[Chevelle-List] Timing tab question

I'm going through the timing on my '71 350 Malibu and have a question on the timing tab.   First, my timing tab is located 1.25" from the balancer, which introduces a lot of parallax when you try to adjust the timing. Second, I measured the distance from the 0 deg mark to the 8 deg mark on

The Mallory unilite is a small diameter cap, same size as the original dist I think. The MSD is a better unit, but I'm not sure how it's diameter compares.  The MSD I think is just slightly larger in diameter. Dan McIntosh wrote: Hi people,I'm looking for a new or lightly used distributor for m

Re: [Chevelle-List] rust inhibitor

The only true way to remove rust is to cut it out and weld new metal in. I have tried most of the products out there such as POR and most times they just can't live up to the hype. The real problem is that rust itself contains oxygen so even cutting the air off from the outside won't completely sto

Re: [Chevelle-List] Engine compartment wiring

I would think that the wires from the remote starter are too small to handle the current required to start the motor.. If I understand their operation correctly, the battery cable still needs to be connected to the starter solenoid, and the push button set-up connects on one end to the battery, an

There should also be a black wire.  Ok, look, the black wire goes to a ground on a metal surface, I used the firewall.  The white wire goes to the ilumination light on the dash, which brightens the tach at night.  I think the green wire goes to the negative terminal on the coil, and the red

Graham, I would recommend that you get your wiring harness from M&H (wiringharness.com) because they will run down a list with you of options that the car has (manual or electric choke, A/C, internal regulator, etc.) and make sure that you get the right thing. You may also want to invest in a por
