Re: [Chevelle-list] NMW ladder bars

I have a set of the NMW latter bars that came off a parts car. The car had a piece of angle iron welded across the frame and attached to the front of the latter bar. It was a home made set up. The NMW bars were also sold by Lakewood and came with a large bracket that bolted to the frame and to

[Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

Hi Folks, Well, this day finally happened - the motor fired right and up and ran! Unbelievable; it was truly amazing to see it in action, after it being on the engine stand for 2+ years now. I really wanted to hear the gear-drive, but with open headers, it's a tad hard ;-) However after about 6

RE: [Chevelle-list] Need two measurement of off a 1968 Chevelle

Would someone with a 1968 Chevelle coupe be so kind to take a measurement for me ? What I need is to know if the front wheel is centered in the front wheelwell. Lets say, by measuring the wheelwell between where the front molding ends and where the rear molding begins (just to have two

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

Graham, That doesn’t sound normal to me, are you sure you torqued the heads before starting it (I know it sounds stupid but It can happen to everyone) What it also could be is that either the block or heads aren’t straight. I would take of the head and check it out. Ciao ! Med Vennlig

RE: [Chevelle-list] Need one more measurement of off a 1968 Chevelle

Hi again, I would also like you to measure the wheelbase, as I've understood it its supposed to be 112 But does this measurement vary with the suspension going up and down ?? Med Vennlig Hilsen/Kind Regards/Cordiali Saluti André Broe Jensen -Original Message- From: [EMAIL

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

Depending on the gasket, they may or may not require retorquing after a time but in either case, there shouldn't be any leaking. Could be the head bolts weren't torque properly originally or possibly sitting with only air temp warming and cooling, they may have loosened up. Dale McIntosh I've

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

Did you have silicone on the head bolts/studs that protrude into the water channels ? not that this would cause the water to run out but normally, but who knows ?? Med Vennlig Hilsen/Kind Regards/Cordiali Saluti André Broe Jensen -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

They are the cheap Felpro set. I believe I torqued them to specs, which now makes me believe that I didn't. At any rate, I am about to go through them again and re-check. Thanks! -Graham. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dale McIntosh

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

No, I actually didn't use silicon. Do I need to? Wouldn't that mess up the torque settings? I didn't read anywhere when I put the heads on that I needed to. Um. -Graham. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tigergutt Sent: Saturday, January

RE: [Chevelle-list] Wow - Engine runs but leaks from head gasket :^(

Hi Graham, Since you're going to pull the heads off anyway (right?), before reassembly I recommend getting a set of ARP head bolts (if you don't already have them) and a tube of their thread sealer (part #100-9904) for the head bolts that protrude into the water jacket and the intake manifold
