1966 Chevelle drag car from November news letter
(Preview)
I meant to post this a while ago and had a senior moment..... for a few weeks... Bryan mentioned this car in the November news letter and I had taken a pic of it at the Garlit's museum. It is crammed in along side many other historic cars, so is hard to really get a good look at. [URL=http://s1357...

Check your antifreeze?
(Preview)
Mitch's "ready for winter?" post made me think of this. Temps are going to start dropping today and are forecast to get down into the teens this weekend. So just a reminder to make sure your antifreeze in ALL your vehicles is good to go for the winter.

1/2 Ton or 1/4Ton...?

Not a Chevelle topic... but wondering if you guys have ever downsized from a 1/2 Ton truck to a 1/4 Ton, and if you regretted it or liked it? I'm thinking of trading in my '03 GMC Sierra extended cab truck for an '07 Nissan Frontier 4X4 to be able to fit it in the garage, and still be able to haul things (car par...

The carb on my car has been running rich/lean? Long story short, whenever I am out for a run, I come home and through my shirt in the laundry as it has a terrible exhaust smell. I know these cars don/t have catalytic converters and do smell some but this has been excessive. During the Cruise for the Troops r...

Any issues with running a 396 with the Vacuum Advance canister plugged?
(Preview)
I have always had a problem with the car kind of lurching when below 1800 rpm in all 4 gears. Today a friend came over and plugged the VC line so it is adding no advance. Base timing is set at 14* with the distributor re-curved to add 22* with all in at 2600 rpm. VC was adding about 20* all in at idle. Well the...

Any way to avoid hard start problem after Chevelle has been siting for a week or two?
(Preview)
After the car sits for a few days you have to crank if a lot before it starts. I think gas has evaporated in the carb and may have drained back in the fuel line. Is there a check valve on the outlet side of the fuel pump? If so, can it fail? How would you check the fuel bowl? What about determining if fuel has dr...

If you get a chance take a ride in a 2015 HellCat as I did Today
(Preview)
After helping me with my ignition, a fiend gave me a ride in his new HellCat today . He ordered it about 10 months ago and just got it this September. Push a button and you have 700HP or 500HP. My chevelle is kind of like a VW beetle compared to the Cat.
