FORUM RULES: Users agree to these Rules when using Forum.

The site administrator reserves the right to change the terms and conditions of the user agreement without prior notice to the user. It is the responsibility of the user to regularly review the terms of this agreement.

The user agrees to the following terms:

All information that you provide to us for your membership is correct.
You will not use your membership to spam, harrass, or exploit other members in any way.
Vulgar, Abusive, Racist and Sexist Language will not be tolerated.
Commercial-type sales postings will not be allowed.
No mass posting or flooding of the boards is allowed.
No Advertising of parts or cars; no Ebay or business/commercial ads (please use the "Classified" for ads Wanted or For Sale).
VIEWING MULTIPLE TOPICS ON SCREEN: You can choose to see more than 10 Topics at a time ... Log In and choose "Preferences" from the top bar on the Forum page. Scroll down and Change the "Default Topics Returned" parameter to 25 or 50, and save the changes. Since this setting is stored in your browser 'cookies' (if enabled), it seems to use that stored value even if you are not logged in. So, if you use a PC that you haven't logged into the forum from, the setting still seem to remain at the default.
EXTERNAL PHOTO LINKS ON FORUM: You can still use external photo links in your posts on the new forum. They follow the rules of any link in that they have to have the URL link qualified down to the full image file name (example: .jpg). The links will open in a new browser window, the same as an uploaded image attached to a post. Since an image attachment to any post does not display inline with the post, the results are the same. You can use multiple external links within a post. This link is from photos on a site from Don Clink's 'Deuce@75' albums:

http://donclink.com/deuce_75_1/images/dscn2950.jpg

Using links from photo sites such as Photobucket can help in "size" issue with uploaded attachment files. For best viewing in web browsers, photos should be around the 800x600 pixel range, and probably not more than 1024x768. Most cameras today store HUGE jpg image files, as the default settings are in the 7, 8, 10, and 12Mb image sizes. The image files that are then attached are very large, and the browser can't display the full image size without using the scroll bars. Use the re-sizing functions of your photo editing software to reduce the image to 800x600, which reduces the file sixe and the image load time in the browser. Don uses Google's free Picassa3 software, which is an excellent photo management product. All of the photo albums of the Deuce, Grand National, and Auburn that are links on the NORG site were built using Picassa's web creation functions. And it's free? (THANKS to Don Clink for the info!)

I can not help with a photo of a 36 manifold but here is a 35 intake that appears exactly as the one in the 35 restoration book (no extra knobs ) the circle with the number 3 is cast into the top of the manifold in front of the carb riser.

Hey Stroker,
The aluminum valve chamber cover was phased out during the '39 production. They were actually mixed in production (randomly) with cast iron. 1940 - NO aluminum intakes.

There are a couple of dozen generators shown in the green book. If I had a 35-36 Ford, I'd opt for a two brush type with a regulator, and a generator that allowed the use of a standard size belt. I am not a purist, of course, but unless you are trying to make it "as Henry built it", why not use the better system ? I believe that most owners want a car they can drive and trust without continual fixing and adjusting.

40 Coupe, Yes there is a circled #3 with a #1 in front of that. There's also another "knob" beside the fuel pump mount. On the underside of the intake the casting tag # is 1-28.

By 40 coupe's reckoning, (which I'm certainly not questioning), it looks like lightflyer1 could use 39 STD's manifold on his gorgeous 35, and DEAN333 needs to find
one that looks exactly like the one pictured on lightflyer1's post. I never knew the
subtle differences between a 35 and 36 manifold (valve cover) until now, as my family only owned a couple of 35 trucks during my lifetime. I'm still not sure when the aluminum manifold was phased-out. My 38 came with a Chandler-Groves carb, and an aluminum manifold when new. I've heard that the aluminum manifold was replaced with the cast iron manifold shortly thereafter. Does anyone know when that was? The "mystery manifold" that Super posted a photo of is obviously of post 36 vintage, but obviously would bolt-on any flathead through 1940. In 41 cars, the Gen mount was beefed-up to hold the infamous fan mount bearing while the trucks still mounted the
fan on the crankshaft. So.....when was the last application for the aluminum manifold (valve cover) that was standard flathead topping dating from 1932? Perhaps
I need a "Manifold Spotters Guide".
