I buy most of my period correct electrical stuff from Brillman. If you don't see what you are looking for call. I have bought rebuild kits for my old tractor generators. Site link below.

No idea, I'm not convinced the first one listed doesn't leak.

I have one good one, but for road driving I feel better with a fuel pump.

A few weeks back I met with Frank P's son and got his sedan running, drove it around the storage unit grounds and it runs on the Kingston!

Nice. Both of them on my sedan are broken off, but are intact on the roadster. They were plated, kind of like the door handles (on a sedan) I can take a picture if you want.

Edited my top post to include service info.

Planned on hitting a national show together, but it never happened.
Its amazing how fast your health can change. Don't put off anything on those wish lists, if you have the means to do it.

Member frankp (Frank Pistotnik) lost his battle with lung cancer this last Saturday.

I met Frank years ago when searching for info on my then newly acquired 29 Plymouth. Over the last 9 years he has came over and wrenched, gone with on a parts run road trip and annually would drive one of his 29's over to meet me at my hometown threshing show. (with a collector car corner) We had some good talks and he was a great resource for information. He will be missed.

I will post the live stream information for his service when available for those interested. It will be January 28th at 11am.

Really, you are the only guy that it will or won't bother.

My 2 cents, (coming from someone who hasn't tried to set mine up yet)

If you are strictly looking for reliably, electric pump is the way to go. If i ever do any regular street driving, I will have a hard time parting with it. Especially since I know my tank has rust in it and I don't trust the Kingston to pull through a filter or not plug up with sediment.

If you want to be correct, there is only one way  :) The Kingston's are rare, making the cool factor of having one in service more appreciated by us in the know. I guess i'm saying you're close, don't give up just yet, but its alright if you have to.

The guy who needs to chime in is Frank, 2 summers ago he drove from Minneapolis to Northville Michigan and back on a Kingston.

My replacements are cross drilled. Can't remember which way they installed, its a been a while.

For what its worth mine does the same thing (low or no pressure on cold start) but I consider it wore out. Can't vouch for how accurate the pressure gauge is either. When I plug the vacuum tank fitting my oil pressure spikes and the motor actually sounds worse (like I'm starving the lifters or something) Pressure vs. volume?

I don't what is normal.

Looks like your building a classic hot rod with no fenders, pending a roof chop.

Must feel good to have a fresh engine, my burnouts are still subject to wet grass......

Great to see the project near completion. Looks like you will be ready for summer!

Somebody pay more than 3k so I don't have to go get this thing .....
