Believe me you don't want to go there. Just stay away from restoration  shops 
in Fayetteville and you'll be better off!!!

David,

Your problem is  under the dash, like you suspect. You need to take the pin 
out of the clevis,  and adjust the clevis in(towards the firewall) about a 
1/8th inch. You need to  have a little bit of play right there, otherwise it 
will 
lock up just like you  described. It's a pretty common problem people have 
when upgrading their  master cylinder/boosters. You should have plenty of space 
under the dash. I  adjusted it under the dash on my 66. Good luck-

Re: [Chevelle-list] brake pedal rod adjustment

2008-05-21 Thread DK239
Well I figured out what I had to do. I tried pushing the pin out through  the 
hole but the hole and the pin did not line up. I tried taking the nuts off  
of the MC but it would not come out far enough with the lines attached. I ended 
 up taking the clutch pedal out which let the brake pedal come out. Then I  
screwed the clevis back down and reassembled. It sounds simple but believe me 
it  wasn't. I think part of the problem was the junk reproduction parts that 
The  Classic Chassis used when they butchered my car to start with.
 
I drove the car about three miles and they didn't lock up. Now I need to  
figure out why I have no pedal. I am going to bleed them and see if that  helps.

We are having a huge stink in NC right now about  legal titling of classic 
cars. I just delivered a 66 Chevelle I built for a  customer. It was titled in 
Ka. To get his NC title it was required for the  State inspector to come by my 
shop and verify the VIN matched the title. That  was not a problem but when he 
looked the build over closely and realized that  all that was original was 
the body and chassis he almost made us title it as a  2007 Custom. If he had 
pushed the point my customer would have been subjected  to emission 
requirements, 
safety inspection and his property tax would not  have been based on the book 
value, but build cost.
Then he walks over to my 65 Elky being built on a  Schwartz chassis with an 
LS2. Luckily it is already titled and registered or  it would be a 2008 Custom. 
Whew
Things are not as simple as they used to  be.

Why or how would someone just sell titles? Would these be forgeries?

I now have keys for my 66. I posted earlier that I had lost my keys. I took  
the lock out of the door and took it to a locksmith and he made me a new set.  
Thank God this was a replacement lock set, all of the locks take the same  
key.

Ok the front tires are 215x55x16 and the rears are 235x55x16. They are 
roughly 26 in tall.The front wheelwell sits two inches above the tire and the 
rear 
wheelwell sits 3 inches lower than the top of the tire. How long does it 
normally take for springs to settle in?

I loosened  the upper control arm nuts and bounced the front end and then 
retightened the nuts. It didn't make any difference. The car was a gift to me 
and 
was restored by a local shop so I'm not really sure if the bushings were 
lubed or not. The springs they installed are 320lb/in Elgins and I can't find 
any 
info on them anywhere.I have had the car about 3 months since the new springs 
were installed although I have not driven it but about 300 miles.

[Chevelle-list] Need help with spring selection

2006-12-08 Thread DK239
I have a 66 SS(cloned) with 454. The car has had a total restore. My problem 
is with the springs. When I first got the car the front end was almost sitting 
on the ground. The headers would hit the smallest rock and you could not 
drive over curbs or speed bumps. The front end would also bottom out anytime 
you 
hit a small bump or dip in the road. We had the front springs replaced and now 
the front end sits way to high. The rear end also sits to low and bottoms out 
when you have someone in the back. I have an assembly manual that shows the 
correct ride height but that is with 7.75 x14 tires and I am running 16's. I 
want to have a set of hotchiss 1 drop springs installed but I have no idea 
where 
that would put the ride height. Does anyone have a 66 BB that has the 1 drop 
springs with 16's and if you do could you send me the measurement from the 
ground to the edge of the fenderwell for the front and rear or the same 
measurements for a stock SS BB?

Thanks
David
