Hi all,

I would like to find OEM Seat Covers for my '66 Delta 88.
If not, I would like something pretty close.

I checked several places.  I just received a packet from Marathon Seat 
Covers. It is a good price $219 front and rear, but it has large and small 
quilted ribs not equally sized ribs.

TIA,

Just drove the 75 Cutlass Supreme today for the first time in about 7
weeks, K named it the "Deerslayer", should be the "Titanic". At a
intersection you can really bluff the people in Geo Metros. The right hand
rule does not apply when you weight 3 tons metric. I use the Sonama to push

Pinging happens when the air-fuel mixture is being heated to the point where
it detonates prior to the spark. As for why this would happen in a cold
engine I couldn't say exactly, perhaps the cylinders are not lubricated
properly, so are getting VERY warm until the oil pump gets running well.

Well, not to be dick or anything, but shouldn't you worry about the carb
before the timing?
I have an '84 quadra also by chance, I took it into the shop last week to
get the m/c soleniod adjusted, and they screwed that carb up BAD. The
secondaries no longer work.  It is currently being rebuilt on them. STill
pisses me off to be without my car for that long.

th200 tranny right? I have the same one, and am contemplating the same swap,
changing out a 307 for a 455, or perhaps a 403. A stock th200 will make a
great grenade behind a 455, so I've heard. I have also heard a very well

than a th400.

Never trust a factory gauge for accuracy.  Measured across the battery
terminals you should get around 14.5 V so 15 is not that high.  As long
as it comes back down to the 14.5 range your good.

Harry;
Probably reading funny, 14.5 to 15.1 is reasonably normal with a light
electrical load, however idling in gear at night with a/c, and lights on
will show about 12v. + or = a tad. Disconnected battery is 2.1 to 2.2 volts
per cell. x 2 = 12.6v. Have to exceed that or battery doesn't charge.
Usually anything over 13.6v is OK.

2 cents;
And detonation occurs when you have a spark and the heat and pressure cause
another fire to start in the combustion chamber at the same time, the two
flame fronts collide and broken pieces occur. Pinging and detonation are
NOT the same. Starting the flame all over again. Miss me?
Lou
PS Could be running very lean when cold, that would cause it too. Lean
mixtures cause pinging and detonation both.

But they are fun, keeps you on your toes. Old 76 TA ran at 15.3 all the
time, checked it with a outside VM. Still the same, changed alternators
three times, all ran the same voltage. Nothing ever burnt out, didn't boil
the battery, had really good headlights, they were Halogens and plus the
high voltage, they would destroy your retinas.

This has Olds in it. A friend had a 38 Olds 4 dr. Corvette frame with the
Olds body on top. Brought it over to show me, 427 Chevy in it, pretty car
though. We're drinking beer and playing pool, wife says "Spoolie" (I didn't
name him) I think your cars on fire. Battery in trunk and cables not
shielded, it wore though, set it on fire, I grabbed the garden hose, it's
about 20 feet too short. This was before we annexed into the city, wife
called the local volunteer fire dept. We burnt the heck out of our hands
pulling the rear seat out and disconnecting the batt cable. Dragged the
seats to the hose and put it out, fire guy drove by once,(smoke and
flames), finally came back way too late, it was a pick up with a 350 gallon
water tank on the bed and a hand pump. I petitioned the city for annexation
the next week, thank god it wasn't the 442.

A buddie of mine has an orange 1970 340 Duster with 'Vitamin C' on the deck
lid.  He bought it off the floor of the Cleveland Autorama so you can
imagine how nice it is.
   My latest car the 1978 Cutlass strip only car is kinda silly.  I had my
artist friend air brush "Scalded  Dawg" on either side of the car with  a

Double sorry for the non-Olds but as with most all of these internet chain
letters this one too is a hoax. Please don't bring these items to the list.
The link above IS direct to the Miller site where they very clearly claim
this a hoax.

Now, on to the Olds. I found out the '69 has a Th400 under it. I was under
the impression that these Cutlasses basically came with a Th350. It was
re-built 18 months prior to the last time the car was registered in 88. The
car was stored in 88 until it surfaced last fall. In looking at the odometer
the car has 90,000.2 miles on it. I still can't get over how clean the cars
underside and frame is. Definitely a keeper for restore.   Gary....

Subject: 15" wheels

Are there large differences in the ralley wheels made in the sixties compared 
to later years (70's and 80's) ?  The trim rings I purchased will not fit the 
15" wheels that I have. I found the wheels at a local parts yard and they 
looked the same as the 14" I have. I am not sure of the year on either set. 
Original trim rings came with the 14". I purchased the 15" rings from Fusick. 

Do I need different rings or wheels?

Who sells the most accurate looking rings?  The rings from Fusick don't look 
as nice as the originals that I have.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Subject: Parking lights- Fixed!!!!

For those that helped out on this problem I would just like to
thank you again. I checked on the car and the brown/white 
wire that supplies voltage to the parking lights did have 
12V.  Smelling something fishy I measured the current and
there was only a couple milli-amps.  What was happening was
that there was corrosion on the contacts at the fuse.  The 
current was still flowing but there was enough resistance 
that there was only enough current left over to light the 
front parking lights.  Pulled the fuse, cleaned the contacts, and
good as new.  Also fixed the intermittent brake light problem by
replacing the hazard light/turn signal switch.  And last but not
least was the interior lights.  Someone had disconnected the
orange wire for the courtesy lights (switched ground system)
and rigged up some wires for the map light.  After putting
all the wires back the way they were supposed to be, I plugged
the orange wire back into the fuse panel and blew the fuse.  
Finally traced that problem down to a light bulb.  Someone had
stuck a single contact bulb in one of the under dash light and 
the contact on the bulb was shorting across the two contacts
in the socket.  Quite a fun day of crawling around under/in the
dash.  Maybe now I can work on my Olds ;-)

Subject: Re: 15" wheels

I have SSIII's on my 68.  Late model 15's on the back and early model 14's
on the front.  The 15's had some pretty sorry trim rings and I found a set
in
the yard on a 85 Cutlass that almost exactly match the 14's  There is some
minor difference in the outer part by the tire and on the inside by the
center
of the wheel the 15's curve up while the 14's are straight.  Pretty minor
differences and not very noticable.  The other difference is the trim around
the holes in the center of the rim.  Early rims are more squared off than
the
more rounded later ones.

1972 Monte Carlo and I need to sell off the parts from my two door to finish 
out my other projects. The car is basically complete (I used a few parts for 
my 4 door) and the 455 runs! The 400 THM is shot but it probably could be

were there any drawbacks?

I have heard some vendors say that Polygraphite can

Also, does anyone on the list have experiences with
upgrading their sway bar on a full size car?   Just

As far as Holley, gots a tired old spreadbore double pumper, a Holley carb

Make any offer, like as not will ship for a modicum + shipping.

If no offers, will post on Ebay as a package deal.

Matt,

I have a set of Hooker headers with the high temp coating on them, they 
almost look like a dull chrome. They came off a 71 cutlass with a 350, 
they are in great shape, they are over your budget, I would like $100 for 
the set, I will pay shipping depending on where you are. Where are you 
located??? These are a nice set of headers!!!!!
