RE: [Chevelle-List] RE: Yenko years - p.s.
There were others ~less known~ than Yenko. Berger, Baldwin-Motion, Fred Gibbs, Nickey, Data, etc. but apparently Yenko was the only one with 1969 Chevelles that were personalized and became the most remembered. Camaros were the hot setup from 67-early 70's and they got the attention from almost everyone.

RE: [Chevelle-List] what's a 1969/70 F41?
Special Performance - Front and Rear Suspension. I don't have the literature that describes just what the option consisted of though. I would suspect heavier springs, shocks, anti-sway bars, etc. There was also a F40 option that included "..special front and rear springs and shock absorbers." I think, as Tom said, the F41 got heavier sway bars as well. >From the 69 and the 70 restoration kits: 1969 - F40 available on 13000 [any Chevelle model] 1970 - F40 available on 13000 (exc. Wagon) 1969 - F41 available on the 13427-37 (300/300 Deluxe) and 13637-67 (Malibu hardtop and convertible) *but* only with the SS396 option. 1970 - F41 available on the 13637-67 and no note of the SS package being mandatory. Both the F40 and F41 are listed in the "Extra Cost Equipment" section so I can't say for CERTAIN that the SS option automatically got one or the other or just the opposite; like the 69 F41 required the SS396 option but maybe the SS396 option didn't automatically get the F41 (or F40 for that matter) suspension package. I can't imagine not ordering the F40 or F41 if you opted for the SS package, but then again there are a few 3-speed SS Chevelles out there that didn't opt for the 4-speed or TH400 either.

Re: [Chevelle-List] what's a 1969/70 F41?
F41 is the heavy duty suspension package. Usually includes a 1 1/8" front sway bar and a 1" rear sway bar along with heavy duty springs. I have it on my 70 SS. Pretty sure it was standard on SS cars and an option on the Malibus. Tom

If you were so inclined, the fabric inserts will even fit. I have since put reflective heat insulation over the rough scoop portion.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Bad news came tonight...
Larry the guys have given you alot of great advice. For one who has not turned alot or wrenches, the diagnoses proses can be EXPENSIVE one. Is there any body near you to rule out the obvious problems. Re move valve cover and whenk cam lobes,rocker arms,valvesprings. Remove plugs do a leak down test or compression test. Remove dist cap check for excessive free play , vertical & rotational. the fly wheel/flex plate. With this info you'll be able ruls out the obvious. It still my be a rod bearing, or a piston wrist pin IT's then you have to look a the options.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Trunk pans 1970 (diff. than Chips)
I found plumbers putty works great. Stays soft and holds. Any hardware store has it.I have also used it to seal the kick panel vents and the heater inside. On the plugs, some were screwed in place along with the sealer. My Nova was like that. I guess you could use small sheet metal screws for added insurance if you wanted.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Bad news came tonight...
Also pistons slapping against the cylinder walls. Don Here is a list of things that knockFuel PumpsOil PumpsDistributorsFlywheels will knock if crackedRodsMainsValves slapping the pistons will knock and thusly bend the valvesWorn lobes on a camshaftHeat RisersIf it is not getting progressivley louder, you can rule out rods & mains, you have an electric fuel pump, so that is out the door. If it is missing and running like crap, my guess would be a worn cam lobe. Could also be a carbon knock. The best way to check that is to pull the heads. If it is an older rebuild or not rebuilt at all, this is a good possibility.Tom
Re: [Chevelle-List] Bad news came tonight...
I had this happen to me on a 305 chevy pickup. The knock wasn't consistent though. I had a hell of a time finding it! But when I took the flywheel off, it came of in two pieces! Don I'll bet you it's a cracked flywheel and/or a loose flywheel bolt. Check the flywheel very carefully with a flashlight. Remove the flywheel bolts (take note if any seem to be too loose) and look for cracks around the bolt holes that might be concealed by the bolt heads. Also, make sure you have the right bolts. A bolt that's too long can bottom out against the torque converter before the flywheel is completely tight. Also the correct bolts have little "ridges" around the head to help them lock into place.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Bad news came tonight...
If you're interested in educating yourself on small-blocks (i assume you're talking about a small-block!) get a copy of David Vizard's "How to Rebuild Your Small Block Chevy." Most bookstores will carry it in the automotive section. Put it in the bathroom and read it twice. There will be a quiz next Monday. I agree. There's also one called "How to Hot Rod a Small Block". There are several books on the market that explain the basics. Seriously, if you want to know what makes the thing tick, it's a good read. Our engines are not swiss watches -- you CAN understand it all. Again, I agree. The old chevy engines just aren't that complicated. They're really quite simple. The electronics/ignition & carburation or injection can get a little complicated but the basic engine is all very simple. Have you ever seen one of those plastic models of the "Visible V8 Engine"? That's basically a small block chevy. Buy one (about $30), put it together & you've basically built a minature small block. Also, one last thing to consider on your knocking noise -- the timing chain. I've had a loose timing chain, twice, rapping against the block and timing cover that sounded an awful lot like a rod knock. Diagnosing with a stethoscope could be useful in this situation. Someone else sent a whole list of things that can cause a knock so I won't go there. A rod knock will usually get worse just off of idle during acceleration & deceleration. A main bearing usually is worse at a fast idle. Over time any bearing will continue to get worse until it goes out completely. An easy way to check if it's a bearing is to pull one plug wire off at a time while the engine is running. "Usually" a rod or main will stop knocking when the bad cylinder is removed because it's no longer pressuring the piston. Don
