How do you remove a broken throttle plate blade screw from the throttle shaft?
(Preview)
Well, I tried to remove the screws that someone else installed. I wanted to put in the original type screws with the slotted head and the H back in. It looks like the guy used Red Locktight instead of blue or staking the screws. 1st one was OK. 2nd one broke. 3rd one OK, 4th one broke. I guess I...

NSCC license plates...

At the last meeting there was talk about making some club plates. I went to Finishing Touch the other day and talked to them as we talked to their graphics folks at the October meeting.

Looking for the clip or a photo of the clip that holds the starter wiring harness to the block of a 66 Big Block
(Preview)
This is not the clip on the starter that holds the harness to the starter. It is a clip that was installed at the engine assembly plant that mounts on a bolt that hold the bell housing to the back of the block. Thanks.

Time to buy tools.....

For those that need some extra tools and like Craftsman tools, I have found that Sears cuts their prices by 50% or more over the holidays. Watch for their adds.

I disassembled the fuel bowls not noting the difference; but have since read there is a difference. Is there a way to tell which is which? Two different part numbers in the catalog, so they must be different. Another question: my schematic shows a weight and check ball below the squirter needle valv...

Handed out to club cards today
(Preview)
I gave Jeff, with the '68 El Camino a card and he may check out the website. He said he doesn't do a lot with forums. I sold a 7 piece trunk floor kit and Ralph has a '64 Chevelle and was rather interested in checking out the club and forum for future reference and help with his car.

If I can get the frame and window out, I will be able to straighten the frame so things will fit. Problem is it looks like some sort of rivets attach the window and frame to t...
