Re: Valve caps
Go down to your local tire shop... I'll bet they have a can with 50 of 'em in it at any given time, and will just about give them to you. I've never had too much trouble finding them around here.

Re: Valve caps
No substitutes! Really, there are a couple of caps that have the raised dimple on top and look kind of close, but it MUST be a Dill 627. Just about anything crosses over, after all, they all fit on the stem.
Rick: On a releated note - do you have info on the valve extension as used on the 70 SS Chevelle? Part numbers are easy enough to find, but what are lengths? My 12k mile car has - probably - the orig extensions on it. Dave

Re: Valve caps
I have a friend who supplied GM with some oddball fasteners, light hardware, etc in the 70's & 80's. Says he knows exactly what Dill 627's are and has some (like boxes of 100) if he can find them. I have been thru his stuff long ago, nothing interesting, but I was not up on these caps. I'll keep you guys posted. I did find 7 of em in our can at the tire machine out of the 500 I looked at. I have to go now............my employees have called in some guys in white suits get me some help.

Re: Free Dill 627's
OK, My friend was able to find 400 NOS Dill 627 caps. Sounds like enough for 80 cars. All I want for 'em is what I paid.......NOTHING-FREE. Heres the only way I can think of to do this: Email me at [email protected], tell me you are sending me a self addressed postage paid envelope George Lyons 4910 Peach Street Erie, PA 16509. Limit 5 caps per friend, OK ? I will respond to every Email request until the 400 are gone, but dont send it out til I do so I dont waste your $ if they go too fast. I'm working on another source for more so hang in there. Boy I sure hope this doesn't go under my famous heading of "No good deed goes unpunished"
