  ListThat's 
  funny.  Around these parts, the itch seems to start around 
  October.That's when the temperature returns to levels conducive to 
  seriousthrashing.  The only time I can even think about it now is 
  after 9:00 PMwhen it goes back below 100.  And who the heck wants to 
  get up at 4:00 AM onweekends to get some work in before 10:00 when it's 
  usually over 100 again.Such is the bane of the low desert 
  southwest (in summer).Darrell> Every year around this 
  time I get the itch to get another Chevelle.  IsoldMan, that 
  itch...it drives me crazy about this time every year too!! Now, Ihave a 
  Chevelle, but the itch is get have it on the road all the time, andstart 
  digging through the catalogs of the stuff I've wanted to get for itfor 
  years. You know, its that "95% restored phenomenon"and I've had itfor

RE: [Chevelle-List] Horse Power

2001-06-28 Thread David Studly



It 
depends on what you are starting with.  When I first got my '70 back in 
1991, it had a stock 2-bbl 400 small-block with a single exhaust.  
Upgrading to a factory dual exhaust (2.5") using Dynomax mufflers took me 
from a 16.0 in the quarter, down to a 15.2 with no other changes.  
This was using manifolds, not headers.  A good exhaust system (2.5" or 
bigger) is always a good addition.

At the bottom of this email (along with EVERY

gives VERY simple and conciseinstructions for unsubbing.Basically, go to 
the link and enter your email address that is currentlyreceiving the posts

server (NOT theposts submitted by everyone).Read this email and reply to 
it. It is ESSENTIAL that you reply as thedirections describe in order to be

a$$holes from foolingaround with other people's settings/etc.Once 
you finish this, you will get 1 more email telling you that you are nolonger

The insulating plate will probably do the trick but check the routing of
your fuel line also. It sometimes can be to close to a header or water hose,
etc & cause the same problem. If the car is not running hot at all the
problem is very likely in the fuel delivery system.

 Hello

 Where is the best place to get a radiator for a Chevelle I just installed a 
350 the car originally had a 307.  I believe I'm supposed to use a 3 row 
radiator will the shroud that was on the 2 row radiator mount on the 3 row?  
Also should I change the clutch fan or use the one that the 307 had?  If 
anyone has done this project can you please advise me as to which parts to 
use I'm not sure which parts to use.

You should use 3" only if you have 400+hp according to the experts.
2 1/4" will get you more low end and better response than 2.5"
off the line, but not as much top end...

Try DAP contact cement.  You have to put some on both the headliner and the

I think these are lurkers that want to gleam info without

emails they'll get...then they freak out when they get 100 or so in a day. 
Most of them seem to let it get so bad that they freak out on the list. If 
they would just take the time to read a little before they sign up for 
things, it wouldn't happen nearly as much. 

These people rarely contribute or they'd know about how things are done. 
They also don't think to just ask one person what's up...thereby 
concealing their ignorance and idiocy. They have to get really riled up 
and show everyone their wadded panties.

It will never get any better as there will always be stupid people who

That's funny.  Around these parts, the itch seems to start around October.
That's when the temperature returns to levels conducive to serious
thrashing.  The only time I can even think about it now is after 9:00 PM
when it goes back below 100.  And who the heck wants to get up at 4:00 AM on
weekends to get some work in before 10:00 when it's usually over 100 again.


Such is the bane of the low desert southwest (in summer).

I would be inclined to treat these pieces the same as any exterior paint.
Wait 30 days for all of the solvents to fully evaporate from the painted
surfaces.  Waxes and protectants can trap solvents under the surface of the
paint film which is known to cause the finish to dull irreversibly.  This is
also known as die back.

Whitney in our Cutlass, and I am having a terrible time getting the vinyl to

Hey everyone,

I’ve been on this list for over a year now but for the past coupla months my
mailbox has been really backed up with 500+ messages, it doesn’t make much
sense to respond to a thread that died a month ago.  Anyways, I’m doing up the
interior on my ’72 and have a couple of questions for you guys.

1.  I am doing a bench to buckets swap and would eventually like to put in a
console or at least a B&M or Hurst floor shifter (the car is an automatic).
Is there any welding or floor pan modification I should do now while I am
painting it and it’s easy to get at?  The console is a little bit out of my
budget at this point but if anyone has an old one to sell let me know.

2.  Anyone find replacement moldings for door panels?  The set I’m recovering
is good except for that silver tape and I was considering painting in silver
lines like pinstripes.

3.  For those of you who painted/dyed hard plastic and vinyl pieces is there
any amount of time you should wait before applying a protectant (like armor
all) ?  I don’t want the new color to fade.

thanks for any been there/done that advice, ponderings, casual musings, etc.

For the console you will have to weld on one bracket.  YOu will also need the 
bucket seat conversion brackets welded on the floor.  I did this to mine.  I 
used leather shoe dye to recolor the console base as well as my dash pad.  I 
waited about 48 hours before amoralling it.  Color still looks good.  No 
chipping of any kind.

Every year around this time I get the itch to get another Chevelle.  I sold
my 67 SS in 1988 to move to Florida after owning it for 13years.  I bought
it in '75 for $100 to save it from the crusher and spent two years
scrounging parts and getting it re-assembled.  The 67 was never a show
quality car, but it was a great driver (427, 4spd, disc brakes, air,
cruise).  The CFO (wife) is pretty close to giving her blessing, so it's
time to get serious about planning.  This time around I am looking to build
a 67 or 69 SS hardtop for occasional street duty.

My main concerns for the next one are suspension and brakes.  Good handling
and four wheel disc brakes are an absolute must.  The last one sat about an
inch and a half lower than stock, had a rear sway bar and 69 Chevelle discs
up front.  This worked well, but I want the new ride to be even better.

Obviously, I'm a little rusty and not completely informed, so can anyone
give me some insight into the following issues?

1)  Four wheel disc conversions; Baer vs. SS Brakes vs. MP Brakes vs.
prowling bone yards.  Has anyone gone this route?
2)  One piece vs. two piece spindles?  Control arms?
3)  Sway bars, springs, bushings, linkage.  Are urethane bushings really
noisy?  What about polygraphite?

Sorry for a lot of questions, but there is a lot of research to be done
before I even start looking for a suitable car.

Thanks in advance,

There have been so many bad stories that I want to write about a 
good experience.

Mind you I managed my own expectations and did lots of the prep work.

When I got my '64 it was six colors.  Not having $5000 for a good paint
job, I decided to go cheap.  So I got all the emblems, chrome, and
anything else removable off the car, put on 4 junk yard wheels, cleaned
the exterior and went to Earle Scheib.

Five years later the car still looks like it had an inexpensive paint
job, but for $350 there is no way I can complain about anything.

Anybody have any extra 69 Chevelle parts they are looking to get rid of?  I 
specifically need the hood latch support and the upper grill mounting 
brackets.

[Chevelle-List] Got the itch

2001-06-28 Thread Robert B. King


Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List


Every year around this time I get the itch to get another Chevelle.  I sold
my 67 SS in 1988 to move to Florida after owning it for 13years.  I bought
it in '75 for $100 to save it from the crusher and spent two years
scrounging parts and getting it re-assembled.  The 67 was never a show
quality car, but it was a great driver (427, 4spd, disc brakes, air,
cruise).  The CFO (wife) is pretty close to giving her blessing, so it's
time to get serious about planning.  This time around I am looking to build
a 67 or 69 SS hardtop for occasional street duty.

My main concerns for the next one are suspension and brakes.  Good handling
and four wheel disc brakes are an absolute must.  The last one sat about an
inch and a half lower than stock, had a rear sway bar and 69 Chevelle discs
up front.  This worked well, but I want the new ride to be even better.

Obviously, I'm a little rusty and not completely informed, so can anyone
give me some insight into the following issues?

1)  Four wheel disc conversions; Baer vs. SS Brakes vs. MP Brakes vs.
prowling bone yards.  Has anyone gone this route?
2)  One piece vs. two piece spindles?  Control arms?
3)  Sway bars, springs, bushings, linkage.  Are urethane bushings really
noisy?  What about polygraphite?

Sorry for a lot of questions, but there is a lot of research to be done
before I even start looking for a suitable car.

Thanks in advance,

Bob King

Slipping back into reality, my understanding is there is one block 
that can support serious overbore.

The recent "Motorsports" big block available from GM is specifically
designed for this type torture.  The most obvious way to identify one
of these blocks is to look at the oil port on the top rear of the
block.  Standard blocks are cast and machined to take a 1/8" NPT oil
pressure sensor.  If you find a block with an altered casting that has
a 1/2" NPT port -- you have something special.

[Chevelle-List] custom headliner

2001-06-28 Thread Mike Pell


Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List


When I was 16, I coulnd't afford to buy a new headliner.  So my Mom and I custom made 
a headliner from a velour material.  It turned out awesome, really did look good, and 
lasted 10 years!  All for a few dollars of material picked up at a flea market!  

We used the old headliner as a pattern.

I've redone a few headliners and it's a lot easier than you'd think. I'm 
gonna try another fabric next time I do mine. I'm thinking a leather or 
suede would look good since the new dash is darker brown (not in yet) and 
the dash cover (dash is cracked, but a lot better looking than mine) will 
be dark as well. I am switching the interior colors to dark brown cause 
saddle gets way too dirty. On my site there's a pic of the interior of an 
Elky where the guy redid his own door panels and used wood trim instead of 
the cheap chrome tape on plastic crap that came with the car. I'll use the 
dark color, but the idea will be the same...may trim it in aromatic cedar 
so the car smells good all the time...

[Chevelle-List] Headlight Relay

2001-06-28 Thread dspencer


Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List


I did a good thing last weekend.  Having recently moved into the country a
bit and driving now on really dark country roads, I'd begun noticing that
the headlights in my '66 Elky weren't all that bright (unless they were
really switched onto bright).   I did some investigating and found only 10.5
volts making it to the lights (that voltage makes a long and perilous voyage
before getting to the lights).  

I remembered an article that ran in one of the car mags not too long ago
about adding a relay into the headlight circuit.  I didn't go digging for
the article, but just dived right in.  I used an extra Radio Shack auto
relay I had laying around and attached it to the radiator support.  I used
one of the original supply lines to the driver's headlight as the control
voltage and pulled the load voltage from the junction box.   Did a little
cutting and splicing - took about an hour - and it was done.  

I hadn't done any night driving until last night and had almost forgotten
the job, but once I got on the road the difference was amazing.   12 volt
headlamps work much better once they're supplied with 12 volts (or 13.5 as
the case may be).

For night driving in really dark areas, this mod is highly recommended.

Vent Away!!

Sounds like what I'm going through with my '63.  I got little rust circles
forming around some trim holes that were bondo'ed on my '63... my receipt
says they were welded.  The owner told me to bring my car back, and they
would fix it... I'm not sure I want to.  It took the better part of 3 weeks
to get their overspray off my A window and 1/4 window stainless... I just
put all my inerior, windshield, and door glass in, and only cruised the car
for a couple weeks before the paint started going to hell.  I figure the
jackoffs will just bugger it up again.  I shouldn't complain though, they
only had my car for 6 months and charged give or take $3500.  The red one on
my link was done in my drive, and has nicer body lines, better gloss, and
less dirt in the paint; I can't help but wonder how much nicer it would be
if I was a professional like them.  I've owned my '63 (green) Nova for 8
years.  It was supposed to be done right; I did all the mechanical work
myself and did it right.  The paint shop ruined my car.  I'm so disgusted
with the car, I'll probably sell the d**n thing, rather do it over.  Sorry,
had to vent.

I think if you get so far as to subscribe, and then are at the point where 
you are truly so inept as to not be able to read the simple unsubscribe 
directions, you should have to send in $20. or so to have someone else do it 
for you.
