[Chevelle-list] Timing Question
Hi Again Guys I was wondering if anybody has had this happen. I wanted to give my timing alittle more adjustment as the advance cannister was hitting the intake manifold at 8 degrees BTDC when you turned the distributor...I made my marks on the distributor and lifted it to turn it one tooth on the cam gear Now the engine doesn't run very well at the 8 degree mark but runs really well at the 40 degree BTDC mark(it took me awhile to find this out as I kept advancing till things smoothed out)Any Ideas John

Re: [Chevelle-list] 69 chevelle rear disc brake & ? 4 Jim
Clyde the rears have a different width, but the ends where you mount the discs are the same bolt pattern. AND for Jim Were you able to connect the emergency brake?I've heard that is a problem with some calipers. rick On 5/8/07, Clyde <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hello;thanks for the reply,you said you put a set on your 65,mine is a 69,is there a difference between the years.ex:different rear axle assm on a 65 compared to a 69.Also,what year of components did you use.thanks alot Clyde - Original Message - *From:* Jim H.
