RE: [Chevelle-list] 10 bolt size
We just went through this a week or two ago. I think it was determined that an 8.2 10-bolt has a 1 1/8" pinion nut, while a 8.5 has a 1 1/4" pinion nut. Someone posted a web link that also showed some minor housing differences, but the pinion nut seemed like the easiest, most verifiable way without having to open it up.

Re: [Chevelle-list] It's Alive!!!
I pulled my El Camino out of storage and drove it around,yesterday. It's been covered up in the garage since last October as battling my illness kinda took precedent. My cancer seems to be in remission now so it seemed like the right time to get it out and start enjoying it again. Man,it felt good to be rowing the 6spd down the road. Life is short,guys & gals.

Hey guys, what size 10 bolt would be stock on '71 Malibu 350/350 or would there have been more than one possibilty. I'm trying to figure out what I have w/out taking anything apart.

Re: [Chevelle-list] torn seat belt
That belt can't be repaired as no one would want the liability. There are businesses out there that can replace the belt but keep your ends.

RE: [Chevelle-list] torn seat belt
Funny you should mention the aviation world, as my father's first suggestion was to call one of our local places like Atlantic Aviation to see what they do to repair their belts.. If I have to replace the material, I guess it's no biggie- I was just more concerned about the ends than anything (the metal pieces).

RE: [Chevelle-list] torn seat belt
Hey Jim! > My passenger side seat belt, female section, has a tear on > the material that joins the bracket that bolts to the floor. Man, that's a tough one. Doing a "repair" on the material of a seat belt is "Iffy" at best. In the aviation world it isn't allowed at all, "remove and replace" is the only fix. Depending on how much material is left between the end piece and the tear you might be able to find someone who can stitch a "patch" there. An old fashioned shoe repair shop would have a heavy-duty sewing machine that can handle that kind of material. An automotive upholstery shop might have the equipment, or the ability to do some kind of splice, so the belt wouldn't be shortened any. Needless to say, the integrity of the belt is the most important issue.

RE: [Chevelle-list] engine Qs part 1
Since it is going into a Buick, the 3800 is certainly a unique, but fitting, choice. However, if you go that route, I'd try to get a supercharged version. I had one in a '98 Pontiac GTP and it ran strong. there might be block differences between FWD and RWD, though. -Dave -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of BiG_DOGGSent: Tuesday, May 11, 2004 2:55 AMTo: chevelle list; NOVA MAILSubject: [Chevelle-list] engine Qs part 1 OK I just looked a a few engine combo's.. they are: (going in 64 buick skylark) 3800/W 5spd out of a camaro and the same but with a auto/4spd. all of them come with computer and all accessory . the reason I like this combo is that it is Buick engine and its different.

[Chevelle-list] torn seat belt
I'm just full of questions this week... My passenger side seat belt, female section, has a tear on the material that joins the bracket that bolts to the floor. The tear is not all the way across the belt, and since they're original belts I'd like to try to save it at all possible.. Can anyone recommend a thread or other type of material to sew the belt rip and to make it as strong as possible? Anyone else had to do this? Thanks, Jim '66 Malibu '59 Corvette __ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: [Chevelle-list] 69 El Camino update / headliner question
BTW, the El Camino is pretty much finished and I do plan to sell it. I still need to do the sail panels, sill plates, armrests & handles, but that's about it for cosmetics. Mechanically, I have to install the vac modulator line, get the Flowmaster pipes welded to my down-pipes, and get the wheels aligned. I know lots of you think I shouldn't sell this car, but I really have no place to keep it. It's been at a friend's house for about a year now and his wife wants to see it go. Contact me if interested. Thanks, John Nasta http://johnnasta.com/elcamino

RE: [Chevelle-list] fuel gauge
Dave, I think you need a new sender (or gauge). If it was to change from 90 to 240 straight you could just put a 150ohm resistor inline and be done. But since you want a scale (std chevy being 0 to 90 ohms) that would make it go from 150-240ohms instead. I dont know how much the bottom scale on that 240ohm gauge is but its either 0 or like 30 or so if i remember well. The sweep of the gauge would therefore be from approx. half tank (when tank is empty) to full tank (when tank is full) Ciao André i > ohms = resistance. You should be able to add a resistor inline, I would > think.
