Ok folks....

I sent the group of Photo's out and I believe that Greg Roberts will be posting them on the Nova Site at http://www.chevynova.org where you can then download them as required. These were cortesy of Mike Thorpe in Calgary and are intended to help anyone research or restore their CTB coded blocks the way they did them in the production line. Enjoy them...and thanks Mike!

Hello,

Here is the pre-release page that shows all of the pictures. Let me know your technical comments. I can revise the page as needed.

Thank you for the pics, they are invaluable for the Yenko Deuce resto efforts. It's nice to see the detail items that coincide with what has been found on various Yenko Deuce engines, specifically the white 'X's on the ends of the heads. These pics will be added to the Yenko Deuce Info Book that is supplied to all Deuce owners, now it's just a little bit longer. I will also incorporate them into the long awaited Yenko Deuce Resto Detail thread.

You are welcome. I am just providing a home for this information. It is the folks who send the pictures, details and stories that make it work. I will continue to post what I get for the benefit of the hobby.

I am slowly building information for the Yenko Deuce Research Site

Greg

I was thanking the sender of the pics, but a big thanks to Gregg as well for starting the NRG and for hosting his site.

As of now the Yenko.net site is the place for my Deuce details as we try to keep a common focal point for this stuff. The deuces were all built in 3 consecutive weeks, which has made our research window quite small compared to the larger effort that Gregg has undertaken. Major Kudo's to Gregg and his NRG for taking on such a task, think CRG but for Novas

Those pics are amazing, the more I look at them, the more I see. For eg; it would appear that the back of the engine was never painted, you can see where it trails off behind the last exhaust port. It also looks like there was a lot more overspray on the front of the intake at one time, including the bottom of the thermo housing, and part of the hi-rise section under the carb. Two different head bolt markings. A white X on the intake in front of the distributor. Funny looking bracket holding the fuel line behind the vac. secondary. The list goes on!! Good pics.
