I have been giving a set of original, big block valve covers. Chrome but I will scuff them and paint them. They look correct for a 1969 but I am looking for opinions.

Question, does anyone have or had an original survivor 1968 385 hp Canadian built Chevrolet or pontiac who has pictures of or knows/remembers definitively which air cleaner was used? My car is a 1968 Biscayne and I have the recognized 4 speed air cleaner (no thermal heat stove) but since the 68's did...

Hi guys, I've been thinking about upgrading my rearend from a non-posi 2.56 to a posi 3.08. I came across this fella selling this slightly used Eaton Posi. Is this a good price ? He suggested they're about 900 new. Regards, Scott (LandShark ...)

Having a noisy issue on both wheels and will have to prevent damages. I have a 1967 Bonneville Superior ambulance, the differential is 10 bolts.

When I rebuilt my 427 a few years ago, I wanted an original looking fuel pump but wasn't eager to pay the price for NOS. The fittings on the 66 pump didn't carry over into 67, so in Canada it was a unique pump. I think the US cars with a 396 in 65 used the 66 style pump but of course we never had them here. I bought...

As the subject heading asks. Does anyone have info on how many 396 and 427 cars were built? I can find that 10 2+2 convertibles came with a 427 but what about other applications. The VVS I got for my 69 396 2+2 only indicated that 1943 2+2 coupes were made but no power train break down.

During covid, I installed a short water pump in my convertible with the intention of correcting that one day.

The original fan blade is now 3 1/2 Inches from...

Does anyone have a driveshaft from a 66 Pontiac or full size Chev, Powerglide car or 3 speed standard, lying on the floor that they can tell me the measurement from centre of U joint cup to centre of U joint cup?

I am cleaning stuff in my tumbler and when I was putting this one in the tumbler today I noticed it doesn't have a seal in it. I never realized not all of these were the same design.

my 67 impala instrument cluster was rebuilt many years ago. It seems that every year I have a noisy speedo cable. Pull it out and lube it but not perfect. The speedo needle has a minor fluctuation but settles down after a bit of lube. It seems to be a yearly ritual. The transmission is 3 speed th350. Any...

looked at a number of sites and see all kinds of different answers. 60 over I think all would say ok but what about 70, 80 or 100? what do you think about sleeving back to standard? This also has to do with saving an original 66-69 427 block
