Re: [Chevelle-list] BBC vs. SBC Pulleys
Ok, I think I figured it out. The SBC pulley has a different depth. I found two pulleys that I was told was BBC. Here are the numbers: Crank: 3937787 Water Pump: 3890419 Now, is it true that the long water pump pulleys are the same bbc, and sbc? If anyone can confirm that these will fit BBC, I'd appreciate it.

[Chevelle-list] Re Haggerty insurance
Thanks for this info. I couldnt find this info on the webpage. Liability is th most important thing for me. Dont take me wrong, I love my car, but I rather lose the car than have a low liablitiy IF something bad happens. Craig, What are you paying and what are your limits?

RE: [Chevelle-list] Off Topic: Chevy Trucks
Matt, I owned a 64 panel and wish I had never sold it! Had a wooden floor in the back and I got about 30 mpg with the old in line 250. The inline sixes, 250 and 292, that Chevy used during that time were, IMO, bulletproof and can be built to run like a scalded dog. The truck could be worth between $500 to $1150 depending on how much the interior is intact and how little rust there is. Check under the doors and the rear quarters for signs of rust and/or previous repairs. These old trucks are notorious for rust starting around/behind the rear wheels and rocker panels. If I lived closer, I would love to take a look and consider buying out from under you if it wouldn't be grounds for divorce; I've been cut off.

Anyone know how rare a 1967 Chevy Panel Delivery is? I've spotted one out here in CA that appears pretty straight and rust free, but the straight-6 is blown. Seems like a perfect candidate for a 350. I really want a 67-70 truck, but the panel looks cool! -Matt
