RE: [Chevelle-list] RE:Power Window Kit
Factory ones do that if they are old and worn out or if the regulator needs to be lubricated. A new OEM type motor with a lubricated regulator will not go up slow. I replaced the motors in my Olds and the difference was incredible.

RE: [Chevelle-list] Tall deck big block
It will fit but you are looking at very LOW compression, you could probably get some +400 rods, rebalance and be good to go. Taller blocks are usually the way to go to keep the piston pin out of the ring lands in a long rod stroker.

RE: [Chevelle-list] Tall deck big block
Thanks guys. I called Scat yesterday and this is what I found out... I can use a standard 454 crank and pistons but I would need to get longer rods, custom headers, intake spacers, longer pushrods, and a different distributor. The tech guy at Scat also said a tall deck can get expensive quickly. Plus it weighs more than a standard deck block. Now I know. Thanks!

Re: [Chevelle-list] Tall deck big block
I'll keep my eyes out for a 454 block for you. One ton pickups used a lot of four bolt blocks. If it were me,I wouldn't care one bit whether it was a two bolt or four bolt block as a two bolt can easily handle over 750hp w/o problems. A Mark IV block would be preferable over a Mark V or VI also as parts are cheaper more available than the later blocks. Around here,a good Mark IV 454 four bolt block will bring anywhere from $400-800,depending on prep work needed. Good move on blowing off the tall deck idea. They are way more trouble than they are worth.

RE: [Chevelle-list] RE:Power Window Kit
Reminds me of a funny story--I was working on a car that had an aftermarket alarm system on it. Part of the system automatically closed the electric windows when the key was turned off. I had the car running to check something, I leaned in the door turned the key off. All of a sudden, the windows started up, I just barely was able to get my head out before it closed too far. Put a pretty good scrape on my temple and scared the living he!! out of me! After that I always pulled the window fuse when that car came back to the shop.

Quite the contrary, Bill. Interior was complete custom from dash to seats, to full console.
