 John's question brought a related topic to mind. I know a guy on the
 west side of Michigan who has a '74 GMC Sprint with a numbers matching
 454. It needs rocker panels and some other work. Engine is apart but
 it's a good block and heads - never bored, etc. It is, says the owner,
 one of only 79 examples built that year. I had looked at it for my
 nephew but I am worried about how much work is involved in rocker
 panels. I think it could be had for less than $2k...maybe even $1500.

 The engine is T1120CWX54R5007137, date code K1673, the heads are 386781
 (large oval) in case anyone knows the GMC number data, I'd be interested
 to know if it is indeed a match to 1974.

 Does anybody happen to know if the rocker panels from 1964-67 A-body
 cars
 also fit 1968-72 El Camino? You never see them listed that way, but the
 1964-67 floor pans are listed as also fitting 1968-72 El Camino. It
 would be

I haven't heard anything yet. I just don't know how hard rockers are to replace and, 
especially, if heavy rocker rust would indicate other structural rust. I sure don't 
want to get into a rust disaster but with only 66 copies of 1974 GMC Sprints out there 
with the 454, I am somewhat motivated to save it. Here's the URL - the owner now has 
it listed: http://www.cars-on-line.com/74gmc6748.html

What's the list's opinion...worth saving? Worth 2G's?

[Chevelle-List] 4 speed shifters

[SUPRSPRT72]

Hi all, 
was wondering if anyone new what GM used for there Shifter on the muncie 4spd. trans. was it a hurst shifter or muncie, it is a 1970 M21 it doesn't belong in my car, the original was a M20, the shifter that i have now in there is a Hurst Comp plus and i can't get the rubber boot or the boot trim ring to line up in the center of the hump hole i'm sure i'll have to have that replaced as well as the guy i bought the car from used a quicksilver automatic and BM and hacked the hump plate to heck. and where can i get the shifter from? all help is needed lol 
Thanks All

I 
think GM used Hurst as early as 68 or 69 but it wasn't the Comp Plus you 
have. The Comp Plus bolts to the trans where the factory model bolted to 
the crossmember, if memory serves, causing the linkage to bind up. I'm 
sure that's why a lot of owners went to the Comp Plus.

Actually Chevelles used Muncie shifters through 69. I'm not sure about
70. The Muncie's were crap so many guys changed them out shortly after
buying their cars. BOP did use Hurst shifters however. Why chevy didn't,
I have no idea.

RE: [Chevelle-List] 4 speed shifters

[Stephen Lentz]

My 
70SS has a M21 transmission as well as a Muncie shifter. My car has a 
console so I don't know if they came with different shaped handles for 
non-console cars. My shifter handle bolts to the shifter assembly 
horizontally with two bolts and then turns vertically at about 90 degrees coming 
up through the shifter hump. About 1/3 of the way up the handle, it twists 
a little and comes toward the drives seat (I assume so that the driver doesn't 
have to reach over as far).

As 
far as quality, I hate the stock shifter. It has a very long throw from 
first to second and feels like you are shifting a sausage) I figure this 
is why many Chevelle owners tossed the stock shifters out and bought Hurst 
ones. I'm thinking about doing that myself and figuring out some way to 
attach the original shifter handle to make it look stock (the handle says Muncie 
on it).

Yes, 
that is true. Mine transmission binds up often using the stock shifter 
assembly...usually at shows when everyone is watching or when hot girls are 
around. It's hard to look cool when you got to get out of the and rock it 
back-an-forth a few times to knock it out of "Firverse" gear (not quite first 
gear and not quite reverse).

  the crossmember, if memory serves, causing the linkage to bind up. I'm 
  sure that's why a lot of owners went to the Comp Plus.

[Chevelle-List] 4 speed shiftersHi 
all, was wondering if anyone new what GM used for there Shifter on the 
muncie 4spd. trans. was it a hurst shifter or muncie, it is a 1970 M21 it 
doesn't belong in my car, the original was a M20, the shifter that i have 
now in there is a Hurst Comp plus and i can't get the rubber boot or the 
boot trim ring to line up in the center of the hump hole i'm sure i'll 
have to have that replaced as well as the guy i bought the car from used a 
quicksilver automatic and BM and hacked the hump plate to heck. and

It's pretty much all Soff-Seal. I forgot to mention earlier that the window
felts come from Re-Pops.

Steele Rubber has lots more selection for less popular stuff, but Soff-Seal
has Chevelle / El Camino pretty well covered.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 4 speed shifters

[SUPRSPRT72]

Hello guys,
thanks for responding, anyways what does everyone use so that it fits the hump plate and can use the boot and ring so that it looks original (course without useing the stock original) or must i use it??? i need a shifter for a bench seat and looks original. Thanks again.
KenD HeavyChevy

Re: [Chevelle-List] 4 speed shifters

[ChevelleYenko]

Chevelle Never used a Hurst Shifter from the factory
Camaro used a round handle Hurst 1969 to 1971
 1968-69 Chevelles use 3 different Muncie handles for console, non console 
bucket, and bench seat. I think 1970-72 only used 2 different Muncie handles 
for console, and bench seat.

Also keep in mind that most 700R4's can't handle the same torque that a

I am also building a '70 vert with a ZZ502.  For this project, we were
originally going to go with a 700R4, but found that the 700R4 tops out at
around 450 ft-lbs of torque.  My understanding is that the weak link is the
Aluminum input shaft.  We decided to switch gears (no pun intended) and
went with the TH400/GV setup.

However one final noteThere are companies that are addressing the 700R4
limitations.  Bow Tie Overdrives in SoCal has a modified 700R4 that will
handle up to 600HP.  I've already headed down the TH400/GV path, but it
might be worth looking into what you can get from a 700R4 these days.

RE: [Chevelle-List] 4 speed shifters

[Dale McIntosh]

GM did use Hurst shifters, just not in Chevelles.  The late Chevelle
handles were just flat like the Hurst models.  In any event, the binding
is what caused owners to jump to the Hurst Comp Plus.

  sections of the triangular separation gear into the posture cylinder 
  and lock them into place using the band aid adhesive strip.Insert the 
  wiggling pin into the wobbling hole, making sure that it seated 
  correctly.Place the D cell battery and the eleven 9 volt batteries in 
  the power chamber.The device should be calibrated before operation

Title: Message



There 
is another brand of shifter that you hardly ever hear about, but the quality 
from what I have seen and heard is above anything out there. Chuck Hansen put 
one in his Chevelle Wagon on a Horse Power TV show. I had a tranny demo guy at a 
car show tell me there is no better shifter made and looking at them I can 
believe it. Chuck Hanson when I talked to him on the phone confirmed his belief 
in their quality and said they can't be beat.

I know 
they come standard on some types of trannys when you buy them but don't remember 
which ones. Tremec 5 speeds maybe?

The 
trouble? Very hard to find a place that sells one outright, and they are not 
cheap, around $450 for a 4 speed I believe. I think you have to go directly to 
the manufacturer now. For whatever reason I don't know Jegs doesn't carry them 
and Summit stopped.

The 
name brand? "LONG" brand of Shifter.

There is also another brand of weather-stripping out there, and I have
read where other Chevelle guys recommend it after using it. Have no
experience in this area myself, just researching it as well.

Not hard at all. The biggest job is removing the old and cleaning the area
in preparation for your install.
 I like the black 3-M black heavy duty weather strip adhesive,  runiinh a
1/6 to 1/8 bead between the locating plugs.
  As for brands. Soft Seal or Metro ( I never used Steel)
  Metro rubber is Softer sponger  on compression. They both are good
products. But the Soft Seal on a Door wheater  Strip, takes longe for the
foam/rubber to compress and let the door sit  flush. And you still most
likly  will have to readjust the striker pin.
  After some time everything will conform and then IMO.  both products are
the same.

[Chevelle-List] more Flowmaster facts

[John Nasta]

As I start to understand it all a little better...

Ever notice how Flowmaster mufflers are referred to as 4-inch or 5-inch?
Well, that number represents thickness of the muffler. Both the 30 series
and the 50 series have a 23-inch overall length and 17 case length. The 30
series are 5-inch thick by 10 inches wide, and 50 series come in both 4-inch
thick by 9.75 inches wide, and 5-inch thick by 10 inches wide. So, 30 and 50
series are all pretty much the same size.

The 40 series is another story completely. They are all 4-inches thick by
9.75 inches wide, but have a case length of 13-inches and an overall length
of 19 inches (much shorter). Those can't be easily interchanged like the 30s
 50s.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Door Weatherstripping info needed

[John Nasta]

There is a door frame weatherstrip that goes around the shell of the door
(completely around on 2  4 door sedans and El Caminos or just around the
bottom  sides on coupes and convertibles).

Then there is a roof rail weatherstrip for coupes, where the door glass
meets the roof rail.

Then there is window glass run channel, which goes into the vertical bar
behind the vent window on pre-1969 coupes and convertibles w/ vent windows,
and around the top  both sides of the door glass on 2  4 door sedans and
El Caminos w/ vent windows.

Then there is the vent window seal for pre-1969 coupes  convertibles and 2
 4 door sedans  El Caminos w/ vent windows.

Finally there are the window felts, which sit in the channel where the door
glass comes out of the door shell (and where the quarter window glass comes
out of the rear quarter on 2dr models).

HTH,
John Nasta

Re: [Chevelle-List] CS-130 alternator wiring help - UPDATE

[Rodney.]

Alternator's charging now!

Here's what happened.  Hopefully this will help someone else down the road.

I had everything wired correctly and so I kept taking the alternator down to
Autozone to have it tested.  Each time it tested great, and they said they
can't exchange it if it tests good.  So, I'd go home and put it back in the
car.  Still nothing worked.  I kept searching the Internet for help, but
kept coming up with the same ideas, suggestions and wiring diagrams.  I
found a service manual for the CS-130 at
http://www.alternatorparts.com/cs130_sbpage1.htm   It includes a
troubleshooting section.  That was what I needed to give me the confidence
that the alternator was bad.

I went to Pepboys and bought a new alternator with a lifetime warantee and
put it in.  Whaddya know, it worked.  So after weeks of banging my head, it
was the alternator the whole time.  Now I don't know know whether to be
pissed becuase I had to spend another $170 or happy because it's all working
now.  I'm going to take that other alternator down to Autozone and have a
talk with somebody to see what they'll do for me.

Moral of the story:  Just becuase it tests okay on the machine, doesn't mean
it's working CORRECTLY.

 I found that diagram, but I've found 3 other sites that that's incorrect.
 Also, I tried it that way and it didn't work at all.

 As far as consulting the tech support, I tried that and they spoke in
 circles around me.  I really had no clue what that guy was talking about.
 He didn't sound too sure himself, but he used a lot of electrical jargon
 that I'm just not able to follow.   Their kits come with a harness for a
 12SI alternator and the directions explain how to hook that up.  When I
 called and mentioned a CS-130 he kind of stumbled and acted like I was the
 first one to ever do this or call about it.

 I also called Mark at MAD Electrical (some of you may be familiar with his
 website... VERY good website if you haven't checked out the tech section
yet
 DO SO)... and he talked me through my current setup.  By all accounts,
this
 SHOULD work and it's not.

 And lastly, there is no fuse for this tan wire at the fuse panel.  It does
 have 12v though so I know it's okay.

  Thanks for the suggestions.

Re: [Chevelle-List] CS-130 alternator wiring help - UPDATE

[Capt Crunch]

Oh yes! Mention the competition... it should help you out. I know your pain... My apologizes to anyone that works at one of these places... but 95% of these people know diddly crap about what they sell. I had a similar problem with a place here. When I purchased my Chevelle it was barely drivable, but I wanted to drive it about 40 miles home rather then tow it. Of course the kid I bought it from was nice enough to leave me a roached out battery. Only place open I went and got a battery and drove it home after some time the battery just didn't hold a charge for anything. It held full voltage and would fail a load test. I returned it for an exchange and of course got flack... well we have to charge it cause it was .2 volts from full... irritated I said fine. The next day they tested it and said it was ok. For anyone who doesn't know... I'm a ASE technician and I tested the battery at the shop I work at. I think it is safe to say I know how to test a battery ;) I kindly asked how much of a load they tested it at. I got the old :well uhhh uhhh... the machine just sticks the right amount of load on it" Ah sorry wrong answer buddy. I finally called the regional rep or manager and he stopped by the shop... I verified my results... and wow did I get some schmoozing. Got a refund for the amount I paid for a new battery I used of the shelf (A good Interstate cause I was tired of waiting to get some other work done on the chevelle)... got a new top of the line battery and ton of apologizes. So you can win these battles... at this point I would talk only to a head store manager and would threaten to take all you business to their competitors if they do not make this right.Good Luck.

Oh yes! Mention the competition... it should help you out. I know your pain... My apologizes to anyone that works at one of these places... but 95% of these people know diddly crap about what they sell. I had a similar problem with a place here. When I purchased my Chevelle it was barely drivable, but I wanted to drive it about 40 miles home rather then tow it. Of course the kid I bought it from was nice enough to leave me a roached out battery. Only place open I went and got a battery and drove it home after some time the battery just didn't hold a charge for anything. It held full voltage and would fail a load test. I returned it for an exchange and of course got flack... well we have to charge it cause it was .2 volts from full... irritated I said fine. The next day they tested it and said it was ok. For anyone who doesn't know... I'm a ASE technician and I tested the battery at the shop I work at. I think it is safe to say I know how to test a battery ;) I kindly asked how much of a load they tested it at. I got the old :well uhhh uhhh... the machine just sticks the right amount of load on it" Ah sorry wrong answer buddy. I finally called the regional rep or manager and he stopped by the shop... I verified my results... and wow did I get some schmoozing. Got a refund for the amount I paid for a new battery I used of the shelf (A good Interstate cause I was tired of waiting to get some other work done on the chevelle)... got a new top of the line battery and ton of apologizes. So you can win these battles... at this point I would talk only to a head store manager and would threaten to take all you business to their competitors if they do not make this right. Good Luck.

Could be machine or tester..I would raise a tall gripe with someone way
up at Autozone.  Be sure to mention Pepboys solved the problem.  That may
get more response than anything!
