1986F150Six

That was movie was so good! Back when Robert Deniro used to be cool lol. The center bezel is sold!

Yep... here is one for a van: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265443153648?hash=item3dcda516f0:g:LIMAAOSw7~JhsRCK

The best I can tell, this item basically disappeared from existence back in 2017. Ford then offered only the entire horn bar assembly including the switch assembly.

Rare and expensive... https://www.ebay.com/itm/304259210117?hash=item46d7431b85&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3AAQAGAAADQHFvFdTfxkyDGbOsPZ6ymAYNzT0sIJ%252BrotACXBSFD%252BVN5rr3u3hNwWVShotzICdJ2k1x%252Fgo6DHmFdLCuGEJU8OH4%252F%252FuGgu89FUN4u8eLSMGqzn8S3bTMCXOLcY%252BWaC%252BwFcyVptc7O8buL5GPIabdyhPPZanmVpVdYPKjFHLaPKf4e%252B6M2uWOatwu7Ez2ofHrnMSwCF7FTT2B%252F3h%252B8DZ0fwmzr6rYe3yKpCm3146orAF6DODEYJ%252FsKqzJHGBf5PFiJE88pM%252FDtx%252FXVw%252Fzhrw1B%252FctxTbwMG9gUwN0iW9jB7mgYO8KkC1CDzBMJeYIswdQYhw5UQbbj4obJIH4GsAqyP%252FM0wOczlDobuS2%252FSJ32EcKO%252FJIavDRffurYgBTir8OkqFHwSpjMXEpiDHZNKyIFW2SNv83PDRAm9BGhoUKZSXT0wDGKtIxYW4%252FwRdavuLU5p%252BCyvCjptsBC%252BJY7GpLNKkbxEC%252BYegnn4AqxweJy50QrIyY1kdz3StZNrjiwYfVZ5RcTuvVeCVoE5OG1E6O5ks%252FMgH3sf4zuN9aOCUqn44kRVLdhyHkRR1BJodzohiAv9CagfJuqjFI9wY2iMoVpDa%252BllaTlmvNGNe3fsb2TIuRwJoI%252FPykJZRtn39D0WFvvLtn8u8VYxEE4A9RUt1e5G2wKAJWYtoJW%252FeqizBPzu7rwKLWrp4SCthW7l4nGggvKIDFGGWejJv9JdJeIGn5Be%252Fvx5h1O6dTV9bXGy0l%252BJrBB6nx9Ukgb9VqjRNJ7YEgSa6ZMscozsdtbRvLaq0M5Lf5ukUuBH%252ByMAE6RJlZDeTYzUoZLDo2kAyoo6JlC1rZPHGd4UXmjITdlZDpjLJKWCRWZJWWwf75%252BBeWlIOWqsBpU1SrU04aiihABHX%252Fxx4ll0kgiy%252FEg6JlyqvNSyUu4laKO%252FPCN0c2xJ4SUz59OLBjED4vDsfi6PUZ1els%252FJmoVRQ2EbUT94%252FNE%252BiG5mQggpNkBj4FGFzQkGXtPxmiDs0Ry3TM0gqSymx1tkp3bu1NrIBhMSiX%252BdzYVibvzAa7xaPeywoBSgH6GFnkuoGLSm5GnUw4etyRA3K03VgNtzfvTYRp7oJbtt2zETdPoh4pQFE%253D%7Campid%3APL_CLK

The mirrors now reside near Houston, TX.

The set of mirrors I have is spoken for. Shane wants them. SOLD! Cory, I will take your suggestion and the money will be placed in the plate at church.

In today's "world", that is a refreshing story, Cory!

The man who did my distributor is named William Ambler. I came to know him on another forum, years ago. His email address was/is billythedistributorman@live.com. I believe he went by WSA111 on the forum.

Ok so between 1200 & 1600 rpm depending on what type motor tune from the factory. So David is just at the sweet spot at 1400 rpm at the speed he travels at. I was sent a text on the spring kit it is Mr. Gasket #925D Now to find one when I get out of work. https://fordsix.com/archive/www.classicinlines.com/DSIIswap.html#Recurve Dave ---- I enlisted the recurving assistance from someone specializing in that. He asked what modifications had been made to the exhaust, what transmission, rear axle ratio, weight and whether or not it had EGR. The later heads [1984(?) and up] were fast burn designed] and much more sensitive to the absence of EGR.

The distributor on the truck described by Gary had previously been "recurved".

At WOT now I would say anything above 1500 rpm I get a little at 1500 rpm and lower, truck will pull from 1000 rpm, but I back out of it not to hurt the motor. That is with vacuum advance disconnected. It was really bad when hooked up. I need to throw a light on it again to get the numbers as I don't remember them but think it is set to 14 BTDC. At 16 BTDC pinging was really really bad. If ibackeddown to 10 BTDC I had to crank it more before it would start / run, now I just tap the key and it fires right up. Dave ---- I looked up the dist. spec in my Motor's Manual for trucks (covers LT trucks also) even that it goes to 81 the dist. info stops at 74 The first year for non-points so I dont know how good it will be for 81? I will list what it listed when I get the time. I also have to check & note what my truck is doing. Right now I have been running with out vacuum advance and it still pings but no where as bad. Dave ---- I found this note from Gary dated 9/14/2014: David is on his way home as of about 6:00 this morning. And, he was wearing a smile. His only concern was whether to get gas here, making this tank lower MPG due to the ~40 miles of testing we did, or getting gas at the end of the range to pull this tank's average up. Obviously there are swings and roundabouts in that, but the fact that he's thinking about those things shows his attention to detail. And, he is very thorough. He pulled receipts from his wallet for the last six or so tanks of fuel and each had notes on it describing the conditions under which the tank was burned. Like "hot" or "75 miles of city" or "all highway". And one notes when he re-installed the chin spoiler, which has made a noticeable difference. So, I'm confident we will get a good and accurate report on his MPG. For the records, here are our notes: Overall Timing On arrival: Initial: 18 degrees Centrifugal: 10 @ 1700 RPM/62 MPH Vacuum:12 @ 14" Total: 40 degrees @ 62 MPH on level ground On departure: Initial: 14+ degrees Centrifugal: 10 @ 1700 RPM/62 MPH Vacuum: 18 degrees @ 14" Total: 42 degrees @ 62 MPH Vacuum Advance: On arrival: 10" = 8 degrees (advance starts here) 12" = 10 14" = 12 15" = 16 16" = 18 (max) On departure (2 turns) 8" = 7 degrees (advance starts here) 10" = 10 12" = 14 14" = 18 degrees (max)

Finding these items is a gift and I enjoy doing it. Thanks, Scott!

I was wondering if NC used a different plate in 1981 but never really looked that much into it. If you dont mind could you post up that 81 plate? I do under stand if you dont want to just like to see what one looks like.
