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!)

Ok.. new to this Forum.. I just paid for EV8 three year membership. I have a 1947 Ford Fordor Sedan with a inline 226 Six Cylinder motor... When I first got the motor running in 2016, I removed the ARVIN aftermarket heater... I am in the process of restoring the heater, core is good, holds pressure, no leaks, I cleaned up & repainted the components.. But I can't find a replacement 12 volt blower motor.. Early Ford Store in San Dimas had the large style, large shaft motor..
I need a motor with a 1/4" inch diameter shaft, and the 1/4" inch attachment bolts that are approximately 2 1/4" inches apart.. I have not tried C & G as of yet.. they list a universal motor with 1/4"inch shaft.. but at a cost of $185.. Any other sources out there?

Also post your question and search the archives on HAMB (https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/forums/the-hokey-ass-message-board.5/). I am also interested in the answer so post if you find something.

If you have a generator repair facility near you, ask them if they can repair your old motor. If there isn't a generator repair facility, Google "small electric motor repair near me". Contact the shop before you send the motor in for repair.

I don't know if you want to have an original style motor, but Grainger lists a 12v motor Model #3LCH7 with a 1/4" shaft, 2 5/16" c-c 8-32 studs. I dont know if this will fit your needs, but a good place to start.

Charlie, I'll answer the question here. The motor I used when I converted my heater to 12 V was purchased from Dennis Carpenter. The part number is B6A-18527-B. The info on the motor itself is, Fasco, 12V, 2807-406-074. The motor has a 1/4" shaft and comes with an adaptor to change the shaft to 5/16". In 2003 I paid $100.75.
