American Motors Xperimental full frame

[454bug]

Hey Ron,

That's not exactly the plate I was referring to... Although, it's very close. I'm sure Coleman makes a number of different varieties.

Here's a picture I found of the one I was describing. As you can see, Speedway Motors sells the same drive plate. I'm sure Coleman makes them for a number of companies to their specs. It's just like other products where a lot of different companies sell something but they are actually produced by one or two companies... Like the old VCR's...



At least these have the correct 1/2" holes instead of the 5/8" holes in the Moser units. I asked Moser if I could get a custom set ordered with 1/2" hole in them and he told me they weren't really interested in catering to the Pro-Touring market.. They were a race car product company... In today's times, I don't think I would be pushing business away. I'd be looking for ways to increase different market niches...


You see how much beefier it is around the 24-spline axle and hasn't been lightened like the Moser one...



My asphalt circle track buddy said if they were to break from some shock load, they crack in one of these areas that have been lightened. I know we will give these things much less abuse than the racers but it may be an alternative for you... The two countersunk holes for the set screws should be located correctly but probably wouldn't be a big deal to make some new ones if you had to...

JUST SOME MORE INFO TO PONDER!!
