RE: Windage tray |

Hey Mel, remember that the windage tray was standard on all CJ's starting in '69. You're right on that oil cooler thing being what should be an obvious hint to the vehicle being an SCJ car which meant it was ordered and built with the drag pack. The other current thinking about id'ing these drag pack/Super CJ cars is to look at the VIN plate to id the rear axle code. If it's 3.91 or 4.30 car, it will be a track lock id with an alpha letter identifying the axle. As opposed to a number that indicates an open rear. I can't remember which one....it seems like a V is one and a ....W is the other. There are many out there who have this memorized by now.
BTW, in my C3AE 427, I cleaned off a shelf of mixed "Big Nut" rods. I've got some C3AE, some C6AE and a couple of C7AE. All were magged, shot peened & polished, re-sized, re-numbered and fitted with ARP's CJ/low riser bolt & nut kit. They'll be swingin' from a C5AE - $ cross drilled, forged steel side oiler crank. Pumpin' C3JE forged Industrial/marine pistons(they have a D shaped dish. Topped with C0AE-D '60 High Performance 352 heads. Ya, I cleaned off a couple of shelves of parts I'd been stashing for a few years. Now I have to get the 2 ton+ land yacht together that this mill will launch. It has been sitting on my engine stand for two full damn years! Full of oil, primed and ready for a fire.
Hey, the Boss Martians have a great web site. Can even download a couple of MP3s of theirs. |
