Re: [Chevelle-list] Help with seals on 9 rear

I just tap mine in with a hammer and have not had any problems at the axles. I don't know of any installer tools, although I'm sure there are some out there. Mike -- When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Jesus, could you get that for me?" http://www.christianet.com Check out

RE: [Chevelle-list] Help with seals on 9 rear

Title: Message Hi John, I found a set of seal installers at (take your pick - Autozone, Pep Boys, etc). They're nothing more than a set of different size discs that attach to a steel handle. Pick the correct size disc, attach it to the handle, then tap the seal in place. If you haven't

[Chevelle-list] 67 Chevelle Options

The '67 had many engine options. The SS396 being one of the more popular. I've seen SS427 emblems before on restoration sites. Was the SS427 a true Chevelle option in 1967? And if so, how many (approx) were made? I'm guessing it wasn't much of an option otherwise people building SS clones would

Re: [Chevelle-list] 67 Chevelle Options

I've never seen or heard of a documented SS-427 Chevelle in 1967. A lot of people have used the Impala emblems and tried to pass them off as such. Clint HooperHH Custom,owner1969 El Camino ProTourer2001 H-D FLHR custom baggerhttp://dalesplace.com/misc/friends/clint/clint_hooper.htm -

Re: [Chevelle-list] 67 Chevelle Options

Only the 396 was available FROM THE FACTORY in 66 and 67 on the SS. They came in three flavors: RPO L35 325HP RPO L34 360HP IN 66, 350HP IN 67 RPO L78 375HP My Chevelle SS Restoration Guide further states that some dealers did install the 427 for their customers, but unless you can

RE: [Chevelle-list] 67 Chevelle Options

The 427 was a popular swap in 66 and 67 but only by dealers or individuals thats why you see the badges. There may very well have been performance dealers that would do the swap before the car was sold but from the factory, none have ever been documented. Remember GM had a 400 cubic inch

Mr. Anderson: Pelle: I was thinking about you. Rather, about your starting problem. Did you get your problem fixed? I have some of the same type of problems. More specifically, my small block starter was never shimmed or anything. I just put it on there and the thing worked. It has started

RE: [Chevelle-list] Hard starting question, Mr. Anderson

I don't think you need shims for OEM style starters. I have owned and repaired lots of cars from this era and never had to shim a starter. AFAIK it is a more prevalent problem with, or might even be exclusive to those aftermarket mini-starters. John Nasta -Original Message- My point,

[Chevelle-list] Carriers

I wen to the local swap meet today looking for 12 bolt parts. As usual I struck out. I did findone 2 series carrier but I kind of had my heart set on a 3 series. I know there are spacers that will make a 2 series run 3 series ring and pinion. 1) Does any body have one of these spacers?
