Chevy II firewall

Sorry, this is a noob question, but my google-fu is bringing up nadda.

I need the dimensions of the 4 bolts that bolt the front clip on. The car is a 64 Nova. I haven't got my subframe off yet and i have an oppurtunity to get some plates lasered out. I'd like to get my measurements right, instead of guessing.

 

TTT Anyone got a measurement?

 

You mean you can't get a tape measure in there to measure the bolt pattern width and height? It's a square bolt pattern, so if you can measure across the top bolts it will give you both measurements.
Check out these pics on the Gasser forum:

Thats what i'm sayin. Search doesn't do much good around here. Way too much random shit, which is why i'll delet this thread if i can get a measurement.

 

Can posters actually delete threads?
Interesting.

 

Other forums i can, hoping i can here. Just alot of threads with only 2 or 3 responses and no real info.

 

That would require you deleting others peoples posts.
Surely that can't be right.

 

Yup, he's correct. On many forums, the thread 'belongs' to the thread-starter. I've never tried to do it here, but... I once (innocently) started a thread on another forum that created a firestorm. I just went to the control panel and deleted the entire thread!

 

Has this thread turned into a thread about theads?

 

Hopefully a thread about threads with bolt patterns in it.

 

holes are 3 1/2 inches apart. both up and down and across .

 

No they are not. Got some stuff tore off. They look like 3 1/2 vertical separation and 3 3/4 apart. Over the next few days i'll get everything tore off and get a for sure measurement.

 

thats what i measured .....and your welcome.

 

Did you see the site on nova dimentions? Goggle for nova dimentions ...got a ton of stuff in there. Maybe it will help.......my favorite car got one sitting outside but it's all tarped over....NovaResource-Nova Dimensions

 

Don't forget the three bolt at the top on each side.

 

I'll check it out thanks.

What year? Mines a 64 and they are definitly not square.

Yes, can't forget these.

 

Ours is a 62. Front end is off and the holes are exposed. But I guess you have the measurements by now?

 

No. Had Xmas stuff goin on still have frame rails on. If you could measure yours and atleast compare, that'd be great.

 

Steves Nova Site.......it is where all the Nova Gurus hang out....lots of great members....just like on here but specific to Novas.

 

63 vert . i even went out and double checked my measurements before my smart ass comment . and both are 3 1/2

 

But what about the buffalo?

 

Well there you have it folks. 3 1/2 in square my ass. 3 1/2 by 3 11/16. Even a digital number for those that can't read a tape.

 

What about your buffalo boy? Do you have something to measure?

 

X2

I'm Gordoacadian over there.

That's where I learnt ALL the answers

 

Yes I do, but you already have proven everybody else wrong,huh?

 

It's more about being able to give someone the proper info. You jumped on the bandwagon without giving any info.Bill got butthrt and deleted his post entirely.

 

i have no problems reading a tape .....mine was 3 1/2 square. dont be a dick to folks trying to help you out .

 

The dimensions vary on every Nova + or - .250 is about the norm.

Piecrust, Go to this site http://www.stevesnovasite.com/forums/ & keep your attitude in check, remember..... your the one asking for help.

 

That is the kind of info i expect from a site like this and that is retarded from a manufacturing aspect. As for the attitude,boo hoo i'll give it back to an internet know it all.

 

No need for info you answered your own question. Correct?
