Bead rollers
I’m making some progress building the firewall and floor for the 37. I think it would probably be a good idea to roll a few beads in the panels to give them a bit more strength and keep them from oil canning.
I could probably run them by one of the local shops that does HVAC ducting. I’ve also been looking at some of the cheaper ($100-200 range) rollers like Eastwood and Summit sell. I could justify that cost for of one of one of these units and would probably use it occasionally after this project is done.
I was wondering if anyone has experience with one of these cheaper units and if they are just junk or would work OK for occasional light duty work.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
