Re: [Chevelle-list] Timing Light

That's one trick timing light! How does it know 
what the mechanical advance is at idle? The way my dial up light works is you 
dial the desired timing, you bring the engine RPM up past where your mech. 
advance is all in (on my engine it is 2800) and you adjust the dist. until 
themark on the balanceraligns with TDC/ 0 degrees.

Ditto Mike ?? Why the addition of a Tach meter either included or stand 
alone is needed to map out both the vacuum and mechanical in Degrees and at 
what RPM.


You are able to verify  initial  timing setting with the  dial back 
advance set to your desired degree and strobe flash at the DTC 0 deg mark.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Phoenix Transmission

Read the following and you will see why I am so high on Phoenix 
Transmission in Weatherford, TX. and do recommend them to anyone.

Went this morning and picked up my 72 Monte Carlo from Phoenix in 
Weatherford.  A few weeks ago while driving it about 50 mph the 200-4R 
pretty much locked up.  I had purchased the trans in the year 2000 and 
installed it in 2002.  The car had been driven 530 miles with this 
transmission.  I loaded it on the trailer and took it to Phoenix last 
Tuesday and they called late Friday that it was ready.  Now the warranty 
had long run out on just time so I didn't really know what to expect as 
far as cost for the repair.  On arrival met with Scott, he is the one 
you will talk to when you take one in or pick one up.  He explained that 
the problem was a  defective part, the overdrive sprag had shattered 
throwing debris throughout the trans causing severe problem with pump, 
clutches, TC, and bearings as well as clogging up most of the passage 
ways.  Course I'm thinking I'm going to hear about how long the warranty 
has been out and sorry but it will cost X amount.  Scott explained what 
they had done was use the case and replaced everything with more up to 
date parts that are a lot better then what they had available in 2000. 
Then he said that everything was covered under warranty. But, he said 
they had put a Edelbrock bell crank on my carb to assist in adjusting 
the TV cable correctly so I owed $50 for that and I needed to move the 
cable a little to align it better and that my driveshaft was 1 too 
short and to replace it soon with the correct length, otherwise have fun 
driving it.

I drove it home and I must say it is much better in shifting and going 
into overdrive.  So I pretty much got a new transmission and a part 
installed that I was going to buy anyway for a total of $50. I am very 
happy.

Is a combination valve the same thing as a proportioning
valve?



Would a combination valve for a 1974 Malibu w/ front disc

Electric guage...no kinked line.  But you may have put teflon on the

as low as 0.  I keep a spare mechanical guage around just to test

[Chevelle-list] Cowl Induction question

2006-05-09 Thread steve502
I was wondering if anyone knew if you can still use your cowl induction air 
cleaner if you use an Edelbrock dual-plane intake manifold (performer RPM) with 
a Holley carb instead of the factory single-plane one?  Will there be enough 
clearance?  If not, what if I did not re-use the factory spacer?  It takes up 
about 2 inches.

I'm running a short-deck big-block

If I can't use this Edelbrock intake, is there one that I can use that has 
better flow than the stock factory one?

Thanks,
Steve

[Chevelle-list] Serpentine Belt Routing

Heya,

I'm trying to piece together a serpentine system, and I'm having a heck 
of a time figuring out the routing and placement of the accesories. I 
have just a power steering pump and alternator, as well as the water 
pump, crank pulley, and tensioner. The p/s pump is low on the driver's 
side, and the alternator is directly above it. The tensioner is high on 
the passenger's side, above the valve cover.


I have tried to find a diagram of the routing with no success. Can 
anyone recommend a webpage that can give me ideas? Do I need to mount 
the alt on the passenger's side? Get an idler pulley?


It's an 89 305 TPI on a stand, soon to be in a 67.

(as much as $4,000 per sale) for several years, and I've never had an
issue. And Ebay discourages the use of cash or cash wire transfers.
I lifted this from their site at
http://pages.ebay.com/help/pay/payment.html
Important: eBay does not recommend cash or cash wire
transfers as a payment method. If you pay by cash, you do not receive
protection under the eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program. You
also do not retain any proof of your payment, and will have little to
no remedy for transaction problems. 

Paying with Pay Pal 

  
PayPal is the preferred payment method for most eBay buyers and
sellers. PayPal enables you to send payments quickly and securely
online using a credit card or bank account. However, you should first
check that the seller offers PayPal as a payment method for their
listing. 
  
  
When you select PayPal as the payment method, you go to the
PayPal site, where you can send your payment. If you do not already
have a PayPal account, you can sign up for an account. At PayPal, you
can choose how you would like to fund your PayPal payment (for example,
using a checking account, credit card, or PayPal balance) and then send
the payment. If you use PayPal, the seller may require a credit card
billing address registered at PayPal, sometimes called a "confirmed"
address. 
  

Advantages 

  
Payment is traceable. You can track the status of your payment
using My eBay or your PayPal account. 
  
  
Is immediate and convenient. You pay directly from the item
listing page and payment is deposited directly into the seller's
account. 
  
  
Does not require you to use your credit card online (you can
transfer directly from your bank account). Sellers don't see your
credit card number (it is safely encrypted through PayPal's server),
which limits the risk of unauthorized use. 
  
  
Offers PayPal Buyer Protection on qualifying items - up to
$1,000 in free coverage. Additional limited protection is offered
through PayPal's Money Back Guarantee.

I wouldn't trust paypal as far as
I could spit,Larry. An electronic wire transfer of funds with your
banker involved in the process is the only way I would proceed. Sold a
turbo CBX Honda to a customer in Western Australia awhile back and
that's how I handled that transaction.

2006-05-09 Thread Larry Shouse



I have a 1968 138VIN Chevelle SS body available for

The body has no front clip, no trunk lid, and the 
doors on it now are 69 doors needing new skins. It's been mini tubbed and floors 
and trunk area has had patch panels put in, and rear quarters patched in. Needs 
some welding done, but no rust on this body. The VIN tag is still attached to 
the car, but the cowl tag is off the car, and is creased. I have a clear FL 
title.

It's a 68SS body is sitting on a 72 Malibu chassis 
right now. The chassis has a 307(missing intake  carb) in it, a T350 tranny 
and an open 10 bolt rear. Before the body was thrown out, the Malibu ran 
OK.

No wiring harness in this car.

Comes with 68 bucket seats (needs new covers), and 
misc parts, 15" rally wheels with tires with good tread still on 
it.

If anybody is interested, please email me off list

  Important: eBay does not recommend cash or cash wire 
  transfers as a payment method. If you pay by cash, you do not receive 
  protection under the eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program. You also 
  do not retain any proof of your payment, and will have little to no remedy 
  for transaction problems. 
  Paying with Pay Pal 
  

PayPal is the preferred payment method for most eBay buyers and 
sellers. PayPal enables you to send payments quickly and securely online 
using a credit card or bank account. However, you should first check 
that the seller offers PayPal as a payment method for their listing. 


When you select PayPal as the payment method, you go to the PayPal 
site, where you can send your payment. If you do not already have a 
PayPal account, you can sign up for an account. At PayPal, you can 
choose how you would like to fund your PayPal payment (for example, 
using a checking account, credit card, or PayPal balance) and then send 
the payment. If you use PayPal, the seller may require a credit card 
billing address registered at PayPal, sometimes called a "confirmed" 
address. 
  Advantages 
  

Payment is traceable. You can track the status of your payment using 
My eBay or your PayPal account. 

Is immediate and convenient. You pay directly from the item listing 
page and payment is deposited directly into the seller's account. 

Does not require you to use your credit card online (you can transfer 
directly from your bank account). Sellers don't see your credit card 
number (it is safely encrypted through PayPal's server), which limits 
the risk of unauthorized use. 

Offers PayPal Buyer Protection on qualifying items - up to $1,000 in 
free coverage. Additional limited protection is offered through PayPal's 
Money Back Guarantee. --

I have a 1950 Studebaker listed on eBay for 
sale. An eBay member contacted me saying he is from Norway, and would like 
to bid on the car. He has 40+ positive feedbacks and no negatives, and is 
willing to pay for the car through Paypal in full, and will hire a car 
transport company to pick up the vehicle once I'm satisfied with the 
payment.

I've heard of some scams involving buyers from 
overseas. What's your thoughts?

I just recieved today a new pair of rear wheels 
for putting my slicks on. I custom ordered them from Pete 
Paulsen. Trying to find a 15x8 wheel with the proper backspacing for 
an early A-body in anything but steel is nearly impossible.I 
checked with all the major suppliers, including Stockton wheel and 
Wheel vintiques before making my decision, but all were at least 2 months 
out and considerably more money. The wheels are high quality for a 
reasonable price. Wanted to pass that on to others looking as 
well.
