My clipper is finally ALIVE!! Almost a year and a month later I closed the hood today on a sweet running 440.

I just need to road test a little and then find some new tires. I did find a set of (6) 16" rims that fit...well...They aren't "coined" like the originals but they fit nicely, I think they are ok? Anyone know what size tires should I look for now in 16" that equal about the same height and width as original?

Almost time to go fishing!!!!

   Hey there Max---  the distance that you have from the headers to the fuel line sounds great!!!

    I measured the distance from the fuel line to the stock cast iron constipators and I got a whole    1" 3/4...........

Needless to say I bought some fuel line and rerouted it ... At least I can feel better....

Max Was that you at the campground  just past three bears, past pitman road?

[maxcamper]

Nope..not me. It must be one of the other ones up here. I think Alaska might have an American Clipper importer somewhere..lol.

I'm parked in a nice quiet spot in Butte with a great view of Pioneer Peak.

Getting ready to re-do ALL of the water lines in this rig! I have been patching up leaks for years now. I went down to Mobile Trailer Supply in Anchorage and figured out what I need to run all new PEX line and Sea-tech fittings for everything and be done with it.
