Hey L82 Shark, You are going to want to put down sound barrier/insulation. I used a product I bought at Lowes/Home Depot. It is basically bubblewrap between foil. You can buy a roll for about $30. Do a search on the center console replacement. You will be able to see how it goes together when...

Details, I need details. bud

Hey guys, found it. D & L Transmissions. Lots of Muncie parts. Many different years. Thanks again. Bud

Hey John Z, that's it. I probably confused you guys by indicating it was part of the bellhousing. It is part of the transmission in the bellhousing. Any idea on where I can purchase a front bearing retainer? You guys are the best! Thanks for being here for guys like me. peace Bud

Hey guys, one of the colateral damages from my catastrophic engine failure is the shaft in the bellhousing that the throwout bearing rides on. It is part of the bellhousings face plate that bolts to the front of the transmission. What is this called? Where can a replacement be purchased? Thanks...

Hey guys, well I blew up the lower end of the #matching 383 that was in my '74 coupe. I am now building a new stroker using a 4 bolt main out of a 70s something pickup. Can anyone provide any feedback on the 4340 cranks that are offered from Powerhouse? They are about $250/$350 less than the...

Hey 454, I can't see where one of the three bolts holding the mount to the block would cause any problems. Are you planning to race this car? If not make sure the others bolts are ok and test drive it. Go somewhere you can sidestep the clutch and see how she reacts. A broken mount will allow the...

Hey Juggler, dropping the steering column is no problem and was needed to be done when I did my '74 interior. Watch your head. peace Bud

Hey guys, I am getting ready to pull the body off of my '74 coupe. How much of the front bumper brackets and supports, if any has to come off? Thanks for any info. Peace Bud :cool

Did this help Hey Mike, Did this work? I forgot to check to see if you needed more clarity. Bud

Hey Mike, my '74 is a manual so I have a switch that is operated by the clutch. Also on the firewall passenger side there is a relay that needs to be connected. I'm not at home and can't remember how this is routed. I'm sure another member could point this out. If not let me know and I'll help...

Hey fine, welcome to the CAC. I also kept looking in the garage after the purchase of my '74 coupe. I would return to the house and announce that there was a corvette in the garage. I knew everything was allright the day my wife came home from shopping and exclaimed THERE'S A CORVETTE IN THE...

Hey guys, how can I determine which Muncie I have in my '74 L82 coupe? Bud

Hey Whiplash, thanks for the info. I have lifted alot of odd shaped objects in my occupation and understand the effects of a single point hookup. I didn't like the looks of the sling the first time I saw it. I realy like the extra height idea. Besides being able to store the body over the chasis...

Hey Whiplash, in an earlier post you talked of alterations you had to do to your body dolly. Care to share with me. I'm pulling my body in the next couple of weeks. Thanks Bud

Hey guys, over the winter I obtained a Q-jet that was originally on a '79 L-82. I bought it because for the last 5 years I have been reading on this site how good a properly tuned Quad is. This carb had been "restored" to original specs by a local carb shop here in Dayton. After installing a...

Hey Grump, great posting. That is a good checklist for anyone doing a cam swap/engine rebuild. Hey Rocket, pull the valve covers, disconnect the distributor have someone turn the engine over and watch the rockers to see if the valves are opening and closing. Make sure you didn't shortcut the...
