Good old Massachusetts has always insisted on passenger side lower corner Dwight.

God bless.

Wow!… Very interesting!

Yes a ‘name’ blower rebuilder said 5 lbs……using stock tension spring on arm.

Seven is a tad high!

With a factory ‘top mount’ Paxton Supercharger installation (ala R2 Hawk), belt slippage usually begins to occur at a blower pressure of …?… psi. 1) three….2) five …..3) seven….or….4) nine

That’s where Studebaker put it… but you may have an issue putting it there if your State requires a vehicle inspection sticker be placed at that location!

Wow! you went through heck on that lower shock mount…. but kept swinging until you resolved the issue… Well done!!

I use a really thin oil or a bit of ATF on the moving parts

I run the plastic headlamp covers on my ‘63 for general use, and save a set of NOS glass for?? The plastic covers are the same diameter as the glass… although the original glass covers may be thicker. The gasket should fit around the circumference of the cover. With the four holes in the gasket lined up with the four slots in the plastic (or the glass) covers. The gasket should not be on the outside of the chrome retaining ring.

Folks seem to really like the newer fuel injection bolt on fuel injection systems.. But if a worn out original Carter AFB is driving you crazy, a brand new Edelbrock 500 or 600 CFM carb is a drop on and hard to beat!

I was speaking about the early Stude type SW tachs…. Not sure about later ones!

Nope Mel… has to come apart… but that isn’t too difficult if you place it face down on table and carefully pry the crimped down outer chromed retainer up…. Then the retainer, seal, and glass can be removed.

I’m convinced… pedal location is FINE!!

Yes… that was the magazine road testers results!
