GO Pull-It 7282 Commonwealth Ave. Jacksonville, Florida
-
Hello, If anyone is interested, I went to a local u-pull it, and saw as of yesterday, a 1950 Buick, pretty much stripped, but still parts left. gopullit.com

Not to change the subject, the bumper should fit 1978-87 Chevrolet El Camino, but should also fit GM mid-sized station wagons from those years.
-
small block Chevrolet V8
-
On second thought, it could also be an bumper accessory for the '55 Chevrolet.

Parts of a continental kit for 1955 Chevrolet?

I thought that's what I said, in so many words, I guess some people just like to argue, oh never mind.No, it's about taking a Burnz-A-Matic, cracking the valve open about a half of a turn and holding the nozzle close to any area which could possibly be allowing air to enter. Here I'm talking about carb bases, intake manifold gasket area, etc. If there is a leak then propane will enter the manifold and the idle will go up. Simple and not dangerous. If you locate a spot where the introduction of propane increases the idle, you've located your vacuum leak. I was hesitant to bring up the legal angle because I know that it can be quite pointless once you've made the purchase. If you'll recall, I asked specifically if you feel that the condition of the car (here I'm talking about the engine, specifically) had been misrepresented. Did the dealer make any claims as to the condition of the engine?

talk about using a Burnz-A-Matic to locate vacuum leaks.
This sounds interesting ?
It's called the propane enrichment test, which involves removing the burner off the valve that goes on the tank and installing a hose (a tight leak-proof connection) with the engine running AND CHECKING FOR NO SPARKS, crack open the valve and run the hose around carb base or anywhere a leak could be when the idle increases that's the area of the leak. It could be dangerous though.

Well, if there is a 1941 Plymouth in the photo, the photo date has to be 1941 or newer.
Yes, I agree. The second car from the near left is the 1939 Chevrolet, behind the one you can only see the rear of.
-
I see a '39 Chevrolet.
-
The 327/300 HP engine should have a Carter AFB, instead of the Rochester 4GC. Of course, the intake is different but it also has larger runners? The intake valves are bigger, 1.94?

I bought a '68 Chevrolet C-10 (1/2 ton) LWB w/ standard transmission in the late '70's, the first problem I encountered was the gear shift becoming jammed and not being able to get the transmission in gear. I remember took the truck to the local Chevrolet dealership, and they rebuilt the column. The shift levers @ the transmission have plastic bushings that can wear out. These trucks have a coil spring instead of a rear leaf spring suspension, may have to replace the springs and/or add air shocks.

Nice Vette, but not a '70, mid '70's '74-'76, I doubt one from these years would have 350 hp with a small block 350 w/automatic from the factory. If this car is original.
-
late '40's/early '50's Dodge? '48-'53?

Motor
in What is it?
The 265 blocks did not have oil filters. Dealerships would install a remote filter borrowed from the 235 6 and mounted it on the intake.
-
The block been bored .60 over, the maximum. .30 over = 355 cu. in. .40 over = 357. I would ask why such an overbore? Were the cylinder(s) that bad to necessitate it? I would not bore a 350 more than .40 over. IMO.
-
Ante up another $1500 and you get a little more HP.
Not many of these unmolested and owned by a 67 year old.

The car pictured is from the '90's, a 1994-96 Impala SS, that came with the Chevrolet 350 cu.in. LT1, only with cast iron heads instead of aluminum, and I think a different cam profile. 300?hp/330?torque 10 bolt posi. etc.
-
An intake valve stuck open when the plug fires, causing it to backfire though the carb?
-
Are you sure it has a V6??? The Chevrolet V6 didn't go into production until 1978, 200 cu.in. 95 HP. Should be 250 straight 6. No a/c.Its got the stock V6.
-
Yep, A '68, I don't see the "SS427" emblem on the center of the grille, just the Impala emblem. Does it say"Impala Super Sport"?
-
250 bore and stroke 3.875x3.53, 292 bore and stroke 3.875x4.125.JohnyThe difference between the 250 and 292 is the bore and stroke
-
It sounds like you have a 250, I don't think the 292 came with the integrated head. I believe the 250 and the 292 are same, but 292 has more stroke hence the higher deck, The 292's side covers are about 6" tall, the 250's 4. If you buy that head check it for cracks in combustion chambers. Clifford intake might be the best for a 4bbl, but don't go above 550 cfm
-
1) Not a '69, (the white one) but looks like a mock up for the '67 model or what the agency thought a '69 might look like? 3) Red and yellow/gold Camaros and the gold Chevelle are '68 models 4)The green Camaro and red Chevelle are '68 from what I can see. A strictly Chevrolet/Chevrolet SS forum, may have some information on these. Take a look at Chevrolet forum at this site.

Is it the original engine? Are you sure it's not a 230? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the 250 started production in '66-'67. The integrated head didn't start until the '70's (1974)?
