The kickdown mechanism for passing gear was stolen from my carb many years ago. Does anyone make a replacement? 1969 C20 350 engine with stock automatic and an electronic solenoid for passing gear engagement.

In reply to telecharger livres.

I have a small block Chevy 305 V8 5.0L. I am trying to get the leaks taken care of and I am changing the oil pan gaskets. Can anyone tell me if I should use RTV silicone on both the block and the oil pan?? So both sides of the gasket. Needing some help. Thank you in advance.

Respectfully
Patrick

In reply to john silvis. How do you prime a gas line to the engine from a gas tank behind the seat of a 56 Chevy pick up. It needs suction and I can't figure out how to create such suction. I even bought a 200 ml suction syringe. It isn't enough to draw the gas up from the tank. Any ideas?

In reply to Denny E Noiwiski. Never heard the name Passport, but Apache naming didn't start until 1958 like you were told.

Is a 1957 Chevrolet 3100 short bed step side a Passport or a Apache??? I was told 1958 was the first Apache.

Per the serial number my Chevy 3100 is a 1952 but when I looked at the engines serial number it shows it’s a 1953. My guess is that the engine was replaced but is it possible that the truck was manufactured late enough in the year to get a 1953 engine. Per the serial number the truck was manufactured in September. I appreciate any feedback.

I am assisting in setting up a new museum for antique and classic cars near my city, Mysore, South India.

One of the light trucks on display is supposedly a 1926 Chevrolet as badged by its owner, but lacks any form of identification in terms of logos or manufacturer’s plate.

The engine is a 4-cylinder, side-valve unit, so I am inclined to think it may be a Ford.

I would like to send photographs of the vehicle and engine bay with a request to correctly identify this vehicle. Please send me an email address where these photos could be sent.

Thank you.
