Any suggestions on what Holley to get for a carburetor? They seem to have a lot of options nowadays.
Motor is apparently shaping up to be what it was anecdotally described to me years ago: a motor from a race car ... or a built 350 1970 LT1 clone, with 1971 over the counter block, high...
Thanks Mikey, I'm going to do more research on this. I really appreciate your advice. There's a lot of different opinions on this topic and those of you that drive these car on the regular and is familiar with this machine are invaluable to those of us trying to get it together.
What in your...
I've driven a similar but heavier weight vehicle with drums (old 70's chevelle and a nova) and also wrecked a chevy truck the day after driving through water due to drums seized up. Last car was a mid 80's Jag XJS with previous owner having done the Chevy Conversion, and it was disc all around...
That's good advice: which stock components should I get then ? Would it be best to just retrofit the 65' brake parts onto the 64 ? Or is there a better aftermarket option?
There seem to be quite a few different kits to choose from, I'm going through old posts to try and gauge which one would be the best, I definitely want power brakes as well and want to do this right the first time. Also going fast is great but stopping is also very important.
Today I went through it with a friend, drained the existing mixture of oil and PB blaster that had been sitting in it for decades and refilled with Rotella T. But it wouldn't turn by hand. As it looked otherwise clean, and had been sitting with oil in it we removed the old battery, hooked up the...
Any nominations for the best online shop to order vette specific parts from ? I know a lot of these parts I can just get as stock GM parts from NAPA or ... but Vette specific parts I'd like a referral on which online retailer is the best.
This is awesome, thank you. I've been told in the past by shadetree hotrodders about the Diesel oil first in the old blocks and then hand cranking before but am admittedly ignorant as to why it is recommended.
Given that the tank was missing, I'm planning on all parts for the fuel delivery to be replaced, because I know it can be a dangerous nightmare upon failure. I have a new Spectrum Tank in the box and apparently got a sending unit along with it at some point. I'm making the list! All advice...
Hi all. I've got a 64' Convertible w/ hard top in the garage for the past decade, that was in a dry barn and garage for some time. I posted some pics over at a thread a few years ago if it looks familiar, but I went on the road for a while and shuttered the project due to old British motorcycles...
I am seriously considering doing this, and at present I have a 3 car garage (renting). I found some info online from some guys that built a wood dolly frame for the body and used some simple tools (home made) to get the body off the frame. Since I have never done something of that nature (and...
Okay after a few months recess from garage projects to travel and spend money on an old Triumph Bonneville motorcycle (that I absolutely had to have) I am back, and my 1st priority of spare attention (and money) is the vette.
Spent the last month getting educated on parts... numbers, how to...
