Originality / Spark Plug Wire routing....?
« on: July 13, 2010, 05:23:20 AM »
Can anyone tell me, hopefully with pics, what the spark plug wire routing was for a 327 in a 67 camaro? Looking to see where looms were mounted on valve covers and then any other holders used getting them to the dist.. I seem to be getting conflicting info from NPD and Rick's Camaros.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Yes it is Mike. Unfortunately the hole for the joint has gotten bigger so my plan is to tig it and re drill. Current condition it wont stay conected.
Thanks for playing my game....

Is this a original brake cylinder part number? I inverted the pic so number could be read.

The wheels has a piece of paper or sticker on the rim area when taking off the cover. Is this a factory tag? Can't make out what it might say.

Trans. cover missing. O'well I'll have to find one. Are the originals the same as the repro?
If you have a trained eye you should see a hanging rod on the right side of pick. Can you name it? What it does? Where it attaches? I'll save the answer and have some fun with this one.

Today I drove it to my home for further repair. Suspension wiggles upon physically shaking so that's first. Will introduce engine to degreaser and take more pics.
I feel a little overwhelmed as my friend heavily relies on me for guidance. Not my car or money so little stressful. He is looking to spend $1000 at the best laid areas. My thoughts are getting it dependable, safe, and clean and then create a wish list to chip away at.
Powerglide slipped under heavy acceleration and up hills. Has anyone rebuilt one that can tell me what I'm getting into? While doing this I plan on rebuilding motor and using new rings if shop says I can get away with it (hope not to bore). I've only worked on a Muncie.
Keep the opinions coming...much appreciated.

Double checked on A/C. Your are correct, thank you. Talked to local machine shop. They gave similar advice.

:)Here is my story...
My friend Kris was given Grand dad's '67 camaro after moving to Florida. He only knows how to turn a key on a car so I am helping since I have restored a '67 camaro before.
So far I documented it as 100% original (#'s match) with the exception of normal maintenance items and the vinyl top replaced. Not a dent in the car (rust in normal places). Original paint! This a BASE camaro with a 2 sp powerglide, 327 with 2 barrel carb., and A/C. Funny thing about the A/C is Grand Dad says it was dealer installed! Story has it that he ordered a blue camaro and this one came in, so he bought it if they would add A/C.
Your not going to believe my next statement but it is TRUE!! A/C still works and all A/C hoses are only connected with hose clamps....is this possible?!?!?!...hose clamps?
10 bolt rear end. Soft top was redone at some point. Engine has also never been opened according to his stack of maintenance sheets that put the yellow pages to shame. He kept every oil change receipt!!!!
The first of many questions is this....what to do with it?
Friend is looking for my advice. I'm a proponent of original so what can I do with trans and engine to start with? Only rebuilt Muncie....how different is this? It leaks oil from every seam and then some. So it needs rebuilding.. what can I get out of the heart of the engine keeping the same look so it has more excitement and reliability but looks the original to your eye?
More to come...please give thoughts.
