hows it going whomever trys to help,... ive got a 69 chevelle witha 307, the original two barrel, so aside from the question ive got if anyone else has a 69 try and stay in touch so that you can give me tips on how to fix it up myself, something cheap but good and effective is always cool. alright very simple like, every time i accelerate too rapidly i get a rambling sound resembling like something being kicked around inside, but it doesnt do it when out of gear, ,,. torque converter? flywheel? everything looks nice and snug and ****...

Rambling? Can you explain the noise better? Is it pinging? Rambling is what my girlfriend does, so if its doing that you should sell it!

yeah it kind of pings like somethings being kicked around in there, but i mean it only does it when i accelerate, whick kinda sucks, cause even though its just a small horse engine, its still nice to move out of tight spots quickly with out it .... i got it man, it sounds like a grating sound.

Ok , you might have answered your own question..lol You said it kind of pings...Does it sound like your engine is rattleing? You may have too much spark advance. Have you checked your timing? If you have the original distibutor in it I would start with first setting the dwell to 30* and then adjust the timing to whatever it says on the decal under the hood. Probably somthing like 4* btdc.
