Interesting. I guess the particle size of the ash was small enough to pass though the air filter media?

I did not know that. Were earlier tanks more vertical? Did we ever figure out the original application for the "AZ" tanks? I believe I have one of these in our Chevelle and I never knew exactly...

I'd love to know. The contour is different than the typical "L-88" base, and it looks like it would allow me to eliminate the spacer I need to run with my M4MC Q-jet. Never saw one like that, but...

Walker Royal Scot glass-pack style mufflers were pretty popular in the late-70s / early-80s. Had a cherry-bomb style case, but a much better sound. I think they had baffles inside instead of being...

I recall the made-for-street version of those wheels being very, very popular in the 1980s. Anyone remember the chrome aluminum center / steel rim composite Cragar SST wheels?

I'd also like to know if there is a good reference for decoding Harrison stamps. I've got an A-body rad with the passenger side tank stamped "AK" and I can't figure out the original application.

The one on ebay does not look like a large 14x3 Z/28 air cleaner. I don't think it's a repop. Looks more like a early-70s vette air cleaner that uses the smaller 10-11" filter element.

The wheel I have looks very similar, but the spokes appear to be machined to clear C2 calipers (or 67-68 two-piston calipers). It's a 15x6 w/ 3" backspace. Can anyone tell me who made this wheel? ...

Olds F41 suspension

My friend has a '71 Cutlass Supreme, and the build sheet lists "F41 HD suspension". Now, in Chevy-speak, F41 means rear sway bar and boxed arms for A-bodies of that era. We are very sure that this...
