I just got my '69 350/350 Silver/red coupe. Went to get gas & found myself looking at that big hole into the gas tank. Never even thought about it before, but the standard gas nozzle was way too small to make a seal to allow gas to be pumped. Tried to slide back the rubber on the nozzle &...

Thanks Mike. I'll check out the registry & see what NCRS can come up with.:w

It's on a trailer now, due for SoCal delivery next week. A frame-off silver/red L46 coupe, but there is absolutely no paperwork for any history. Block/trans/carb/alt/ heads/ frame/ rearend 4.11/vin/glass/ all match up (dates & proper parts) & it's presented as matching #/original car. I know I...

I'm looking at a '65 fuelie to buy & the Rochester tag on driver side of plenum shows Serial # 1011, Part # 7017380 R. The tag looks like it was made yesterday, it's that perfect. I believe the "R" means "recalibrated" & I know the part # is period correct. What's the deal with the "R?" The...

Thanks, I'll check it out.:beer

Yes, that light still comes on in the car I have now. Thanks for all the insights.

Thanks wingnut. Will take a look on my current '96. Appreciate your help! :beer

First, want to thank all of you for the information & advice. I'm a reasonably aggressive driver, so going past 20 in 1st isn't a problem. BUT, just in case, where is the connection to insert the skip eliminator? Thanks! :beer

Thanks wingnut! I will check it out. :beer

I already have a '96 LT4 coupe, but will be purchasing a vert (10,000mi) that has the factory original shift setting for "emissions"-what a joke. My coupe has the fix & works beautifully. What is the procedure to eliminate this 1st to 4th shift sequence, so it can shift to 2nd without any...

Cable connections are solid, but will check the other stuff. Running good now, go figure. :thanks:

Dash was absolutely dark, everywhere, as if there was no battery. Working fine now, though. But it's like waiting for the other shoe to fall. :thanks:

Jealous of that red. I even thought about changing mine for about 30 seconds til my better sense (& cost evaluation) kicked in. So what did you spec out with after the dyno? And what was the diff between the dyno & the Hypertech? I understand there is a wide disparity in the advertised hp &...

Thanks for the welcome, Clive. I am lovin it, for sure. Re the fans, I was told they can be programmed to come on at lower temp. :beer

Took the car out, turned it off, then tried to start & absolutely no starter sound, total electrical blackout. Open & shut door, nothing. Then turned steering wheel & "played" with ignition & bingo, chimes came on, dash lit up & like nothing was wrong..car started. I'm thinking something to...

Thanks LT4man. I love the car & enjoying this forum. BTW, is that the Torch Red interior you have? I tried to find that one, but at the right options, mileage & condition, just didn't work out. :w

Thanks, this sounds like a pretty nice group of folks & I look forward to learning more about my "baby." Geez, our cars look like twins!:happyanim:

Hiya Slim: I like your idea of changing the start temp. I'll look into that. Sorry you don't still have that LT4. I like it more every time I drive it. Funny, I used to think my ultimate Vette fantasy was a '67 427-435hp. Then I parked next to one at a car show last week, looked at both...

Hey Vette Flyer, Imagine the logistics being all the way on the Left Coast. But the seller was a really nice guy & we made it work. And it was worth it. Thanks for the welcome. :w Rob
