[Chevelle-list] Are your tires safe?

2008-08-11 Thread howardholland
A friend of mine sent me this video.
A must see!!!
http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerindex?id=4826897

I didn't know tires had a date when they were made,
A lot have died,because people didn't know.

your new tires could be 10years old or older..not safe !!!

Take a look and then check your tires..I will.

  I know what you mean Howard...My 327 has a mild cam..465 lift 224 duration 
@.050 on both intake and exhaust...headers...roller rockersweiand stealth 
dual plane intake and a couple other small bolt-ons...I know Holleys are good 
once you get them right..but man..I just can't seem to find that spot..I've 
just heard that the Edelbrock is a much more forgiving carb if you know what I 
mean...

John,
I had a Holly 600 and had the same problem and it wouldn't suppy all the gas my 
350 needed.

Edelbrocks are easy to play with and get it right the first time.

  I was wondering what type of carb most list members were running...I am 
thinking of switching over to an Edelbrock on my 327...The Holley 600 I have on 
there..(almost brand new) i'm finding I am constantly trying to get it to run 
better and just can't seem to get it right...Edelbrocks I am told aren't as 
fussy and are alot easier to work with and set...You know...Set it and forget 
it!!!

Re: [Chevelle-list] Windshield install

2007-06-08 Thread howardholland
Its not a problem,just make sure you install new clips to hold down the 
trim,if the old ones are bad.


The real fun starts is when you put the trim back on and you have new paint 
to deal with..opps


I scratch my new paint...Have at it.

 I've heard that a windshield is installed in two stages. First to the 
body, then a second step to install the trim etc. Is this correct? I would 
like to install the front and back glass and later have the trim done. Is 
this practical?

The factory literature does not include the 4 when using model numbers.

5680 is the Custom El Camino w/ V-8, 5580 with 6 cyl.
see below for a factory pic:

The wheel opening and rocker trim is the same as an SS except for the rear 
qtr which is longer on El C's and wagons.

Jim,

There's not much you can do! But you could pour some primer and pour some 
paint into the area's

you can't reach,using a paint gun. It's messy,but it works.

  Subject: [Chevelle-list] Subject: Paint Question


  My frame was sandblasted and epoxy primered about 3 years ago. I know from a 
previous question/answer that I have to rough the surface of the epoxy primer 
before I can paint it.

  My question is,  what about all the places in the frame that I cannot reach 
to scuff up?  What will happen to the paint?  Just not stick?  I will be using 
Eastwood's Chassis Black for top coat. 
  Any suggestions?
  Thanks in advance.
