hey
lol

 

here are some pics from the summer rebuild








my dad with the engine on the stand





a pontiac guy helping us out



here is a pic of the car at a show near the end of the summer

 

Nice! It looks great.

Did you double check that Pontiac guys work? I hear they mess things up quiet a bit.

 

haha

we watched him very carefully

 

oh, and btw, that last pic, with the engine being suspended, it is only being held onto the chain by two head bolts

 

Hey, is that Archie Bunker's house across the street ?

 

LOL

 

haha

 

hahaha..here we go !

 

if thats archies house across the street, wouldn't that make it either mcnab's or frank lorenzo's gtx? if it was frank's car, prolly means irene was the one wrenching on it...

 

Nice, I forgot about them...lol

 

haha

 

can anyone identify what company this piston is from?

 

They look to be TRW, speed pro, or sealed power, whichever you prefer to call them.

 

i was wondering, because i didnt know many companies that used arrows on the pistons

 

The arrow was a hint for me, but the part number gave it away.

 

so their speed pro pistons?

 

The three companies I listed are all the same, the names can be used interchangeably.

I used Sealed Power, but their logos are also the same, you'll see speed pro and sealed power are lighting bolts.

 

ok
thank you

 

I only used two head bolts while putting an engine in..

Car looks good man.

i just find it so wierd when you got near 700 or so pounds being held up by only two bolts

 

from a picture near the top of the page, can anyone tell me what kind of rods i have?

 

Your rods appear to be stock, but hard to tell from the distance of the picture.

 

haha
no, i think joe dirt had a hemi roadrunner

 

My dad used to a 67 belvedere gtx (along with some satellites) and I was at my grandparents house looking through an old shed and found some parts for it. I found a grill, tailight panel, all seats, windshield, chrome pieces, steering wheel, mirrors,etc. The grill, tailight panel, seats, and windshield are in pretty good shape and I was wandering if you know if these would be worth anything. I might end up needing more money to fix up my 74 roadrunner and I'm only 14. I'm sorry I know this is off of the topic but I dont know where to put it because I'm new to this forum. Thanks!
