Timothy,Gene again,I just went thru this last month,I had oil pressure problems with my great Jasper crate motor,350/350.I wanted to check my main bearings without removing the engine,it is possible but the work involved is not worth your time.I was able to do so,I had to remove my bell housing for the oil pan to clear it has to come off towards the rear after you have jacked up the engine as high as possible!Than you also have to insert blocks of wood when the engine is raised between the motor mounts and pads,than you have to balance the motor with a jack so it does not fallout and hurt you or make up a rear engine support that will hang on to the firewall and attach to the engine,have I still got your attention?As said earlier it is really a lot easier to remove the engine. In my case all I wanted to do was plactigage my bearings,but the damage to mine was far more than I expected,returned the plastigage to Auto Zone and I removed the engine after all was said and done.The time I wasted doing all this because I was thick headed the engine comes out a lot faster and as a by product you can clean and do a better job of replacing your pan,etc:In my case I have the equipment to remove the engine but I was being thickheaded!Later Gene From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net Subject: Chevelle-list Digest, Vol 33, Issue 42 Date: Sun, 16 Apr 2006 22:12:56 -0600 Send Chevelle-list mailing list submissions to Chevelle-list@chevelles.net To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://chevelles.net/mailman/listinfo/chevelle-list_chevelles.net or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can reach the person managing the list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of Chevelle-list digest...

Larry,As Devin said regarding the hole in your floor for your Comp + shifter.I had fabricated a tunnel cover when installing the Comp.+ shifter in my 69 El Camino a while back.But I have the engine out now and it is going back in this coming Thursday.While it's out I replaced my cover with the non console tunnel cover and I used rivnuts to install so that it is removable for maintenance to the shifter.If you plan to install a console I would use the console tunnel cover for future installation.You want to close up that hole in the floor.Later Gene From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net Subject: Chevelle-list Digest, Vol 33, Issue 42 Date: Sun, 16 Apr 2006 22:12:56 -0600 Send Chevelle-list mailing list submissions to Chevelle-list@chevelles.net To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://chevelles.net/mailman/listinfo/chevelle-list_chevelles.net or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can reach the person managing the list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of Chevelle-list digest...

I went with a early style reverse pump in aluminum because of hose issues, (it came without holes so since my radiator has a fitting I will run the heater return to it and the heater supply still comes out the intake.) Using the earlier pump would allow the use of aftermarket underdrive pulleys. I am using the factory pulleys on mine but the water pump pulley has a different bolt pattern so if you get the whole set up and don't use the original water pump you will need to get an earlier pulley. The alt bracket is made to bolt to vortec heads so all three bolts will line up if you use vortec heads. On my vette alum heads only one will line up. I plan on using a thick piece of aluminum strap and bolt it to the head and there is an unused threaded hole in the back of the bracket which will line up.

I would suggest getting a good radiator preferable aluminum. I'm sure other people have other opinions. But this combination worked well for me.

Dale,Gene here I have a friend who i s big into BMW's.He races them and owns three of them.He told me more than likely it is for your tire pressure set for the computer to reference your tire pressure.You air your tires up to your the pressure you want,turn on the ignition switch and then press and depress that switch and your computer references that setting and as the wheels rotate the computer can read the rotation of the tires.If one starts to loose air a transducer to the wheel sends the information to the computer and it can tell by the tire size that you are loosing air by comparing the diameter to the other tires.That's what he told me and I hope I told you right.I am at work now and he said he would bring me his manual to verify that he is right.Hope this helps,more info to come if you want it.Later Gene (69 ELKY) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Chevelle-list Digest, Vol 14, Issue 24 Date: 20 Sep 2004 12:00:13 -0700 Send Chevelle-list mailing list submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://chevelles.net/mailman/listinfo/chevelle-list_chevelles.net or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You can reach the person managing the list at [EMAIL PROTECTED] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than Re: Contents of Chevelle-list digest...
