Looking for a line-boring jig for a model A ford

Post by YOJIMI »

Hello,
I have a line-bore machine , but need the jig used to align the boring bar in newly poured babbitt in the mains in Model A and B Fords, the machine that I have is a Serv-Equip {looks like a van-norman LB3200} I think the alignment jigs from a Tobin-Arp machine will work .These jigs fit into the cam bearing hole and rest on the oil pan rail, leaving a hole to place the boring bar in , or to indicate off of
thanks for looking

I don't have the jig you need, but I do know maybe the best Model T/A machinist in the country. He does them every week and can point you toward what you need. Call Rick @ Strong Engine (509) 891-6461. Tell him Jack sent you.
