Received my book last week. What a great job collecting and compiling all that data. Wish I would of had it earlier when doing my 40 Ford. Still a great reference for on going projects. Hats off to a great job.

All, Amen on the comments about Mike Kube's book. I received mine about 10 days ago; it's almost worn out! Which leads me to a question, if I may ask. On page 3-44, there's a picture of the accelerator mounting hardware. I was under the impression the "bells" were mounted on the engine side of the firewall / dash panel with the bells' flanges against the dash panel Apparently, the bells are intended to be on the inside the car with the bells' flanges, or bases, away from the dash panel. Basically, they're washers. If I'm correct, what purpose do they serve? BTW, Mike, one of the best pages in your book for me are pages 1-27 & 1-28. That picture and legend contain superb info. Thank you. Barney

Hi Barney, Those special "cup washers" were in fact placed within the passenger compartment. The main purpose of the "bell" was trim out the hole in the insulator and keep it (the bell) from crushing it when the nuts were tightened. In regard to the dash panel (firewall) illustration and respective chart: I'd decided to include that as I have received countless inquiries through the years as to what is proper. It's rewarding to know this is useful to you. Mike "Kube" Kubarth This message was edited by kubes40 on 2-2-21 @ 8:39 AM

Old? If you're old, that means I am as well. Let's agree that neither of us is old. Deal? Mike "Kube" Kubarth
