Re: U-boat 13 Meter

Prowersfish is correct. If the hull was not damaged then there is no way for the water to get into the coring.

Re: dripless shaft seals

It should be noted that in most every Trojan Model the shaft seal hard hose acts as a intermediate bearing.

If asked we never recommend replacing the shaft seal with any type of dripless packing that has a flexible hose.

Re: 1976 Chrysler 318 CW and CCW distributors

Both distributors are the same. The clockwise 318/360 has a collar which keeps the distributor drive gear in place. Without the collar, it would ride up and wear the cam gear as it would not be fully engaged. Engine direction is always from the flywheel. Setting on the drive looking forward. An auto...

Re: Considering a 1986 F27 but...12MPH top speed?
