NCRS attitude is they have never seen a documented 67 sb with a bb hood;shrug

Actually, a 185/75r15 is the 6.70/15 replacement size. The wider tires require wider wheels.

If you have A-C, IMO you will regret installing them, since they restrict air flow from the engine compartment. You can make shields that allow air flow from sheet aluminum. The cost is about the same and they are a lot lighter.

Use the links near the bottom of my homepage to display the diagram for save/download. Since they are jpg documents, any photo editor can modify them if you are making custom changes. That also means you can print a big one or a 8.5x11 to keep in the glove box. homepage...

I stopped at the shop that painted my car and Mike was painting a 69 Camaro air dam, so I got a chance to compare it to the air dam on my 66. First I put the Camaro air dam in the mold made from my air dam, then I put the Camaro dam next to a dam made from the mold. The camaro dam has a deeperV...

If it works in the city and not on the highway you don't have enough rad or rad airflow to eject the extra heat of higher rpm running. IMO the factory fan is irrelevant at highway speeds.

I sold a set up a couple of years ago. I went to junkyarddog.com to find corvette junkyards - then spent a week on the phone to locate pieces. The trick is: when the yard worker on the phone says no - ask if they know anyone who might have parts. That worked for me.

Yeah - in the sheetmetal cars it's fiberglass - go figure. It makes the parts nearly impossible to reproduce at other than incredible cost, and it makes finding junk yard sheet metal in good condition nearly impossible. PS The aluminum tape over fiberglass wrap is my idea of being better than...

Anything else?

The steel line from the pump should not touch the lower rad hose. To insulate it, slit an 18inch long rubber hose with ID same as fuel line OD and slip it over the line. I even wrapped that in silver insulation tape (from a hardware store) on my car. IMO the best place for an inline filter...

This list works for 66-6 cars: all 66big blocks used an 11" clutch with a 14" diameter 168 tooth flywheel, EXCEPT L-88 (which used a 10.4" clutch with a 12-1/2" , 153 tooth flywheel). '444' (cast at top) clutch housing designed for use with a 14" flywheel. It was used for 1966 and very early...

nice job - good idea

I disagree. I liked the article and I am considering putting one on my 66.

quote=midyearroadster427;829577]ok ..I'm towing a small trailer with 4 brake lts on it and two side marker lights now. Do you think the stock flashers and fuses can handle the extra lights ?????? IMO no. and I wouldn't trust the harness either. If you are talking about a c2, I would power it...

You are all welcome. If I didn't have to fix so many little things that broke on the 3000 mile round trip ride, I'd put up 50 or 60 more pics.

I'll post even more of the tour pics later. Editing the pics for web use takes a lot of time. The pics are here: http://www.corvetteforum.net/classic...e/index7.shtml

The speedo may not need to be recalibrated if it is in error by the same percentage at all speeds - in that case a simple change of plastic speedometer cable driven gear may do it - if not a not so simple change of both the driven gear and the trans drive gear will do it. If the percent error...

The rumor in AR is that it will start in Little Rock next year.

Keep the AFFF extinguisher handy and hope you don't have a siezure, stroke, or heart attack if your car catches fire.

I'm "long haulin" again with DZVETTE riding shotgun. See you in Cleveland, Kalamazoo, Racine, Springfield, Effingham, Evansville, Memphis, and Little Rock.
