    Cudoos to Paragon Corvette

    Paragon help me out big time. I was in need of a part (Holley, float bowl) they don't supply, and shipping from other vendors was plain cruel. I asked them if they could help me out. Without hesitation, they said yes. They asked if I wanted to order and ship it to them or if they (small fee)...

    Flushing an engine

    My engine has been sitting around for a while. Should I flush the water cooling channels? If so does someone have a procedure or is it just sticking a garden hose in it? Any need for additives?

    1972 BB Water Pump

    Yesterday I wanted to install my water pump. While rotating it it made a horrible rattling noise. I tried to flush it but it is still there. So it is time for a new one. Is there a "useful" upgrade possible? HD, aluminium, reverse flow etc? I'm not switching to electric.

    Fastener alternative

    Guy´s I have a new core support and seals for my 72, only thing I did not order/get are the plastic fasteners to attach the seals to the core. These fasteners are all out of stock at the moment (Paragon, Ecklers, Willcox) and are expected earliest in December. Does anyone have a good alternative?

    Dizzy and coil?

    Guy's, I'm looking at some old pics, to prepare my engine build up. I realized something! I have a HEI converted dizzy, and an additional COIL! Other then that the coil on the dizzy could be broken, is there another reason for this? Could I buy just any HEI distributor cap to replace it, or...

    What drug did they use when . . . .

    They designed the bumpers on my '72. I was working on my front bumper what a lousy fit, the amount off brackets, degrees of freedom (except for the way I wanted) and remind me what should it protect? Back in the days those guys most have been on something. Someone out there with some useful...

    69-72 BBC Core support

    Guy's Can any one with a 69-72 BBC (any 27" will do, I think) take some measurements of the radiator support core brackets location for me. Small schematic with some basic dimensions is fine.
