Drop the little panel under the steering column. It should be 4 screws. Up in there, you'll see what looks like a string that is screwed to the steering column. The other end of it goes to the pointer (and is spring loaded to pull it towards "Park". You should be able to loosen a screw on the column and adjust the pointer's position.

Re: [Chevelle-List] HEI and resistor wire
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Well, you should be getting some type of starting problems thats if you also eliminated the wire going from your pos. side of the coil to the starter to give full 12.0 volts when starting your engine. If you still have this wire linked which is stock for points equipped veh., I think your car might be starting okay but the resister wire isnt giving you full 12.0 volts all the time after your car starts because thats when your resister wire takes over giving you only 9.0 something volts there for killing alot of your performance. This is easy to do, just replace the wire with a same size or bigger direct wire from the walL socket to the HEI. Then take off th wire going to your coil positive side to the starter. All you should have on the starter connected after this is the battery wire and the purple wire coming from the wall socket directly from the wall socket. P.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 1968 chevelle Malibu
If you bid a fair price before end of bidding I guarantee you someone will bid higher. I wait until last minute and bid the highest I am willing to pay for it. sometimes I win and sometimes I lose. When you are on rare or almost nonexcisting parts the prices can get crazy. I've seen an am-fm radio not meet reserve at 750 and then the next week one will go for 1200. another trick i have learned is don't bid exact amounts. i will bid like $200.02 or $150.02, it is amazing how many times i have won by one or two pennies larry

Re: [Chevelle-List] restoration guides..
Tom, I didn't find the book that helpful at all. My advice to you is to purchase "Chevrolet by the Numbers" by Alvin Colvin. That book is a bible to make sure all the correct codes and numbers are on your machine. Next, I would join ACES, the American Chevelle Enthusiasts Society. Every month there are tips on how to restore your machine. I joined I guess 3-4 years ago and spent the extra cash for all the back issues. You may want to try that route. Another source may be the Year One Catalog. They are pretty good on the details and the catalog has tons of pictures you can look at. I have dealt with them in the past (heck, I've dealt with probably ALL of them) and find them to be a pretty reputable firm. I'd also recommend getting the Ground Up and National Parts Depot Catalogs as well. Next, I'd stick to this list. I'm sure you will find a number of guys in your local area that would love to share their tips with you. GOOD LUCK! Tony Gray ACES 2114 Team Chevelle Gold 185 Bensalem PA 69 SS 396/L34/M22/4.10

Re: [Chevelle-List] Spin Tech mufflers?
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Hey Mike - 3.5" exhaust all the way back? No wonder they are loud! With that pipe diameter (and a healthy motor) just about any muffler is going to be loud. Before I went with my current full 3" system on my Chevelle, I had 3" headpipes and 2.5" tailpipes, and I was told that changing to 3" tailpipes with the same mufflers would result in a significant increase in volume and resonation. So, since I didn't like the mufflers I had on there anyway (Flowmaster 30 series), I went with the full 3" system and the big block 70 series mufflers (quietest ones they make). Good thing I did because I can only expect the exhaust to get louder and resonate more with my new 427 SBC. What kind of motor do you have in there that you need a 3.5" system, anyway? A 3" system should be more than enough for most street engines .

I learned a life lesson on Ebay Unfortunately I got screwed on a deal. I was not the high bidder on an auction for a set of heads. After the auction the seller and I decided on a price for him to set me up with heads ported and ready to go just as in the auction. I sent a money order for $960.00 to cover the heads and shipping. It has been a year and a half and you know the rest of the story..No heads.. No money Returned. According to South Carolina BBB the company "James Williams Racing Engines" doesn't even exist. I got screwed..what am I going to do take him to small claims and spend $2000 doing it? I live in Ohio.

I got a few "nastygrams" on that too. I asked eBay about that some time back and they actually suggested "sniping" as a legal way to bid...as long as you didn't use any software to do the bidding for you. I keep two copies of my browser open - one with the item and one with a potential bid. Keep refreshing the item screen to see any last minute bids and be ready to place a bid in the other screen. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. As long as they have bidding that ENDS at a specific time, bidding at any time is fair game.

You can get it from Ace Hardware and it runs about $20 a gallon, much cheaper than POR15, like I said though I figured I would try it on my daily beater and the 69 seeing as how both I don't care if the stuff don't work, just thought I would try it. Although like I have said it has held for the past few months with me driving my truck everywhere, gravels and such seem not to bother it, I have the whole rear section painted of the frame all around so whatever gets hit I can see the damage, delightfully no chips or nothing.

Actually, it's most shared mail servers that have the limit. The hosting companies & ISPs don’t want their users tying up all those resources. A friend of mine recently sent me a 10MB file w/ no problem. A client sent me a 6.5MB file the night before last. I have my own domain name and no limit on message size. Netcom/Earthlink/Mindspring does have a limit. I think it's only 1MB. I use Netcom to connect, but not for my mail. -Original Message- In general, most email programs will not take attachment over 1.5m (15000kb).

RE: [Chevelle-List] Ebay question
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List It happens all the time, especially on the more popular items. The sellers bid against themselves to see how high they can raise the price. Then if nobody outbids them, they contact the highest "real" bidder privately with some story about how the buyer backed out, and they offer it to that person at their last bid. This is a very effective way to jack up the final selling price. -Original Message- I just started using Ebay. However, I have a suspicion that some sellers assume an identity as a buyer and bid against their own item thus attempting to raise the price.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Ebay question
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List eBay frowns very heavily on people bidding on their own items or using a shill to increase the price. I've had it happen to me and have reported them to eBay's Safe Harbor. They used to have a feature that let you see what a bidder/winner has bid on in the past. They also used to keep bid items on file for 30 days so you could go back at least that far. Don't know if they still do and I'm sure the practice continues. I would imagine that quite often they either bid themselves out of a sale or their wares are worth more to them than the general public at a given time. Unfortunately, you run into jerks everywhere and eBay is big enough now to have more than their share. All-in-all, I've had good experiences both buying and selling. As others will tell you, bid what you're willing to pay and ask lots of questions. If you don't get what you want today, it'll probably come up again.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Ebay question
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List Ken, I believe that there are some that bid their stuff up(by having a friend do it). The key is to know how much the item is worth and how much you are willing to spend. I picked up another set of LS-5 heads and Intake for my 70 Chevelle for $125.00..another thing to remember is shipping.. it cost $100.00 to get those parts to me. Buyer beware..there is lots of junk for sale. Be sure to ask all necessary questions before bidding. A nice piece to one person is scrap to another. The pictures don't always tell the story.
