Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
Sam, when your all done I would be glad to come down and knock the shine off that place for you [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] all you need is a project.

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
Ha! - I'm sure you would Mikey and I will be happy to oblige [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] . I do have some projects planned. Nothing big like the old days (yet)! Chevelle needs some tending to (thinking about pulling the motor and going thru it). I will be working in earnest soon to return her to her D2 glory as I have been collecting parts - may have to give Grady a call on some of the harder-to-find pieces [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Eric - Don't think I won't be tapping into your stellar consulting abilities!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
Think you could squeeze 450HP with a stock rebuild? A bit of work already done - have of a 3 angle valve job done back in the day to prep for the 'strip.

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
I can make however much you want me to make. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]
Are you going to run manifolds or headers? |

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
Headers. Would like to go with Hedman if possible as that is what was run on it back in its early years. As a back up, I think it would be neat to run Super Scavengers, but I understand they do not flow as well as others (but sure sound good!).

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
Good choice on the Hedmans. That's what I have on my Chevelle and not only do they fit well, but they made the best power over two other sets of headers I tested.
Auto or 4 speed, and what rear gear? (We can take this to PM if you'd rather not tangent off topic) |

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
How about we go to the thread on my Chevelle to "talk" about L78 builds. I expect others will find it useful and entertaining....
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbt...743#Post246743 By the way: M21 and 3.73 gears.

Re: Setting up Shop in Dayton (aka Cholla's Retreat)
Jason - $1.45 gal and they can only fill the 120 gal to 90% due to gas expansion. My $160- for my initial fill up is for 108 gallons. When I checked around my area, there was a wide-wide variation prices. Most had "low" introductory prices but then escalated quickly (i.e. over $3.00). My company uses market rate always - what a concept. Moral of the story....shop around! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
