Re: [Chevelle-list] 66 Chevelle
I use Goodmark metal on all my personal and customer vehicles if I can't use NOS. My only qualm that I have is I put a full quarter on my 71 and a customers 70 (both in that cars case) and they are ever so slightly different on the very edge going down the top. It doesn't matter that much if you are replacing both sides, the 66-67 quarters are second to none, they were spot on. I have used a few of their Mopar parts and it was great stuff. Anyway hope this helps.

Re: RE: [Chevelle-list] 66 chevelle
The trunk pan drops off on the right and left sides behind the rear wheels and the bottom edge of the drop off panel is welded to the rear quarter panel. On my 70 Nova, water leaking from the back window sat in this little trough and rusted thru the drop off panel, the rear quarter and the inner and outter wheelhouse. The only way I got to it was to cut out the lower portion of the rear quarter panel between the rear wheel and bumper. I replaced it along with the making patches for the wheelhouses then I installed a rear quarter patch panel. My first experience at doing this and turned out pretty good but took me A LONG TIME due to inexperience.

I have a 1966 chevelle w/ small block 400 CI I am buying new headers! I am thinking about going with hooker super comp. 1 3/4 inch they are expensive $350.00 (black) but all the tubes are the same! I have alum. Heads with angle plugs, this engine will have about 450 horsepower! What do you guys recommend? I also need clearance from steering shaft! Would you guys buy the super comp's or buy ceramic coated headers?? Doug Waterford Michigan
Re: [Chevelle-list] 66 chevelle headers
For a quality pair of headers like Lemons or others,you can easily spend $900 and more. So,$350 isn't too bad. However,there's no way I would ever use painted headers again. For the coated Super Comps,you're probably looking at $500 or more,,,right? If that's the case,why not consider some stainless headers from Stainless Works? They will build whatever you want for around $600.

Re: [Chevelle-list] 66 Chevelle Cam Swap
Just something to keep in mind... If the engine block is a 1965 or 1966 casting, be sure that you have the appropriate groove machined in the rear cam journal. Most cam manufacturers offer this service, but a decent machine shop should be able to machine the groove as well. Here is an excerpt from Federal Mogul's website: Finally, it is important to note that 1965 and 1966 engines require that a 3/16 groove be machined into the center of the rear cam journal for proper lubrication. Absence of this groove will result in engine failure. Use the 1404M cam bearing set if using a grooved journal cam in a later model block.

RE: [Chevelle-list] 66 Chevelle Cam Swap
They just did a cam swap on a 66 small block on HPTV. The only clearance problem was the rear of the bumper. If you find that the case, you can do what they did and jack the engine up a couple of inches or drop the front bumper.

Re: [Chevelle-List] '66 Chevelle remote mirror confirmation / additionalquestion
Thanks to all those who responded - some questions create some good dialog! Larry, or anyone else, my '66 SS was built the 3rd week May 1966. I have searched the restoration supplier catalogs and like you said have found only 1967 drivers remote mirror as a reproduction - nothing listed for '66. Would a '67 drivers remote be of the same style as to what was put on SS built in May of '66? Kurt, thanks for the lead, I went through my '66 Factory Assembly Manual and stuck in the back was the Z19 option specs - and sure enough I located the screw holes, clips and wire leads tucked away for the Hood and Trunk lights, but the light assemblies have long been removed. Krister Kurt and Rocky: yikesss out of that somehow i got that it was for the passenger door!!! well anyway what i meant was yes they made a remote for 66 CHEVELLES. the early remotes were the same as 64 and 65 CHEVELLES and the later 67 built cars were a 67 (it maybe for 68 too) only mirror. they make the later one in reproduction. i have never seen a passenger remote or a matching non remote for any chevelle.

Larry, The Exact Frame measurment are in the shop manual. It shows the frame and the body mount and frame demension from a datum line. I have cut and welded two frames .

Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question
Larry Sounds like you're in the southern climates if they only want 500 for a convertible and 100 for an elky. Lucky man. We have to get them brought up to Canada and then they cost an arm and a leg. Its for this reason that I'm shortening an elky frame to put under my 64 convertible. Its a Beaumont sport deluxe ( canadian only model ) so is quite rare and thus worth all the bother. All running gear is std Chev. In answer to your question I got the measurements from the shop manual. While doing all my research I had fellow club members fax me in the frame diagrams from 64 thru 67 manuals ( both canadian and american versions ). All show the same dimensions ( although 1 diagram was in fractions of an inch ) Last weekend I removed the frame from an elky and am now sending it out to get sandblasted.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question
Larry, thanks for all the numbers. For the most part numbers by Paul Herd matches the GM parts catalog I have but not 100%. You'll note a discrepancy between Paul Herd and Hollander regarding 66 and 67 convertibles. I believe Hollander is correct. I've spent the last 2 years trying to find just the right frame to put under my 64 convertible. Crawled under a lot of cars and checked frame part numbers versus the GM book. So far it is bang on. As I said originally the dimensions and mounting points are all the same from 64 thru 67. The differences are the lack of a slight indent in 64 and the different spring pocket in 67. Convertibles and el caminos are boxed thru the center section and coupes and station wagons are C shaped. While the differences exist they do not preclude using any year frame under any year body. Just change the springs if using a 67 under a 64 thru 66. By the way, the part number is stamped in the left outside of the frame ahead of the rear bumper bracket attaching slots. You'll also find the manufacturer and date. The difference in length of the coupe/convertible versus the station wagon/el camino is 3.17 inches. Ted You can find the dimensions in any shop manual or factory assembly manual. The 3.xx inches I referred to last night is expressed as 3.17 inches in some diagrams and 3 3/16 in others From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question Date: Sat, 21 Sep 2002 03:17:01 EDT According to my info: Chevrolet parts by the number by Paul Herd 1964-65 chevelle except el camino or convertible #3837537 or 9773003 usage: 1964-65 chevelle, except convertible, pickup or station wagon 1964-65 convertible #3837597 usage: 1964-65 chevelle convertible 1966-67 all but el camino or convertible #3837527 usage: 1966-67 chevelle, except convertible, station wagon, or pickup 1966-67 convertible #389 usage:1966-67 chevelle convertible 1966 el camino #3895 usage:1966 El Camino or chevelle station wagon 1967 el camino #3893329 usage: 1967 elcamino or chevelle station wagon 1968-70 (this book only goes to 70 but it will work to 72) #6263666 usage: 1968-72 chevelle hardtop, coupe, or convertible except Monte Carlo; 1968-72 buick skylark hardtop, coupe, or convertible except 400 or 455 CI, 1968-72 olds cutlass coupe, hardtop, or convertible: 1968-72 Pontiac tempest/lemans coupe,hardtop or convertible except 455 CI notes: sedan has a longer frame and will not interchange 1968-72 el camino #6263665 usage 1968-72 el camino or chevelle station wagon CHEVELLES ADP Hollander 64-65-66 2dr:sdn.,h.t.,4dr sdn h.t (66) / interchange #1210A 64-66 s.w 1209B 64-66 el camino (pickup) / interchange #1209B 67 sdn h.t. / interchange #1313 67 conv. / interchange #1314 67 s.w. el camino / interchange #1458 68-72 : el camino s.w. / interchange #1941 68-72 2 dr exc. el camino / interchange #1943 68-71 4 dr. sdn h.t. / interchange #1956 72 4 dr. sdn. h.t. / interchange #1942 note B fits A using GM part #3838043 trans. support assembly (cross member) as you can see there are many differences between the two books. this was the first i heard about 64 being different than 65.i have done many chevelle swaps over the years and take many things for granted. it seems many of the ones they show not working will work will very little modifications it really wouldn't be very funny to have one all powder coated and ready to drop a body on it and find out it isn't the right one. back to the original question. if you cut close to 4 inches off that el camino frame it will work on the chevelle.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question
Good move on getting another frame, I am going through this with my 69, it's a nightmare car. Nothing is lining up the way it should b/c the frame is bent worse than I thought it was. Also be prepared for the body structure to be screwed up in some places when you go to put it back together. Tom
Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question
Chad: not completely the case. yes the el camino frame will work but you need to cut 4 inches out of the back section. also the station wagon is the same length. the convertible frame is the same length as the hardtop. the nice thing about either the el camino, station wagon or convertible is that the frame is boxed. 64-65 are the same, 66-67 are the same and 68-72 are the same. Also any other "A" body frame will work. Larry (z)

Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 Chevelle SS frame question
64 frames are stand alone, 65 66 are the same and 67 are stand alone from a purity point. But all share the same measurements.They can all be made to interchange. Read on. In 65 with the addition of big blocks GM had to add a small indent into the front cross member to facilitate changing the starter without having to raise the motor. The 67 with a progressive ( tapered ) rear spring has a different top socket than the other years. Also convertibles and el caminos are boxed in the center section. Coupes and station wagons have a C shaped center section. Station wagon and El caminos are 3.xx inches longer than the coupes and convertibles. The good news is that the extra 3.xx inches is at the rear between the outside mount behind the rear axle and back cross member. So yes an el camino can be used under a coupe with only a small revision. It will be heavier but stronger. And this isn't a bad idea with some of the extra muscle some guys add. If you use a 67 under a 64 thru 66 then you must also use 67 rear springs. The convertible hutilizes more mounting points but these points are on all frames. Sorry for the long winded answer but before you rush out and buy something research it thoroughly. Research is cheaper than parts that don't fit.

Re: [Chevelle-List] 66 chevelle
Lets put it this way I have 4 66s, and none of them are perfect and they are all goingto be the death of me.the first one a true SS I saved since I was 6 to buy (I am 20 now bought the car when I was 16), paid $6500 for it now have over $13000 because of a bunch of punk kids who thought it was funny to throw paint at me. The second I bought right before my first one got crashed, I paid $500 for it and it is a 4 door 194 six and a Poweglide, drove it home with hardly any brakes. The third I saved from being turned into a race car and has no motor, trans, driveline, trashed interior, but on a bright note I found enough tools and parts in it to make up the difference. The fourth and final is a true SS with no motor or tranny but about 5 or 6 cars worth of chrome and such and my only reason for getting it is cause it had the original steering wheel and radio, I traided my 69 stepside that I had $800 in so I think I came out pretty fair. As fo! r the one that you describe it would be a good project worth a couple grand depending on what you want.
