What's your location?

Nice truck! Love those old Fords. Nice score on the engine as well.

Where are you located? This forum has members from practically everywhere on earth.

Also, nice collection. There are a couple I would be interested in if you aren't looking to sell them as a whole.

Could i ask, when i look at some of the old posts, i see replies from people but their post appears to be blank, why is that please..... i assume that is why some helpful info is lost/missing?

This forum has had some ups and downs over the years. There have been a few members who opted to leave and wanted their data scrubbed from the site as well as a couple who opted to "take their ball and go home" and scrubbed their own data in the process leaving a lot of posts edited blank. There were also some issues when a huge photo hosting site, photobucket, went from free hosting to an extortion model for hosting which degredaded a lot of posts.

Thanks so much for sharing those files !!, i just knew there must have been more info available but years of asking Google only brought me the standard engine manual, im very grateful.

You are quite welcome, sorry I didn't get them to you sooner. Technical information on these engines is a little thin as they come from an era when most of that knowledge was passed one person to the next instead of being published.

How funny you have seen our YTvideos, small world eh?....... here is a small video, not public, of the milking parlour i built and is now working .... https://youtu.be/JSWc9z6WGc8

It really is. Thank you for the video. The parlor has come a long way and looks fantastic! Good to see everyone is doing well. I hope you guys will continue to put out an update video from time to time. They were always really well put together and Molly does such a good job with commentary. I imagine you guys are busy as can be these days.

It keeps the fuel pump tappet from rotating so that the roller stays properly aligned on the cam lobe.

You talking about the one pictured below that runs parallel to the bore? Every original cam I have seen has had one. May have been something that changed early on in production.

I just looked in my original parts book and they do show the pin installed in the sleeve in the illustration buy do not list it seperately. There are 4-5 parts in a CS that were sold as assemblies from Lister.

I you click on the "Attachments and other options" icon under the text box when typing a message it should open the option to attach files. There are some limits on file size and type though. I am attaching a photo for test purposes. Let's see how it goes.

Looking good. That's a lot of bling!
