[FC] 140

[David Ziegler, III]

Should not be any insulation on a Rampside, it was only on the vans.

> One more on the 140/FC thing. I drove my 110 many, many miles and then dropped a valve seat in it. I replaced the heads and drove a long while on the "new" deflashed heads.Soon after that I bought a 140 /PG combo and was very impressed by the power, so after selling both of these '65 cars, I rebuilt a "new"  140 motor, and began looking for a Rampside to install it in. I deflashed the heads then sent them to have new guides, keepers, and valves, plus springs and have the seats staked etc. at a shop that specialized in air - cooled motors. It should run well, but I figure if the 110 drops seats as well, I might as well enjoy the power the 140 has for the small amount the truck will be driven. I will not replace the insulation under the engine cover;- that looks like a sure way to have something bad sucked into the fan.
