Re: [Chevelle-list] I need an opinion
Read the October 2003 issue of Car Craft pgs.#38-39 They have some very favorable things to say about Vortec heads. Do your home work about what flex plate and torque converter to use with that one pc. seal crank. I had a roler 305 with vortec heads in a 97 GMC and it just flew! BTW- my local GM parts manager would never BS me about missaplication if my crate motor blew up. Because they all look like the same application when sitting on the parts room floor. Thay have sold me crate motors for other missaplications and just really want my continued business. Just my 2 cents worth. Eric...

I have a 67 Elky. I plan on putting a new 350 engine into it soon. It will be used for a daily driver so I don't need too much h.p. I was planning on a GM crate engine, but found out since it didn't come with a 350, that it makes it a misapplication and the warranty would only be for 12 months or 12k miles instead of the advertised 3yr. 36k mile warranty. That's still a great warranty, but I found a rebuilt VORTEC ROLLER motor from a very reputable dealer that comes with a 3yr 36k warranty. My question is this, are the Vortec heads a better way to go? I plan on using an Edelbrock 650 cfm carb , HEI ignition and stock exhaust manifolds. If I'm not planning high revving are the roller rockers necessary or better? I'm not too familiar with this kind of set up and look forward to advice from the experts. Thanks, Fred 67 SS 396 67 Elky _ Tired of spam?

Anyone have any pics of the wiper motor on a 68 that they could email me off-list? My 68 has no wiper motor or linkage/transmission and I have been searching for one in the junkyards. Can they motors be taken from any other vehicles? I looked at a 71 and it looked like a different bolt pattern, but didn't have a way to double check.

I'm restoring a 64 Malibu SS Hardtop and Conv. here, so I'm out looking for parts. As the result, I recently found an individual who stated he had the chrome pieces I needed. I wrote him and told him if he would provide a list of the parts and conditions, as well as a total package price, I'd more than likely buy them all. He sent me a list of parts with prices and some sketchy details on condition. So, I immediately wrote him back, asking for photo's of the key items in the list. He sent me back a statement that he had just sold those items. So this makes me believe he never had these items at all, since I never received any photo's of any of the parts listed. As a result, I wrote him back and told him I'd never do any business with him. It is no different than offering to sell a car to one person, and while they are reviewing the car, it gets sold to another person. I mean, I responded to his emails very very shortly after receiving them here, and never was offered a phone number to be able to call him. So I guess what I am saying is, that if you buy parts online, get photo's before sending funds. I think this guy was just scamming me. Thomas W.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 71 chevelle HEI problem
Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List The reason that I ran a relay on my 67 ElCamino is that the wires that power the ign terminal on the fuze block are still quite small and the current has to run through a great distance ignition switch circuit and interior harness that has small wires too. By runnung a relay you can have a very short power wire and use a big a wire as you can find. I ran my #8 wire from the positive cable on the starter This helps create cleaner and higher coil discharge voltage that can add to lower et's. Using a relay is not to ease installation - it adds performance.

Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List On my 67 El Camino I have a 30A bocsh relay powered by the purple-run and yellow-start original ignition wires. It works just fine! If the yellow wire from the starter was connected to the wrong terminal on the solenoid I think that that could cause a problem. Check your solenoid. I have seen some GM starters that can bolt on but don't have the right solenoid for older cars.(The yellow wire brings power to the Ignition while the car is cranking.-If it was powered all the time than the relay would never shut off) Eric... - Original Message - From: Spencer, Darrell [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: November 26, 2001 3:24 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-List] 71 chevelle HEI problem Replies to this message are sent to The Chevelle Mailing List You didn't say what the load was for the relay, only the supply.
