1969 Chevelle SS 502 Big block. For more pictures see my Photobucket page: http://s1293.photobucket.com/user/rlewisone/library/
For sale is my 1969 Chevelle SS, I have this car for over 20 years. It came originally out of Florida in 1985.
This car has not been painted or had anybody work done since before 1985 and is just now starting to show some bubbling on 1 lower fender and 1 lower quarter. This also was a vinyl top car so it has had some rust repair done below the rear window that needs some attention. Car also has its share of scratches and nicks on it from the past 25 years. Underneath the car is rock solid, it has been completely sand blasted and painted with POR 15. Frame also is perfect. At one time I had a roll cage in it so there has been some floor repair but it was not from rust.
Almost all of the chrome has been re-chromed, polished or replaced. Door, trunk seals window seals and body bushings have all been replaced. The interior has completely been redone from rug to headliner. New seat foams, rebuilt heater core box and new SS wheel just to name a few of the items. With the exception of the aftermarket gauges and the Hurst shifter in the stock console the interior is stock and looks 100% As you can see in the pictures the intake used is way too high to use the stock SS hood but I do have an original one (red in color) that goes with the car.
The engine is a Gen 5, 502 cubic inch block. I bought just the new short block in the crate from my local Chevy dealer and built it from there. All the machine/assembly and test fire was done at the premier hi-po engine builder “Boucher Racing Engines” in Rowley, MA. They started by tearing it down and checking the line bore and deck heights. All the stock stainless rings were dumped in favor of moly rings and a Melling oil pump was installed. Next came angle milling the Brodix “Big Brodie” heads to achieve the desired 10.1-1 compression along with installing the Comp can solid roller camshaft and port matched Brodix intake with a Holley 850 CFM carb. Engine was test run and tuned in-shop before being installed in the car. These build specs and choice of parts was designed by Boucher’s after a previous very similar engine that made 602 dyno horsepower but with a slightly different cam and carb. I was assured my engine would be 550+ horsepower. The engine installation wash finished up with a custom Hitachi high torque mini starter, hooker super comp 2 1/2 ” primary headers, MSD 7AL ignition (hidden behind the firewall) single wire alternator, custom 4 row radiator and all fuel is run in braided lines and AN fitting from the electric fuel pump to the Barry Grant pressure regulator.
The rearend is from a 1966 Chevelle. (overall its 1” narrower than a 1969) It was completely sand blasted, check for straightness and all reinforced welding done. It was rebuilt with a Moroso brute strength posi unit and Richmond 4.10 gears and Mark Williams hardened axles with C clip eliminators and 1/2 lug nut studs. The upper control arms were custom boxed and the lowers were replaced with South Side machine ladder bars. The rearend is bulletproof.
The transmission is the VIN matching turbo 400 that was rebuilt with a Fairbanks shift kit a new hardened output shaft and a TCI 2500 stall converter. The driveshaft is a custom made Denny’s 1330 series unit that is warranted to withstand 700 horsepower.
I’m sure I have left out tons of info so feel free to call or e-mail me at rlewisone@comcast.net or at 781-233-8341

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
China's rise, global restructuring wither GM's Korea division
Wed, Jan 7 2015An article in the Daily Kanban suggests the sun is setting on GM Korea, and it could already be well into dusk. GM Korea came about when General Motors, along with co-investors SAIC and Suzuki, bought Daewoo Motors from parent company Daewoo Group in 2001; it had a previous tie-up with GM, a joint venture that ended in 1992, although Daewoo cars were based on GM cars until 1996. Over the decade following the purchase, it became such an important part of operations that it was renamed GM Korea in 2011, "to reflect its heightened status in [the] global operations of GM." Just two years later, the printed rumors were that the subsidiary responsible for a fifth of Chevrolet's global production could be shutting down. The division's sales were down almost 21 percent through November of last year, counting domestic South Korean sales, exports, and CKD – Complete Knock Down – products. That makes the labor strife, already an issue for four years, even more acute, reports say the subsidiary will lose $36 million a year if it can't get the job and wage cuts it wants, and government concessions can't make up for the losses. And it gets worse, so head over to Daily Kanban to read the rest of the story.
