Hey y'all, my names mike and I'm new to the forums, I'm 17 and do allot of mechanic work along with work in builds or projects, yes you guessed it I was raised in the shops my whole life haha, however I'm a muscle and classic car guy, I just love the cars shapes, curves and style, it's just downright sexy. Now, I did some work for a fellow in my neighborhood rebuilding his fathers engine, which was a Plymouth 440 project. As I got done and dropped it in, the bad news hit, he couldn't pay me, so as we stood there, he offered a trade for a 1957 studebaker champion sedan, which I took.Now in that time, I took her back to my place, redid the flooring, put in new replacement sheet metal and redid all the braking on the vehicle, however this is where I got screwed, he tried doing the brake work and there is NO banjo bolt for her, I had even got her running too, I put on a new distributor cap, and factory from the box carter carburetor, and had her running like a champ. I had my hopes so high to drive her that day but sadly I've been trying to lok for one for her but can't seem to find one anywhere does anyone know where? Does Cathcart have any or?. I would be so greatful if someone here could tell me where I can find a banjo bolt for her the guy gave me books on the specs, so here it is for the bolt, any help I get I'll be very greatful for. You can tell I'm just desperate to drive her haha.shes all solid, from Texas.
Bolt specs are: m/c 1/2"-20 x 1-5/32 gaskets are 33/64 and 39/64
The new carb is feeding the motor too much gas, but I'm sure I can adjust it like any other carb like the 350s.
