Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I just got my new hei kit from Langdon's on Friday. Brown wire indeed goes to tach. What the heck do you use for a bracket? I got the distributor, coil, wire and new plugs from Langdon, and not a word about how to mount the coil...

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
What kind of mufflers? I'm running Fenton headers, and had some no-name turbos installed, I don't like'em. I'm thinking of running Cherry Bombs or Cherry Bomb glasspacks. (What's the difference??)
Any advice? |

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I was looking at Cherry Bomb's website, and they show "Cherry Bombs Old School" and "Cherry Bomb Glasspacks" as two different things. Pics are different, too.
http://www.cherrybomb.com/Catalog/Ca.../mufflers.aspx Back in the early 80s, I sold auto parts, and Cherry Bombs were always glasspacks.... |

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I have purple hornies on mine, I believe they are the same as cherry bombs, they are short straight thru glass pacs. They are unbelievably loud when you get on it and have to be careful where you are when you do. They snarl and bark real load and could get you a ticket if you really stand on the gas. Now I wish I had bought some long smittys instead, but so much for hind-site.
If your lookin for loud these are the babies...Vernski |

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Nice & clean I like that color blue, did you install the lump ports yourself or have it sent out? Very purty with the finned covers and what's the skinny on the fuel injection?..Vernski

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I got the HEI installed Saturday - the old six runs great! I didn't expect that big of a difference. Had Cherry Bombs installed instead of the turbos that were on, I love it! My dad is an old hot rodder, he grinned as soon as he heard it fire up!
