Re: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
Clint: GM used the Saginaw 4 speed behind low HP cars. According to my books it didn't show up in the chevelle until 1966. I believe anything rated under 300 HP was standard equipment with it except the z28 302 (rated at 290 HP but really had about 360 HP). Larry (z)
RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
The Saginaw has been around most of our ~classic~ era. I found a general exploded view of a Saginaw 4-speed for 66-71's. See http://www.team67.com/groups/index.htm and click the "Group 4.000 Transmission - Brakes" link. I think (not positive) that all Saginaw 4-speeds were iron.

Re: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
Yeah,I've used the VB&P billet spacers before,Herb,and they are premium quality. But,I would have to run a 3" to 4" spacer and that is a bunch. Does anyone know when GM went to Saginaw 4spds and what cars used them? Mine is cast iron and not aluminum,if that helps. The reason I was thinking of running a TH400 is because the car will have a big inch Rat (496" or larger) someday. With that much torque available,I could run a 3.25 rear cog easily.

RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
"B" is for Baltimore and "K" is for Kansas City. 1 = Chevrolet 33 = Std 6-cyl Elky 34 = Std V-8 Elky 35 = Custom 6-cyl Elky 36 = Custom V-8 Elky 80 = 2-dr sedan pickup (Elky) 0-9 = Year Letter = Assembly plant Next numbers in VIN are sequential plant numbers Custom Elkys had better trim and interior - like the difference between a 300/300 Deluxe and Malibu.

RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
Thanks. That's what I thought. 69-72s have reflectors in the bumper where the 68 backup lights are, but it is the same bumper. The 69-72 tailgate is a different p/n from the 68 because of the backup lights (or absence thereof respectively).

'68 bumpers have the back-up lights in them. 1969-72 have them in the tailgate.

RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
Are you sure they were shaved? Maybe the entire quarter panels were replaced. The replacement panels do not come w/ the marker light holes cut out. Note that the original panel has the hole in: http://johnnasta.com/elcamino/pages/MVC-633S.htm and the replacement panel does not in: http://johnnasta.com/elcamino/pages/MVC-637S.htm In my case, the hole will be cut in the new panel to match the original.

RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street
The rear bumper is the same from 68 to 72. I'm actually not sure off-hand what the difference is between a 68 and 69-72 tailgate. Is it the backup lights?
