[A/S] couple of questions...



i have a couple of questions:
1) anyone know the formula for translating engine-size from litres to
cu.in.s? e.g., what's a 5.9 litre engine, in cu.in.? what's a 360 cu.in.
engine in litres?

2) i'm re-building this '49 Clipper... from the ground up. i plan on doing
something like what bud cooper did with his... a new frame, dura-torque
axle... but retaining the center 'pipe' and original hitch for the original
'look'.  having wrestled with the bellypan and decomposing fibreglas, and 51
years of accumulated schmutz, i'm thinking of providing undercarriage access
by using removeable floor sections, so that i can add/move any
wiring/plumbing/tanks from inside the trailer. has anyone else done this?

thanks!
