Re: 5 old hemi's

That depends.If you buy an old Transdapt or Offenhauser adapter from ebay,or wherever,you will prob. need it.And you will prob. be restricted to using the orig. 1950's starter. Why not use an A833 Mopar 4 speed?Tom Waters maks the best one imo,and you can use stock sheet metal,later starters,and not...

Re: 5 old hemi's

The "engine mount plate" fits between the engine and transmission.The crankshaft flange
extends out far enough from the rear of the block to use a bolt and nut to fasten the flywheel/flex plate to the crank flange,hence the spacer plate.It also provides a way
to mount the starter.

Looks exactly like the one on my 1955 Hemi.It's off the engine right now,can't
find any part #'s,but it has the DPCD mark stamped on it.

My ROSS pistons were marked on the pin boss A-B-C etc.I think reccomended clearance

Re: hemi? prototype? weird stuff here... need EXPERT HELP

Gasket not required.Just look at the block.If it doesn't have the head bolt bosses
in the upper valley area next to the deck,it's a wedge.

T/F to early Hemi

From personal experiance,I don't like anything Wilcrap makes,and also the opioion of some others.I used Tom Waters adapter,excellent fit and finish,and uses stock sheet metal parts,wich others don't.Pay the extra $ and you will be satisfied.
