I have been collecting 1966 L79 parts for quite a while but have not picked up an engine core yet.

It appears that if a 66 Beaumont Sport Deluxe was ordered with a 396, the only engine available was a 360 horse. Strange, as a 66 Chevelle SS396 could be had with a 325 (base), 360 or at some point, a 375 horse. Also, it seems the 66 Beaumont never got the fancy hood, even if it was ordered with the 396. On a sid...

I've seen a number of small block Beaumont's that have their alternator mounted on the front of the bracket. As per the attached picture you can see that mine is mounted on the back of the bracket. Is this correct? The reason I ask is that it does look like it pulls the belt towards the block slightly m...

Hi all, I'm hoping someone out there can give me an explanation. My '64 Acadian Beaumont has a "74 L6 250. I'm getting a rough low idle(fast idle is fine) and a real rich exhaust smell, so I blamed the carb and thought it was time to get a new one anyway. No change. Changed the points, plugs and wires a...

I put an AC Delco single plug alternator in last year and it was already making noises the last couple weeks.
