Does the stick pop out with the crankcase and valve cover breathers removed? Started with the change in the exhaust system, no other systemic changes?

Does anyone have any supporting pictures, drawings, and measurements for making these for the CD Wagon? I want to make them out of something more durable than cardboard. Thanks

Found insertable part for a missing rear lens on amazon that are retroreflective red led lights. It replaces the bulb, contacts and spring inside the stock shell.

Motorola 309 Radio
Anyone have a universal Motorola 309 radio in a 1950? The radio was produced in 1949-50. The dash was altered. Looks like it might work, took it out while I work on the wiring.
