the performer will flow a little more than a stock mani but not as good as an air gap. It will work fine.  I has one on a stock 350 that came out of a 71 chevelle. with a 650cc Edl carb. i put that motor in my el camino. drve it everywhere. in snow, rain

Mild Modifications / Re: '69 "Comfort Grip" steering wheel

« on: November 27, 2008, 11:20:32 AM »

   Not to hi jack some ones post or to get off topic but i just picked up a 67. it seems that the steering wheel is to big for me. i really have to push my legs down in to the seat to slide them under. I have the seat back as far as it will go. the car doesn't have  tilt.  Is there anything i can do before i have to put a tilt column in?  And if i have to do so will this one work? http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=IDT%2D1120680010&N=700+4294848923+4294908216+4294908198+4294925084+4294867929+115&autoview=sku

 Im not sure what kinda money you have or what your trying to do. But summit sells a really nice set of cast heads. they are made by dart with the summit name on them. 2.02 1.60 ss valves. for $650.00 i dont think you could get a set of heads built for that. Summit SUM-152123

what kinda gps are you useing? a friend of mine told me to go that route. But i would like the car to work just as it did back in 67. i know that the rear has been changed out and has a 3:55 gear in it.   does the rear gear really matter? could i put a stock size rim and tire back on the car and be fine? would the speedo be on some what.

  welp, here goes nothing. I have not owned my 67 camaro very long. They guy I bought it off of made lots of changes threw the years.  he was a drag racer, and raced it for a wile. then bought a vega and pretty much made the camaro a street car. the camaro now has a 388 small block chevy with an m21 4speed. the speedometer is not hooked up. the car has a 66 dodge dart rear end with a 3:55 rear gear in it.  she also got bigger tires and rims.  If i hook up my speedometer im guessing its going to be way off. where should i start to try to get a better idea of how fast im really going?    Im going to take out the m21 soon and install a t350 i would like to race the car everyone in a wlie so im going to keep the rear thats in it now. but yet i still wana take it out on dates and drive to work every once and a wile.   thanks for all the input.
