[Chevelle-List] Rack and pinion

2001-11-14 Thread Michael Ishee








Has another installed a aftermarket
rack and pinion steering into their car. 
I have a ’70 Chevelle that I thinking about doing this to.  A company called Speed Direct (www.speeddirect.com)
in about to come out with a aftermarket bolt on called
Steeroids. 
Also what is some of the benefits of having rack and pinion as apposed
to our current type of steering.  Their prices seem to range from about
1000 to 1300.  However there is
currently no info on the Chevelle system on their site yet.  Thanks for the help.

Many years ago I changed  motor  mounts on a 68 camaro  by lifting the
motor.  The only possible insight i can give you is that its doable. 
Probably a pain but much easier than pulling the motor.

Yes, you can do it that way. Unbolt the tranny mount a little.

Use a wood block under the oil pan after you have the bolts loose.

Title: Replacing Motor Mounts in '69 Malibu





I just found out that the driver side motor mount is broken.  It is for a 350 sb.  
Is there a way to change the mount without unbolting the engine from the transmission.
Can I just unbolt the mounts and lift the engine enough to remove and replace the mount?
Or is it easier to just take the engine out of the car?
My friend said I could just jack the engine up a little from underneath but isn't the crossmember in the way?

Herb,
I was at the Good Guys show in Pleasonton last week. 
I Contacted the Cobler in AZ though after seeing pics of your Elky.
How was it dealing with them long distance?
Also, approx how much did they charge overall for the work on your Elky, if 
you don't mind my asking?
Also, also, how well does your smugglers trunk seal.
I didn't see a link to your e-mail on your web site to ask you these 
questions earlier.

[Chevelle-List] FW: American Racing Torque Thrust "D" Wheels

2001-11-14 Thread Hambright, James


Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List


Hi,

   Thanks for all the replies, and I apoligize for not providing better
clarification...

1) Yes, the price is $125 for all four wheels (plus shipping)
2) A couple of the wheels do have some scuff marks up around the bead area
3) I only have three of the center caps - they will need to be replaced (not
worth putting on in my opinion)
4) The wheels are not painted
5) There are several holes (to attach the center caps) that will have to be
re-tapped
6) The wheels are not bent
7) I do not have pix, I will try to get some soon...

Thank you all for your replies/comments!

Thanks for the reply Rick. I've received more than a few inquiries, so I
guess the $125 price for all four is fair. I did go to a few online stores
so I know that just one of the 14" wheels cost more than the price I'm
asking. By the way, I'm located in Orlando.

Hi All,

   
  I have four used AR Torque Thrust "D" wheels that I want to sell or trade.
The wheels need some restoration (paint & re-tap some threads). I was
planning to put these on my Chevelle, but have since decided to keep the
original ralley wheels instead. I have two 15x8.5 and two 14x7. They have
the 4 3/4" bolt pattern, not sure of the back spacing. I am going to list
them in the local paper for $100 - $125 if no one is interested in them
outright or for trade. Anyway, does this sound like a reasonable price? I
