Here's my 2 cents...
I don't think GM will resurrect the Chevelle name because we are a small
group compared to the Camaro followers, meaning they'll a lot more Camaro named
cars than Chevelle (if GM had any brains they'd bring back both the Camaro and
Chevelle as true performance rwd cars)
Why Chrysler is just as guilty of doing this to old names as the rest of
them.
Dodge Charger ring any bells.

Say what you will about GM, but Dodge did the same
(actually worse) to the Charger name back in the '80's (anybody remember the
Daytona Chargers?).
And, for Ford -- what about the scrawny
Mustang II's of the mid to late '70's? What about the new
Thunderbird?

I was just thinking more on this. GM also destroyed the Monte Carlo and the Impala. If they end up doing the same to the Camaro, I think I will shake my head down towards GM and go buy a Dodge.

Thanks for getting back on this, Dave. I think it may have been one of your
earlier posts that helped steer me to try Hedmans. I didn't have any trouble
getting them in, it's just after I bolted them down all the way I noticed
they were drawn right into the cross member and control arm. If I loosen

It's been a long time since I changed a cam on my LS6 70, but I did not have to remove the grill. Once you have the radiator out of the way, there is plenty of roomI seem to remember even using a cam "install" grip; although I may have started the first bearing/lobe.

I'm catching this thread late, but I looked up my receipt and I have the
Hedman 68290's in my '70 small-block. I've had zero trouble with them, and
they've been on the car since '98. A couple of the header bolts have

John,
can you insert the cam through the grille? can you
remove the old cam through the grille and and keep it
level on the same plane that it came out? bottom line
is, if you don't have a straight shot through the
grille, your answer is no.!

Well I did it, I
flattened a lobe on my cam. What I would like to find out from the list is if it
is possible to change out the cam while engine still in car without having to
pull the grill out of my '70? I know that the radiator and A/C condenser coil
will have to come out,

Not arguing that shock mount failure could happen, and maybe have even
been the major contributing factor in your case. I did the same thing
in 69 when returning from a stint in Korea. Jacked up the rear of my 67

That is correct. Bumpers were available as painted and chrome for fleetside
as well as stepside. A good site for pictures and research is

Harwood doesn't see a profit in making a one-year only hood for a 67
Chevelle - I've asked them before. Glasstek doesn't have a website per se
and AFAIK, the 4" is the largest they build commercially - I have the 4" and am
real happy with the quality. From what I understand,
On my '69, I have a 6" Harwood with the finished underside. It's
really a high quality hood that looks great. Underside looks so nice,
I didn't bother painting it. You can see some pics of it at

I'd highly recommend the Harwood if you can get it.
