They say 20 gallons but I have not been able to get more than about 16 in mine without getting a bath with gasoline.

69396ss - yeah, I've got the Service Manual, Body by Fisher Manual and Assembly Manual for reference. However, can't think of a better source than in this forum for stuff I can't find in the books. I'm sure there will be more questions on the way.

Maybe someday I'll get to answer one. Von always beats me. He must be hovering like a 69 SS facts vulture. http://www.chevelles.com/forum/smile.gif

69396SS, Yes that's me sailing quietly around in circles, far overhead, looking for a rotting carcass. You should smell my breath. Actually, it's (fact vulture) probably because I normally get up at 5:00AM or earlier out of habit, and immediately get on Team Chevelle to see what's new. And yes I've tried to absorb as much info about '69 Chevelles as possible, some from books, service manuals, etc., some learned on this site and some learned the hard way.

Actually you've been very helpfull to me on a few occasions. I just thought I'd razz you a bit while I was waiting on primer coats to dry.

We should hook up next summer at a show event. I'm in NKY, about 1 1/2 hours from Indy. We should get a caravan going.

You could drive down too Don. http://www.chevelles.com/forum/smile.gif
