They don't sell retail, so the information would be useless.

Big difference Trooper.One is a technical question and another is really a private business matter. It's almost like asking him what his price as a dealer is on the parts he sells.

RE: [Chevelle-List] bucket seat foams - 1966-69 and 1970-72 A-body cars
Thanks Josh. Yes, it is very different for a consumer to tell other people where to get a good deal than it is for a retailer to give out the names of his suppliers. The consumer has nothing to lose but the business owner does. We do lots of research to find these places and usually have to pay thousands of dollars for a buy-in (initial inventory order) in order to qualify for a wholesale account. To go through all of that and then give away the information the same day so that people can go around you is business suicide. I don't want to make a big deal out of it because they don't sell to the public anyway and also because I don't feel like I should have to defend this one. Ask any parts house to email 600 people a list of their suppliers and see if they say ok. - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sorry, but on this one I've got to side with John. I think we're lucky to have an inside man on this list because the guys that do this for a living always have better information than civilians. I thought the heads-up on those seat foams was solid information and that helps us all to build better cars for less money.

I've been thinking about just having the iron heads on my 402 ported and swapping in a bigger cam, new intake and carb. Does anyone have any recommendations on a cam? I've got a garden variety big block with 350 hp and I'm looking to bump that 75 or more if I can get a fat torque curve in the bargain.

John, Do they have the foam for bench seats?Dwight Tri-State Chevelles 72 Elky/L98/TPI/700R4 www.chevelles.net/tristate From: "John Nasta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Olds Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Chevelle List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Chevelle-List] bucket seat foams - 1966-69 and 1970-72 A-body cars Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2003 16:24:31 -0500 Just an FYI. I found a new supplier for bucket seat foam sets and unlike my previous supplier (who always seemed to have them on backorder), they list separate sets for 1966-69 and 1970-72. They say that the hog ring locations are different for each of these year ranges even though the overall shape of the foam is the same, and that these foams will be a better fit than the ones that are supposed to fit all of those years because the hog ring indentations are in the right places. Anyway, just passing along the info that there seems to be a source for more accurate reproduction foam sets (they are also more expensive, so I will continue to carry the others for the price-conscious, just remember to order early because they are always backed up).

RE: [Chevelle-List] bucket seat foams - 1966-69 and 1970-72 A-body cars
Hi Dwight, The bench sets are available right now for 1968-72. You'd need to specify whether you have spring or foam backrests. Unfortunately they are $25 to ship because they are so huge and fairly heavy. You can find them at SF00130 and SF00023.
