Kevin and I drove his Elky and my Chevelle to Shakopee Friday night, and the ball bearings in the washing machine noise in the trans/engine area was more than just once in awhile on the way back home. Did it at almost every light/stop. Every time it happens I can make it stop by putting the trans in neu...

My 72 El Camino compressor bearing failed, I lacked the cash for the repair so I removed the compressor and hoses and stuck them in a box. That was 30 years ago. This summer I decided it was time to fix it. I am not an A/C guy; I purchased a new condenser and dryer from Ground up, nice stuff fit nicely, new co...

I just bought an old 396 that has been sitting for about 30 yrs. Something to occupy my time with. Well I just spent the better part of 3 days trying to tear it apart. Had to cut the head bolts off inside the valve cover on one head to get it off (really rusted). Had to cut the balancer off. Getting th...

Here are some pictures of a car we just finished for a good friend of mine. Now I need to get mine done. We installed the rear bumper pad a day after these were taken. It is a real SS. It was kind of fun researching the info on this to try and get it as correct as possible. Lots of good info came from the Team Cheve...

I was so ready to pitch the whole thing and do the LS conversion on the 64 instead of the Elky. 1st - Alternator pulley that failed.The pulley portion separated from the part that mounts to the shaft of the alternator result...

its almost done. Had to replace the battery, and the exhaust is getting done tomorrow night. But the rest of it is buttoned up. Clutch adjusted, gears all good, 4.10's in.

So while the trans is out the next couple of weeks... I 'might as well' install the new Pypes exhaust I bought last summer which means I 'might as well' either paint or undercoat the underside of the floor pans since I will have everything out of the way and the car up high enough to get to the bottom side. Th...

I have a original 1970 Muncie 4 speed shifter that was rebuilt recently. The tranny is a M21 1970. I am having a problem getting it to shift into reverse. It seems that the shifter handle won't go far enough to the left to get it to go forward and into reverse. Does anyone know a Muncie expert in the metro are...
