Hank, the squealing could also be the pilot bushing going bad. I don't have an M21, but do have a M20 that has been rebuilt. I also have an M21 that I got when I bought the Hemi. I don't know the condition, but it looks good with the door off.
Tell Henry to work some over-time. |

I though of that Tony but it didn't squeal with the engine running and the car stopped. That's when I would think it would squeal the most. With the car moving, in gear, clutch engaged, the flywheel and input shaft are spinning together at the same speed and it squealed then. That was my thoughts, am I looking at it wrong?

John, Friday was miserable, hot and humid, some rain. Saturday, awesome, perfect weather and the place was packed. I can't find any info on the number of cars yet but it had to be at least 3,000. Always been a variety of classics, anything from 1978 or before, but seemed to be even more weighted towards muscle cars than in the past.

You are thinking correct Hank.
The golf carts this year were a real pain in the ass. It has gotten way out of hand. The number of hot rods was way down this year. Maybe just dinosaurs like me are still building them. Look at the ratios on a 21 compared to a 20. You may want the 2.52 first gear in there. I really liked it in my Chevelle. That's the reason I bought this one, for the Nova. I'm just too lazy to swap them. |

The problem with an M20 is 1st and 2nd are too close together. If I let the RPMs drop going into 2nd I get engine braking. I could start in 2nd or start in 1st and skip second.
I mentioned to Henry what you said about the Nova, he agreed he couldn't afford it now. He was also a little concerned about the warranty after talking to Ric this weekend. |

I will be writing a email to the Frankenmuth organizers to request that they review the golf carts and keep it to just handicap people and not to who ever has one like they did this year.

Ric, I am in contact with the head service writer at Applegate Chevrolet in regards to the lighter problem. He is going to contact the Zone Rep and see if he can get it covered under the warranty. If that fails, I will pursue a meeting with Zora Duntov to see if we can get this resolved. My sales manager is offering to send a wrecker to pick the car up for your convenience. How's that for after the sale service?

I think the tob is tied to both accessories, by way of a 3/8 " cable. When one goes bad, the weight of the cable tries to interface the other two, thus creating a fault at the computer box. Let me check that hypothesis out on my phone. |
