Hi all, I'm joining the Dodge club. We just bought '79 Beaver 25' Class C, we go to pick it up in a little over a week. I'll post pictures once we have it and let everyone know how the trip went. We're very excited to move from a TT to a Class C and eager to play with our new/old camper. It's the perfect layout and has virtually everything that we wanted.

Measure the primaries on your thermoquad, one inch is 800 cfm, 1 1/2 inch is 850 cfm, and the 1000 cfm is marked performance series. As I understand it only these sizes were made. I ended up with a 600cfm because I did not know this at the time and trusted the guy behind the counter. Although I have read on a carb web site that 600cfm is good for engines up to 300 HP. Edelbrock tech support told me they no longer make a direct replacement, requiring an adapter from spreadbore to squarebore. Westtexus 1991 Fleetwood Flair ![]() |

Scruffy5... Try E-Bay, under the automotive section. Search Hub Caps or Wheel Covers. JoeMac ![]() JoeMac1000 73' Minnie Winnie, 360. Still up and running strong. "> A bad day of fishing sure beats a good day at work! "> |

What is the difference between a 16" or 16.5" wheel and "Budd Wheels" of the same size and will I be able to tell the difference by just looking at th ones on my rig?

Mine on the inside of the rim where the tire meets rhe rim it says budd and then a wheel number.I didn't no that until 2 weeks ago until i started shopping for replacement wheels.Budd wheels like mine have a bump on the hub and a line up whole in the rim,what for i'm not sure.Also orignally i guess budd wheels were a two piece wheeland you couldn't use tubeless or radial tires just tube type.Mine have tubeless tires on them and sometime this week new radials put on.hope this helps,if i'm wrong maybe someone can help us both out.by the way Budd wheels was actually a co.and they been out of business for a number of years.

Just a short note to say Hello, I have a 67 travco that has been gone thru top to bottom and runs like a new rig, It now has the 440 with a new tranny and a Dana rear end. Glad to see so many dodge fans out there. I am in Northwest Arkansas. ![]() * This post was edited 03/29/05 10:04pm by travcojim * |
