Thanks. That is actually my video. I was going to try and balance a nickel but I couldn't quite get it to stay, even with the engine off :D  They are a smooth running engine. I have a nice summary of rebuilding the Cadillac Flathead for anyone interested (Word format). It is a combination of Walt Brewer's excellent serialized articles, information from the tank manual, tidbits from this forum and my own experience. You can send me a PM if interested.

You know I was going out and try it with my '39. It made a few ripples but the glass stayed on the air cleaner.  You did a beautiful on what I could see of the rest of the car too.
