jimnohio Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I sure could use a picture of this engine done. I find the pics on the net are all of the model kit engine, and its not quite like the AMT Willys Van engine. I need visual help! LOL My 1st wire/plumb job! Thanks in advance.

jimnohio Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 Try this site: http://www.geocities.com/spookytruck/SOHC.html Thanks, that helps. My problem is that I have had GM's all my life...the distributor is supposed to be in the back! LOL...I don't quite understand the fuel/magneto set up, and none of those have the same as the kit. Maybe I'll copy those pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfhess Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) No, the distibutor is supposed to be in the front, so you can see it and work on it easily....... Edited May 26, 2009 by sfhess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL...I don't quite understand the fuel/magneto set up, and none of those have the same as the kit. Maybe I'll copy those pics! Distributors should always be in front...better airflow! here are a few SOHCs....wiring is the same even on the models...and fuel is fuel...tank to pump to carb(s) And guys please put your real names somewhere..forum rules Edited May 26, 2009 by MikeMc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84vanagon Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 The Willy's panel was a re-bodied Malco Gasser coupe kit. The Malco gasser was a very famous car in it's time. There should be many pictures on Google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
