Re: [Chevelle-List] New GTO pics - what has happened to our beloved A-body cousi
I agree, I think the new GTO is a great step in the right direction for GM. Galen - Original Message - From: Capt Crunch To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 7:06 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] New GTO pics - what has happened to our beloved A-body cousi IMO the retro look is getting kinda old for me. Seems to me that alot of American vehicles have lost their glamour with some of the public so this retro motion is trying to get some consumers back from foriegn cars.I think the V6/4 banger fwd motion was decided back in the early to mid-80's when gas mileage became bigger and fwd allowed manufactures to produce smaller cars with more room as they could eliminate the driveshaft bump. Also to add to it... fwd cars are much nicer to drive in the winter up north here and also if you haven't noted are much more expensive on the labor side of things to fix as they are more cramped in the engine bay. I like many of them... but IMO they hold way too much of the market share and the rwd and awd options hold far too little. I also agree that this is probably part of the reason for the who truck/suv craze. I personally do love the GTO concept... and that is because for the first time in a good 10-20 years you can get a 2 door sedan that actually has a semi-usable back seat with V8 power and even a manual. That flat out rocks! Also since we are on new cars... look at the hp battles begining again... Hemi's, 390hp Cobra mustangs, the GTO is going to have a 405 hp LS6 option, and if the websites are correct the 2005 Lightning could have 500 hp! I guess I will say enjoy it while it lasts... Mikey

I recently subscribed to the list and have enjoyed reading the many emails, although some are really technical for me. Are there any girl owners in the Chevelle List? I own a 1966 Chevelle Malibu, black exterior/black interior, with a holley carb, 327 small block, has a snowflake exh. manifold. 4 speed manual, saginaw trans. Supposedly it has a 1966 Covette engine in it - I'll let you know what the numbers are so someone can let me know if it really is. Have owned it about 10 years now. Used to do alot of work on it myself, but I've found a mechanic I trust to work on it. It's a fun car. Ann

Re: [Chevelle-List] new to the list
Gary, Any chance you're looking for engine parts? I have a '64 4-bbl intake (E 5 4 date, 3844459 casting) and a set of ordinary small-valve (1.72/1.50) heads taking up space in my basement. Even if you don't need them the mere fact that you have a '64 makes them more valuable to you than to me. I work at FABCO so shipping would be, uh, non-existent. ;^) Email me offlist at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you're interested. Will consider trades for Pontiac parts and/or Pizza Extreme pizza. ;^) Was this a local acquisition? I read the State Journal classifieds somewhat regularly and don't recall seeing a '64 convertible recently. What's the story? Since you're in the area I assume you're aware of the Jefferson swap meet and the other events put on by Madison Classics. Keep an eye on www.jeffersonswapmeet.com for info. Brad O.

RE: [Chevelle-List] new list member
Title: RE: [Chevelle-List] new list member Sounds like you have a 67 rear end. The reason I suspect a 67 as opposed to a 64-66 is the way the springs mount. I had a 68-72 rear in my 67 and finally swapped it out a couple of years ago for a 67 unit and nothing else was changed - springs, brake lines, u-joint, shocks, etc. * 1964-67 Chevelle rear ends were manufactured by the Chevrolet Gear and Axle Division. The housing measures 56.5 inches from flange to flange, and with the brake drums in place, the total width is 60.5 inches. * 1968-72 Chevelle rear end housings measure 58.5 inches from flange to flange, and with the brake drums in place, the total width is 62.5 inches Dale McIntosh TC Gold #92/ACES #1709 67SS/67 Elky -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-chevelle- The other day i read on the list that the rearend is 62 1/2'' OD at the axles, i measured mine last night in preparation for a 9'' and it is 60 3/4'' without the drums, does my car have the wrong rearend or was the gentleman mistaken at 62 1/2''

Welcome to the list! Any chance you're from the Indy area? [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello everyone I joined the list a few weeks ago and have found it very informative. I bought a 69 back in June at the street machine nationals in Indy, it has all the SS 396 badging but had a 94 centerbolt 350 with TH 400 trans and 3:73 12 bolt posi. I'm pretty sure it's not a real SS since i got it at a good price but i got what i was looking for, a solid body with original floors and trunk in great shape, power steering and brakes, its GM firethorn red with black interior. Anyway it now has a 502 and built 700R 4, I just got it running last weekend and it is amazing to say the least. The other day i read on the list that the rearend is 62 1/2'' OD at the axles, i measured mine last night in preparation for a 9'' and it is 60 3/4'' without the drums, does my car have the wrong rearend or was the gentleman mistaken at 62 1/2''. The other thing is that i put Torque Tech 3'' exhaust on it with 3 chamber Flowmasters and it sounds great I have 2 chambers on my Impala SS with 2 1/2'' pipes and it drones at low RPM, I highly recomend the 3 chambers, great tone but not too loud at least not for my tastes.

Today there was a meeting held with Chevelle Enthusiasts from the areas ofSouthern WesternOhio,Eastern Indiana, and Northern Kentucky. These people officially and formally voted to form a club in these areas known as "Tri-State Chevelles". We are just starting out, and have only had the Internet to recruit members from at this point, butwe had 14 members in attendance and several spouses. Four very fine Chevelles in the parking lot caused a crowd of enthusiasts to gather around and chat, and we almost had to call upon the Sgt At Arms to exercise crowd control to yank the people away from the Chevelles so we could start the meeting ;) (j/k) We had a great first meeting and look forward to our first combined outing in two weeks supporting a local Toy For Tots run. We voted to attend Chevellabration 03 next year, and hope to meet up with many of you other club members there, if not at another local event. Thanks to Chuck Hansen and Presidents from several other clubs on guidance and information to get us started. Wish us luck! Cecil "Steve" Martin President, Tri-State Chevelles

Very nice shape, blue with a white top, older frame off, needs the interior completed, as some of the smaller items are missing, or at least in one of the many boxes and buckets of parts that came with it. Power steering, non-power brakes (soon to be converted to power discs in front). Current motor is a 350 CID, but includes the original 327, which is in need of a rebuild. I am going down next weekend to bring it home. If anyone knows of a list for Impalas as great as this one, please clue me in as to where I can find it. Well, alright. Take it easy.

Re: [Chevelle-List] new Chevy Products/the future
Yeah I think there is a lot of hostility about newer cars. Lots of reasons, whether looks, mechanicals, quality... whatever... But I'm glad some of the technology has come along. FI is great now that the bugs are sorted out. But I think a number of things and problems are gonna plauge the car industry soon... 1. Extreme differences in technology. We are about to se a drastic change in technology. It is gonna make the switch to FI look like nothing. The new larger electric systems with alternators on the flywheel, cars that no longer idle but shut off while the brake is held, cylinders that stop firing on the freeway... and the list goes on and on. 2. Car companys' greed. Ever manufacturer is making their own special fluids, motor oil, addatives, etc. so they can increase profits. Also many new cars can only have some codes or ecm's read by the dealer. There also been a lot of press about the release of information to repair cars. Info for manuals has skyrocketed from manufactures so only a large company like Mitchell/Snap-On, AllData, OTC, etc can afford to purchase them. Then in return they jack the price up for smaller and independant shops. 3. Technician pay. People complain big time about labor rates. My shop is at 89.00 an hour which is very cheap around here. Most places are at about 100 and the dealers are at 110 to 120. I'm leaving the field because I simply can't survive well enough on my pay and can do a much less physical task and make more. After I shell out big money for tools (which the good quality tools cost a pretty penny and now every dang car needs a special socket or a special tool). Also sdd the fact the job is becoming much harder. Overall I think rates are gonna eploded. Especially considing the parts and labor on the Alternator for the 42 volt electrical systems is gonna be between $2500 and $3500.

I've heard a little about those changesI remember the 8/6/4 Caddy engine that failed miserably trying to shut down cylinders. I'm sure they could do it now, but I wouldn't wanna be the first to try one. As for shutting the car off at stop lights, that's a mistake to try. I would think the restart would create undue wear and tear and create safety issues. 3. Technician pay. People complain big time about labor rates.

I'd like to learn as much as I can about Chevelles, and classic cars in general. One of my first questions is: what is the difference between a-bodies, f-bodies and so on? I've tried doing a little research and I can't quite get a consistent answer. I've heard that each manufacturer has its own platform for different cars, for example: both ford and gm consider the mustang, camaro, and firebird f-body cars. They have different bodies but share the same chassis, drivetrain, suspension, etc. I was wondering if this was true. Thanks!

Jason Welcome to the list. We look forward to seeing your 65 progress from a little rough to showstopper :D Good choice of car and a good idea to tackle safety issues first. From memory, the S-10 spindles will work, but something tells me that they are not the best (easiest) choice for an upgrade. I can't remember what the limiting factor is, maybe someone else can help. A frequent swap that works well is the Tall Spindle swap. Found on 70-81 Camaros, 73-77 chevelles and B-Bodies from 77-91. This one gives you disks, and also improves handling.

RE: [Chevelle-List] new to me 65 Chevelle
Three reasons I went with the Baer 13" Track setup. 1. A friend of mine is a dealer and I did get a little price break. In essence I got the polished calipers ($145 option) and the cross drilled, slotted, zinc washed rotors ($120 option) for something like $30/$40 when all was totaled up. 2. I was going with 17" wheels anyway and the 13" Baer's just look damn sexy behind the ARE 200S wheels. 3. I didn't want to have to mess with replacing the spindles - meaning busting the ball joints loose, worrying about keeping the spring compressed (or removing it all together) since the suspension was fairly new anyway. The kit came complete, although the adjustable prop valve was $50 extra, with all brackets, bolts, hoses, master cylinder, etc. Labor time and installation was much easier. Their SS (Serious Street) kit w/12" rotors is only $20 cheaper so why not go with the 13" kit?

Re: Re:[Chevelle-List] new to me 65 Chevelle
For anyone thinking of going with the tall spindle disc conversion, look for a mid 80's station wagon to get your spindles, most of them came with 12 rotors instead of 11. The only catch is the bolt pattern is 5x5 so the rotors will need to be redrilled with the correct 5x4.75 pattern. cYa- Herb Lumpp 1966 El Camino, LS6, 6 spd, Currie 9 ACES 3509 http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/ - Original Message - From: rick schaefer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2002 4:52 PM Subject: Re:[Chevelle-List] new to me 65 Chevelle Jason Welcome to the list.

Re: [Chevelle-List] new person
GM A bodies refer to all full frame mid size GM cars from 64-77, ie Chevelle, LeMans, GTO, Skylark, Monte Carlo, Cutlass, 442. All these share the same frame and chassis components for the most part F bodies are Novas, Camaros Firebirds and they are a unibody design, not a full frame. They use leaf spring suspension as opposed to a coil spring setup like the A bodies have. G bodies refer to the 78-88 Mid Size GM cars, basically same models as the A bodies (Cutlass, Malibu, Monte Carlo, Grand Prix, Regal, GN, 442, El Camino) The GM A bodies for the most part interchange with each other except for model specific parts like interior, sheetemetal, drivetrain, trim pieces, etc. Some parts off F boides and the full size cars will even interchange on the A bodies This list is full of very knowledgable people that are ready and willing to help.

RE: [Chevelle-List] new person
hey andrea.. The a-body vs. f-body vs. g-body etc, are just the different manufacturer's designation for a certain platform (chassis). They're only relavent when talking about the same manufactuer. You can't compare a GM A-body to a Chrysler A-body. GM A-bodies include: Olds Cutlass, Buick Skylark/Special, Pontiac Tempest/GTO, Chevy Chevelle GM F-bodies include: Chevy Camaro, Pontiac Firebird GM X-bodies include: Chevy Nova, Olds Omega, Pontiac Ventura, Buick Apollo. And sometimes, the same model (ie: Monte Carlo) might be an A-body from 70-77 and then a G-body from '78-up. As an example, I believe a Chrysler A-body is a Duster. There's no relation between a Chrysler A-body and a GM A-body. They just happen to use the same letter designation. Sometimes a chassis designation has a name instead of a letter. The '79-up Mustangs are commonly referred to as Fox-body (or fox-chassis) cars. Yes, it can be a little confusing, but it's not too complicated. Hope this clears things up a little. -Dave -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2002 10:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-List] new person Hi, I don't own a Chevelle, or any other classic car.

RE: Re:[Chevelle-List] new 69 el camino pics
Thanks for the kind words everybody. It's definitely a good feeling to see one come out of a junkyard and come back to a nice roadworthy condition. The best way to keep the hobby alive is to keep the cars alive IMO. This won't be a points-winning car because I am not doing the frame and it has the wrong engine transmission in it, an SS hood, and is on its way to being the wrong colors according to the body tag. I intend to have a lot of fun with it though, and it will be great for hauling parts. This is the first time (after many old cars) that I am getting to do the whole thing over before I ever drive it. You can imagine it will be a good feeling the first time I turn the key. John Nasta - To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Re:[Chevelle-List] new 69 el camino pics
Hi Chad, This is not the type of restoration you would want to do yourself unless you have some experience. This job required a fair amount of welding. The job you described will also require some welding. Also, you never really know how much work there is to do until after the paint has been stripped off, and that is also the point of no return because if you don't move on, it will rust to death. Some of the tools you would need are a welding torch, an arc welder, and maybe a spot welder, special hammers and sanding equipment, impact tools, a very good compressor, paint spraying equipment, various sheet metal cutting equipment, the list goes on and on. Obviously it can be done though. You are young and you have plenty of time to start collecting the stuff. Keep in mind that you will be dealing with lots of chemicals that are really noxious. You will need a good chemical vapor mask, which is probably about $300, and a good ventilation system. You might want to go to a junkyard and buy a random fender or door that is toast for a cheap price and practice repairing the damage and painting it. There are also vocational classes that you can take (even for the older guys). My brother recently took a night class through the local B.O.C.E.S. program and learn how to fabricate panels (tin-bumping). That is a real art that will enable you to restore just about anything. My advice is that if you really want to do it, start learning and start collecting the tools, and practice on pieces that are not important to you first.

Re: [Chevelle-List] New web page
It's funny you mention that. When we first got here (VA)
I was driving down a 35mph four lane road near my house. Naturally I was
going about 45-50 because if you went any slower the other cars would run you
over.
Anyway, as I approach the stop light to make my right turn, a
police car is making a left onto the street I'm on. About two minutes
later I notice the red and blue lights in my mirror! I pull over and roll
down my window to be greeted by "Trooper Dan." After he gives me a
speeding ticket (how he clocked me I have no clue) he asks what kind of exhaust
I have on my Blazer. I said dual. ;) He said, "No, what
brand?" I said Spin Tech. Then he said, "You have to change your
exhaust, performance exhaust systems aren't allowed in this state." Right
about that time, I 5.0 Rustang rumbles past with Flowmasters on it!
I didn't want to push the issue so I didn't ask, but I was
thinking if"performance" exhaust systems aren't legal, why isn'the
giving me a ticket for that too?
It's no big deal even if I do get tickets for noisy exhaust,
it's not like I drive it everyday and I'm only going to be here for about 4
years. Personally, I don't think the Elky is that loud. :)

You might want to rethink that. I've lived in
Lawton, OK (Fort Sill) for 20+ years and many cars here are registered from
home states. That doesn't mean they still don't have to comply with
Oklahoma laws. That includes too loud an exhaust, stereo, and even how
deep a tint you can legally have on your windows. I'm sure that if Virginia
has laws on noise levels, exit points, etc., you'll have problems explaining
why your car on their streets doesn't comply with their laws. Licenses,
tags, etc. may be from your home state, but I'd watch the laws of the
state.

What's the Commonwealth? Is that like the
DMV?
If it is, I'm active duty Coast Guard and the Elky is
registered/licensed/insured in my home state of Arizona -so the
Commonwealth has no say in my exhaust system.
I guess that's one of the benefits of being military.

Re: [Chevelle-List] New truck
I couldn't get the photos to load but did see that it's a '73 C20 - good choice (I have a '78 C10 so I might be a tad biased). The TH400 uses an electric kickdown switch mounted under the gas pedal. The secondary air valve is vacuum- controlled and will open only enough to admit the amount of air needed by the engine. As long as the carb port supplies manifold vacuum you're OK. As for the pinging, have you checked the timing and for vacuum leaks? If you're interested there's a '73-87 Chevy/GMC truck list/group at groups.yahoo.com. It's fairly low-traffic but there are knowledgeable people there. Brad O. We finally got to where we could replace the '83 ElkyI decided to give Jana the 78 SS so it would get a lot less use and abuse from carrying my tools and get a truck. I wound up with a 3/4 ton bruiser with the stiffest suspension I've ever experienced first hand. This truck is as tight as a drum everywhere and the engine only has 6k on it in the last seven years. Unfortunately that means the carb is shot and the tranny doesn't downshift, but these are easily fixed later...in the meantime it's driveable and is actually pretty smooth. Here's some pics... http://users3.ev1.net/~woodcat/NewTruck1.html http://users3.ev1.net/~woodcat/NewTruck2.html Anyone know if the TH-400 used a kickdown cable like the TH-350? There doesn't seem to be one, nor a place to mount one (on the tube that carries the vacuum to the booster). It won't down shift under any amount of pedal pressure. The vacuum line isn't connected to manifold vacuum, but to a carb line and it's T'd to another line going to the vacuum ball by the heater coredoes this matter? Also the idle sucks and wasn't fixed with new plugs. I figure the carb is a mess. It pings at full throttle and seems like the secondaries aren't opening up. What operates the back flapper on the carb (over the secondaries)...it's wide open on my Edelbrock 1406, but on the Quad, there doesn't seem to be anything controlling when the flap opens. There's a place for a rod to open the door, but I don't get where it attaches to. The bottom doors open to the manifold fine, but the truck bogs and pings loudly if you give it too much gas.
