Bought Aluminum heads to replace the Iron heads, How do I check the geometry (push rod length) to know if the old push rods will work?  Please anyone but Henry reply. :smile26:

Done, ordered the checker and viewed the video, I'll probably not need new push rods because these heads are direct replacement for my Iron heads.  :smile27:

Don't you know that nothing seems to be a direct replacement in a boat?
My only direct replacements seems to be fuel and oil.
  Good luck.

Jim is working on a car. :smile30:

 

[jdeaton]

Yep! Working on a 70 Chevelle, but a motor is a motor, is a motor.

I was just kidding Henry, but I was told we pick on Henry on days with a D in them!    :smile30:

 

[Patchman]

Are you trying to make that Ol Chevelle faster? think.gif :smile21:

 

[jdeaton]

No I'm just trying to make an eye appealing street cruiser.  We went to Cruising the Coast this year, and I am hooked!  Never in my life have I seen so many Hot Rods.

 

[Patchman]

Look into the Hotrod Power tour. We have participated in it three times, and I really want to do it again! :smile17:

When we went to Tennessee a couple years ago, we unexpectedly timed it when they were having the springtime Pigeon Forge Rod Run... I tell ya, we didn't even make it to the auditorium for the actual show, but I don't think I have ever seen more hotrods/customs in one place. The main drag thru town had to be at least 2 miles long & it was packed with hotrods both sides of the street from one end to the other. People cruising them up & down, etc... Awesome sight for sure.

make sure & keep us updated with your Chevelle build/progress!

I have a 8/71 polished blower that would look great sticking out of your hood.

 

[jdeaton]

What would I do with two?

 

[Chevy2184]

I could think of a few things... 😎
