I am selling my chevelle due to only putting on 500-600 miles in the last 4-5 years. I thought i would have more time than I do to enjoy it. I bought it in 2004 from a friend and it had a small block 350 in it and a 4 speed tranny. I wanted more horsepower so I had a big block stroker built in Manteca by Walt's Performance Machine. It is a 496 cubic inch big block with a retro solid roller cam setup that alone by itself was $1500+ for cam, lifters and rockers. It has Brodix heads with Girdles, guide plates, heavy duty thickwall pushrods, etc. The bottom end is completely forged and is a pumpgas motor at 10.1:1 compression. It is supposed to make around 850 HP at the crank. It has Hooker Super Competition ceramic coated headers that are a two piece design for maximum flow. It has a Holley Dominator 1150 on an Edelbrock Victor intake. Billet pulleys and brackets, high flow Victor water pump, Griffin Aluminum radiator and mechanical fan with electric backup fan also. There were no shortcuts taken when building this engine. I have approximately $16,000 in just the engine itself, not to mention the Powerglide transmission with 4500 RPM stall, transbrake and scatter shield. I just replaced the transmission cooler lines with rubber high pressure lines with the correct fittings to eliminate the transmission leak at the cooler which has a fan on it as well made by B&M. It has a ford 9 inch rear end that had been rebuilt with all new bearings and seals with 4.88 gears and has been shortened. Wheelie bars are included you will need them! The front and rear suspension has been completely rebuilt with all new bushings, ball joints, tie rods, idler arm, shocks, springs (front and rear). The brake system is hydro-boost so you dont have to worry about engine vacuum. The whole brake system has also been replaced from the master cylinder to all four brake calipers, rotors and hoses, etc. Adjustable proportioning valve also. I just bought new rear tires for it that have maybe 100 miles at most on them. They are Mickey Thompson Sportsman Radials 29 x 15.50 x 15, the front tires are 165R15. The fuel system has a Barry Grant pump I think its a 400 with a 20 gallon fuel cell and 5/8 hose from the pump to the regulator and to the carb as well. If you have any more questions feel free to call me at 209-570-0994 my name is James. The car was built origionally back in 1982 by a local guy named Dennis Van Dyke and he trailered it to a big carshow in which it took 1st place Car Craft Nationals. It has also been in HotRod Magazine and I have the edition to go along with the car. I did take it to sac raceway one time just to see what it would do. I didnt use the transbrake and took off as easy as i could so I would have traction and still pulled a 11.71 on seven cylinders cause when I burnt a plug wire just before I ran it down the track, which has been fixed since then. The car was origionally a 4 door which got shortened by 4 feet so it is rather short, it has a wheel base of 84 inches. The car is also on YouTube and can be seen at the following link. 1969 Chevelle 2 door coupe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0yqyng5lVE and here is one of it running on a backroad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ysE179eVwQ Overall I have put over $29,000 into the car as a whole. Buyers will be responsible for the shipping and or transport of the vehicle once the sale has been completed. Local pick-up is ok as well. This vehicle does have a reserve set on it, and no I won't tell you what it is by emailing me or texting me so sorry in advance.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala
Fri, 31 May 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.
This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
