I have ceramic coated Flowtech headers on my 67 350 and they fit just fine, close to the undercarriage so there are no issues with dragging.

I'll check the plenum for the seals. Other than that everything else appears to be working and sealed correctly. I will also pull the "y" pipe. But all this will now to wait until the fall! It is time to cruise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes to both questions. The seal on the kick panel was repllaced as well the the firewall pad.If feels like it is coming from between the back of the dash and the firewall. There is about a 4 or 5" gap between them. That is why I wonder if it is the "Y" tube.

Not sure if this is the correct forum to post this query. I completed changing the heater core and put in new carpet in my 67. On the passenger side there is a draft coming from under the dash that drives my wife nuts!!!!!!!!!!!! I checked to see if the kick panel vent was closing and sealing properly and it is. I checked to the best of my ability to see if the doors on the heater were working properly regarding the defroster and heat vents and they appear to be. I have no clue where this draft is coming from. Could the plastic "Y" tube used for the flow of air for the heat and defroster be damaged causing this problem? Or is it something that I am missing completly. 
Thanks CRG!

Thanks for the update. Sorry to hear that the weather like everywhere else in US this spring so far has been pretty miserable. A Z28 with a column 3spd??!! I have never seen one. Now that has got to be a rare bird if it is original. You had to figure there would be some fallout regarding car attendance because of the rain. After this week which is suppose to be rainy, they say we are in for some dry weather for a few weeks. I won't hold my breath but it would be nice to have it at least in the 60's for the show.Was afraid you would say the prices are still going up. We have created a real monster trying to preserve these cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just looking for 12 bolt for a 67 Camaro. haven't really put much effort into yet. I addressed more important issues to the car such as electrical, motor and tranny. If i happen to find one this year then fine if not no big deal. Yes we are going to the Spring Show in Jefferson. A couple years ago it was so cold we turned around went home and put on heavier clothing!!!!!!

Original parts indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It took almost 2 years to find a 67 air cleaner!!!!!!!!! We have a show coming up in 3 weeks in Madison, Wi. I'll let you know what kind of parts are available. They are getting harder and harder to find. The only item I have some interest in is a 12 bolt rear end. Now those are hard to find in this neck of the woods. Naturally I have to be interested another high dollar item!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The starting issue I believe has been resolved since I had the carb rebuilt. The two back ports were leaking. Now I pump her twice and she turns over and starts with very little effort. I want to have the car Dyno'ed but I don't have the money at the moment for the 3 hours required. I guess that will be put on the back burner for maybe next year, I can wait. 400 cars!!!!! most excellent. The weather hopefully will be good for the show. To much invested you say!!!!!!!!!!! Now the wife wants to look for new glass for the doors and 1/4's. Ya gotta luv her !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Which ride do you win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Got the Headlight harness in the car late last night. Now comes the fun stuff, taking out the seats and console to take out the old carpeting. Figure we will start on that late this afternoon if we get all that out then we'll tackle getting the old heater core out.

« on: March 29, 2008, 10:26:07 PM »
It really really has to be Spring here in Wisconsin. Why??? Because I finally got my 67 out of the garage and was able to drive it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The day after the official first day of Spring March 22nd, we got 12 more inches of snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Giving us a whopping 101" for the year. So do you think I'm pumped a bit? Drove the car for about 2 hours just to get the feel back. The work I had done on the carb really does make a difference. Now it goes up to my firends place and we will start pulling the interior apart to put in a new heater core ( was a bit chilly today), carpeting, and upper roof rubber weatherstripping for the door glass. Then the final wire harness for the headlights and such. We hope to have all this done in the next 3 weeks because the first big show of the year is the last weekend of April. The feature car for this show is,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you got it!!!!!! Camaro.
