These are gorgeous Chevelle's, over the last decade the different color interiors like red, and parchment, and are really growing on me, too many black interiors around.

<span style="font-size: 14pt">Sweet sound of the Solid Flat Tappet Lifters. I noticed the old link to this stopped working and whenever I can't get to my Chevelle I like to play this. Although, the mufflers are intact externally, I am guessing the baffling is detiorated on the inside which to me sounds a bit more like chambered exhaust.....but, that's okay with me.</span> [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Years &amp; years of open headers, standing at the starting line of a dragstrip between Fuel burning dragsters, listening to the demonic Rock 'n Roll at insane decibel levels, chain saws, screaming wives &amp; kids, .....you get the point. Like many of us who NEVER wore hearing protection because WE WERE TOO MANLY for such SENSELESS things!!!!!, ..... I suffer from Tinnitus. (That's the constant ringing in your ears that will NEVER go away.) Because of that, I sleep with a TV, radio, etc. on just to generate 'white noise' so the ringing doesn't push me over the edge. (Yes, I know: I'm painfully close anyway!)
So, ...... Sam, .............. my point: I want that sound on an endless tape loop. I could fall asleep to that sound every night for the rest of my life!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

----Right there with you, Dennis! Day or night I have the ringing in both ears. A short while back I had to get hearing aids which do bring down the decibel level a notch or two (when I remember to put them in).......Bill S

Cumby has &quot;ringing&quot;..Tibor is hearing &quot;bells&quot;...not sure about Howie, but I'll bet he has strange sounds, too.

Put them all togther and they could have a real band [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Dennis &amp; Bill, I also have the same thing. Always there and very loud. &quot;what did you say?&quot; AND I can't get the video to launch. Darn. And I love that car!

Can you imagine at one time you could go down to the local Chevy dealer and order something that sounds like that................

That is a perfect L78.

Love it
