Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Olds O-type rears have positively retained axles, which is nice, and aftermarket axles are available. The downside is the limited availability of new gear sets (3.42/3.91 only). Older (some NOS)...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

I'd ditch the heat riser, just make sure the choke works on the carb, you'll be fine. I started and ran my '83 without issue a ton of times with headers (so no heat riser) and a working choke in...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

There are a few floating around. Dick Miller claimed to produce nearly exact repros... there were some pics of them next to an original a few years ago, but I'm not sure where to find them anymore....

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

I know you have your eye set on a few engine builders, but I recommend you at least consider/talk to BTR Performance in Rochester, NY. I didn't realize how close you are to his shop, and Bill is...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Sometimes you can make friends with the local tow company, and offer them cash to move it when they don't have any service calls or priority work. Should be able to get a break and they'll move it...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

If your bumpers don't have external surface rust and haven't been hit/bent, they are likely as nice as you'll ever find. Clean them up for now, rattle can the inside silver if it really bugs you,...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Stefano, sorry for the incorrect assumption.

Ryan, I took a quick skim through the '69 Engine PIM section I have, Section 6-1 Page 210 has the clutch options. There are OU/OS/OW... I think it...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

The most obvious issue would be leaking fluid. Other than that, you can try to spin the fan with the clutch stationary, and the fan should &quot;drag&quot; and not spin more than 1/4-1/2 revolution. If it...

Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Awesome car, looking forward to seeing it at MCACN!
