Re: [Chevelle-List] Roller Rocker Suggestions?
Jim, If you're not getting crazy with the engine mods, I would highly recommend the Comp Cams Magnum Roller Tip rockers. I had a set on one of my previous cars and when I sold it I swapped the Magnums to the next car. I used that set on four consecutive cars until I finally let them go when a friend of mine bought the Blazer they were on. I now have a set on the 454 in my Elky and they work great (and are much less $$ than full roller rockers). http://www.compcams.com/information/Products/RockerArms/MagnumRoller.asp cYa- Herb Lumpp 1966 El Camino ACES 3509, MCC 528 http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/ - Original Message - From: "J.

Re: [Chevelle-List] Carb Float Question
Both floats should be able to move freely. If the front does and the rear doesn't, it sounds to me like something in the rear is binding. You may want to remove the needle assemble and make sure it's not full of crud or something and then reinstall it and try adjusting it. It could be that it's adjusted down too far. If the needle assembly needs to be replaced, they aren't very expensive. cYa- Herb Lumpp 1966 El Camino ACES 3509, MCC 528 http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/ - Original Message - From: "J.

RE: [Chevelle-List] Finally got some track time
I bought a Moser setup. They call it a bolt-in but it comes to you in bare steel. I cleaned the housing up (some weld spatter and surface rust) and sprayed it with PPG DP90LF. I like the look of the DP. In reality, if you didn’t worry about how pretty it is, you could actually clean everything up and bolt it in. I was able to use my Chevy brakes by opening the axle hole in the brake backing plate up big enough to pass the Ford axle bearing through it. Then the axle retainer bolts the whole package together. I used a die grinder with a carbide bit and cut a little at a time until everything just fit. The GM flanges are already welded to the housing. After that I drilled the bolt holes in my brake drums out to accommodate the 1/2” lug bolts. I bought it with 31 spline axles, 3.89 gears (9 -35) and a US Gear posi unit. I used Southside Machine lower bars and Jegs adjustable uppers (very good quality) so I could adjust my pinion angle. The Southside Machine lowers were the only thing that kept it from being bolt-in because I welded their brackets on instead of bolting them. So far I think I’m on the right track, although I didn’t think the car would be strong enough to overpower the slicks. My friend says, “There’s no such thing as too much power, too little traction is the problem.” Bill Vander Werf -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Capt Crunch Sent: Saturday, February 01, 2003 11:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] Finally got some track time Nice combo Bill... did you go with an aftermarket fitted ford nine?
