.....
then to mount the map sensor I drilled a 1/8" hole thru the adap plate that goes into the 4150 cavity...then I drilled the tb to mount the map sensor in the tb..
Big shoutout to dayj1 for walking me thru this....

**mongocanfly** · 11-23-2018, 05:54 PM

And the pcv valve goes here...

**mongocanfly** · 11-23-2018, 05:25 PM

Thanks Clyde! Always good to have info like that on hand...
