I just recieved a 4in cowl for a 66 ss and it was a Glasstech. It looks like there won't be too much adjusting but overall a good fit. They make it seem like they are custom making it for you. All in all, I would purchase from them again. The crate was well designed and it did take about 6 week

Isn't that overkill? Did you flush the cooling system and change the oil? Spray the cylinders down to keep the rings from rusting? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 4:22 PM To: chevelle-lis

The list does seem unusually quiet. Maybe no one is working on their cars. I received the plastic shipping crate ($220 from www.scribnerplastics.com) to store my original 283. Now the trick will be to mount the engine and wrestle it to the storage place. Dennis McGillis 1965 Chevelle Malibu
