John Karal: Ford Model A Transmission
Dis-assembly and re-assembly of the Ford Model A Transmission. Brought to you by the North Jersey Regional Model A Club.
After rebuilding several Model A engines, Burtz identified their many weaknesses, including the materials they were originally made of. By inspecting engines modified for oval track competition and Bonneville speed record attempts – plus a few used to power aircraft, where reliability means the difference between life and death – Burtz developed major design improvements.
