Re: [Chevelle-List] chevelle
The story is that their father (all three members are brothers) is a hot-rod mechanic and his favorite ride was the Chevelle (my guess is the 67 SS396 - yummy). With the passion that they found with their father and Chevelles, they decided to name their group that. I have both albums, which I find very musically and emotionally inspiring. It's very rare these days to find such music, even though Chevelle might be compared to some of the mainstream Emo/Alternative/Metal bands now. But there's something special about them. For anyone that is interested, their website is http://chevelleinc.com/ . Sorry to bore everyone with my thoughts on this..

Re: [Chevelle-List] Brake problems continued
OK, I Previously cooked the brakes due to the front disc brakes locking up. I have replaced the Calipers and still no fluid coming through. I checked the steel lines and there also was no fluid coming through. At the suggestion of this board I am in process of replacing master Cylinder. There is an extra "Block" or "Valve" that is bolted on with the MC at the power brake booster. The front reservoir attaches to this "block/Valve" and goes on down to the proportioning block. The lines from the MC to this block/Valve are rusted or stuck so I ring off the short one which allows me to turn the block rather than the brake line head so I can remove the Block/valve. What is this "Block/Valve"? Can I replace it? Where do I find it? I have seen front line kits that say 5 pieces but have not been able to see illustrations. One thing I have not seen is anything other than the Proportioning block. I want to replace every part on these brakes so I know I will have no other problems.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Gearvenders under/over verses 700R4
Herb, did you build up the trans or did you put it in stock? If you did build it up, what did you do to it? Did you do anything to the converter, does it lock up? Everything that I have been seeing here and other places is that people were having problems with snapping the input shafts to the trans. Also without a computer in my '70 will it work properly.

[Chevelle-List] e-coat
Well, I was to pick up my body and doors this morning from Carponents but things went from bad to worse. I reserved the same trailer I used 4 weeks ago to take the car to the dipper but when I got there they said my Sonoma was too small to pull and stop with that trailer. I have the tow package and a class 3 hitch. Arguing did no good. So, I rented a 14' truck. This should be big enough, right? I only need 12' for the body. I pulled up to the shop and there was my car sitting on the dolly held up by forks on the hi-lo. I open the door to the truck and I had a fit. There is about a 2.5' box type shelf at the back of the truck. We measured the length and it came to 11'3". Now I'm not only embarrassed but fit to be tied. I paid the guy to try and save some face for being stupid for not looking inside the truck before I took it. Now I have to get it Sunday. I had to put $10 in the truck gas tank and paid $68 for the rental and I still don't have the car. The only consolation to allthis, is that the car looks better than I thought it would.(no hidden sins orcancer)When I get it, I'll post some before and after pictures. http://www.ecoatking.com/ Rich"66 MalibuACES # 5066

Re: [Chevelle-List] Brake problems continued
every resto parts supplier has those IE Ground Up, Year One, OPG, etc. The proportioning valves rarely go bad and the distribution block really can't go bad either unless it has rust in it which is highly unlikey. If I were you, I would replace all of the hard lines, hoses, Master Cylinder and take the prop valve and distribution block and blow them out with compressed air. After you blow them out, then pour some new brake fluid in them and blow them out again to flush out any contaminants. Tom

Re: [Chevelle-List] Brake problems part 3

But like Tom said, it is very rare for the prop. valve or the dist. block to go bad. Ok...Now I have replaced the master cylinder and both front flexible brake lines as well as both front calipers. Still no pedal and no decent flow of brake fluid.Now the problem must be in either the proportioning valve or the distribution block. So I know that the lines to the prop valve up front are a problem as one wrang off and the other wanted to but I turned the valve instead. Then I go under the car to the "block" and I have similar problems on the front brake lines coming in. I would love to get the brakes at least working so I can move ther car to a lift..not happening This is now becoming a pain in the ass. I have owned numerous Chevys for the past 25 years and I have never had an obstructed brake line...
