Does a Twin H engine even need a regulator?

I have checked and rechecked all the settings and adjustments and they are right on. Engine only has 500 miles on it. The car runs beautifully, starts right up and just cruises along. What is the deal with this gas consumption?

Any words of wisdom greatly appreciated.

Can the block be tapped for 1/2" studs while it is in the car or does it have to be disassembled? I also found what looks like a 262 iron head in his stuff.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/151240/coolant-leak-help-needed-please Wed, 28 Sep 2011 09:56:27 +0000 ClassicChevys 151240@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/151232/titan-shipping-missing-in-southern-california Wed, 28 Sep 2011 05:33:04 +0000 Hudsonrules 151232@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/151210/new-pistons-10-for-1937-212-hudson-6 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 23:07:57 +0000 Henk_Brough 151210@/forum/discussions The engine was rather cheap but transport to Holland and customs came on € 700.-
I was so lucky, the engine still have the original pistons.
This pistons I have removed with a lump of hardwood and a big hammer.
Finding +10 pistons is not so easy. The well known dealers from the HET-site started with +20.
A couple of months ago there was a discussion on the HET-site about oversizes and making pistons from bigger oversizes to fit.In general everybody agrees : try to use the smallest oversizes you can.
On E-Bay you can find someone who sells Hudson pistons.
But are these pistons the proper ones. I heard that the best are the ones with 4 rings. Two compression and two oilscapers.
Can someone help me to find the suitable +10 pistons for my engine?
The correct type and where I can get them.
Thank you in advance.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/151182/39-clutch-disc-needed Tue, 27 Sep 2011 07:52:27 +0000 zombiescustoms 151182@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/150956/pistons-for-1937-hudson-6 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 18:20:05 +0000 Henk_Brough 150956@/forum/discussions suppiers tells me they deliver standard or +20 pistons and not the +10 pistons I would like to have. On E-bay there is an advert for Hudson pistons with perhaps the possibility to deliver +10. I remember on the HET-site a discussion about the best pistons for this type of engine. The ones with 4 rings ( 2 scrape and 2 compression )are the best according I understand this discussion.
Please, can you help me where I can possible buy the best +10 pistons for this engine.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/150972/water-pump-seal-needed- Fri, 23 Sep 2011 02:16:41 +0000 Geoff C., N.Z. 150972@/forum/discussions Geoff]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/150896/still-looking-for-parts- Wed, 21 Sep 2011 08:35:21 +0000 30 essex luvr 150896@/forum/discussions

I have a 78 nova, i was driving it the other day and all of a sudden i heard a grinding noise, i pulled in my driveway and the car wouldnt shift to park. i get out of the car and look, and the passenger side wheel had slid out! i jacked the car up popped open the axle housing and i found the clip that holds the wheel in. the teeth on the axle don't look too ground down, im not sure how the wheel came out though. also, i started the engine up and it runs fine, but if i try to shift to park it makes a grinding noise. any ideas? this is my learning car... so any help would be appreciated! thanks so much.]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/150224/36-terraplane-grille-question Wed, 07 Sep 2011 11:47:49 +0000 sshftn 150224@/forum/discussions

How often do they contribute to one's losing interest in thier Hudson or any old car? My wife sold my favorite '49 Hudson sedan years ago while I was at work and I have never gotten over it. I have had many Hudson's to replace that special Hudson with, but I still miss that Hudson.

Last summer one was driven, one just moved from one garage to another and the others nothing was done at all. when they were put away batteries are disconnected, gas stablizer added, washed and waxed, covered with car covers and tucked in. One car gas drained and run dry.

now my mother does not want to sell them or drive them. I recently had to move the 66 SS impala convertible which always starts hard after storage. but I found the white interior covered with mold. I got it started parked it outside with top down, wiped all interior and let it dry outside before putting back in the garage. I really need to clean this up. Car runs terrible I think it never got the gas treatment last year so i think bad gas. Hope to register it ,only 1/4 tank so going to fill tank and drive her. All cars are insured but not registered,
Questions and put some miles on her.
cleaning the mold with just interior upholstry cleaner?
preventing the mold leave a window cracked?
anything more i should do for storage longterm]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/149741/car-quits-why Sat, 27 Aug 2011 09:25:57 +0000 ClassicChevys 149741@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/149632/how-can-i-locate-a-classic-car-with-an-old-vin Thu, 25 Aug 2011 05:19:58 +0000 permanentjaun 149632@/forum/discussions
I still have the VIN number, but have lost the contact information of the guy who bought it off me. I can't use a site like carfax.com because the VIN numbers in 1966 are a different format than todays modern VIN numbers. Thus, carfax thinks the VIN doesn't exist and produces an error message.

Does anyone know how I can track down the car?
