325W: Nope, there's nothing cast on it to be drilled. Not sure how many amps those motors pull, it'd be the only electrical extra in the vehicle....
OK, so I'm putting disc brakes on my '62 Chevy pickup. Engine is a stock 283 w/ a stock cast iron 4bbl intake and I'm planing on running a Vintage...
Well it's a start anyway! Hopefully at the swap set tomorrow I'll find something in a ball of old wires. Thanks for the pic. Posted using the...
I'm hoping someone can give an idea. It concerns my vehicle which is a little off topic on this forum but no place else is giving any response. So...
Awesome project, I also have a '62! Subscribing to this thread. Keep the posts coming!
Does anybody know if the 14 spline clutch discs from speedway are any different the stock (s10 & astro van) you can buy at the parts store? Other...
If ran with 4 exhaust pipes, what size would you run with a mostly stock internal 283?
I was just talking to somebody today about that picture of a chopped 4-door '49 Plymouth!! Thanks for posting, they didn't believe me!
Right on, that's all I needed to know. Thanks for the help!
Are all Gen I blocks the same external dimensions? I'm putting an early 60's 283 in my car and mocking it up with an empty 350 block from the mid...
Well I put an '87 block from a P20 van in my El Camino and it had the hole for pivot ball. Had to chase the threads but it was there.
I love the old guy at the start of the video asking when it will be done!! But seriously, phenomenal work on the car. Wish I had a free car to...
Right on guys thanks. Well I bit the bullet and ordered a remaned manual unit. Either yards around me didn't have it or ones farther away said...
So I also got a steering column from a '67 Chevy truck to replace mine. What is the size and splines on those? The business end, not the steering...
Thanks for the replies fellas. Gene, Is there a difference in the input on Power and Manual racks? I've read the input is 5/8"x36 spline or 17mm...

Why didn't you just say that in the first place??
This little guy with the red arrow is what I've been talking about modifying. Not trying to beat a horse here :rolleyes: [IMG]
FiddyFour, I think we are on different pages here. I understand that the rack will only turn so far and it can't be changed. You mentioned the...
The cavalier rack doesn't have as long of a throw as the stock steering box which shortens the turning radius. So if you can shorten the bracket...
Sorry I haven't got back sooner, been at work. joy. But in response to a few replies we've adjusted all we can with the box. Got about 3 inches...
My Buddy and I are working on his '54 Crestline and has about 8 inches or more play in the steering wheel. The steering linkages are pretty tight...
Thanks George, I've already switched over to disc in the front, when I'm working on the motor swap I'm going to re-do the front shocks as well.
little update, Picked up a Pass side manifold today from a 78-84 Monte or Malibu that looks like a '56 chev drivers manifold. [IMG] Looks...
