RE: [Chevelle-List] air shocks

The valve is also behind the passenger seat in mine. How do I check the pressure? Just put a gauge to it like I would to a tire?  There are also two thin clear hoses coming from both shocks to some little valve,  I guess, of some sort with screwable caps at each end for each hose.

2003-03-02 Thread Gino Espinosa
I need some educating here. I have never dealt with air shocks or nor know much about them (except that they use air...duh) I also know that the ride isn't very nice. Anyways, I've noticed on my 64 Elky that sometimes the rear will look really high and other times, it doesn't look as bad, but still

Well, I'm glad this whole q-jet/edelbrock issue came up because I was originally thinking to swapping over to a edel 1405 and edel performer intake, which I was told was gonna improve my fuel economy, as well as help out in the power department, in comparison to my stock setup. So thinking fuel eff

I am also looking to get a new carb/intake to replace the stock rochester on my 327. It's gonna be a driver, so I'm thinking something economical as well.

Going with an aftermarket setup seems like my only choice now, because it doesn't seem that there is any original wiring  left on my car! Whoever did this to the car did a real ghetto fabulous job! And you assumed correctly...I don't mess with electrical wiring! I'll always attempt to fix anything

Took the Elky out for a drive yesterday, now that I got my driver's window, and noticed the car pulled to the left a little when I'd step on the brakes kinda hard. I checked the brake fluid on it, and it had to be the worse looking brake fluid I had ever seen! It looked just like mud! So what woul
