Edmonton, Alberta
I was up in Edmonton last week and saw a lot of nice 67-72 trucks! That must be the Canada's largest concentration of our trucks.

Hey I see that in your signature you have a 400/ 400 combo. How long have you had that and are you happy with that combo? Any Problems? Enough Power? Do you have a quarter mile time?
Thanks JHickson6 Hoping to have a 400/400 combo soon in my 67! |

I wouldn't have any other combination. My 400 sb is making approximately 425 hp with a single 750 Carter. The heads were the biggest improvement; Dart Pro1's with 64cc chambers, 2.02/1.60 valves. Cam is Comp Cam Magnum Series .501 lift and 244 duration. The TH400 is great but I had to change to 4:10 gears to get the hole shot I wanted. The TH400 has a higher 1st gear than the TH350. I have 2 other 400 sb's in the garage waiting for installation into my 69 Chevelle and my 32 Highboy (fiberglass).

Next time you are in Alberta, you need to come 3 hours south to Calgary. We have at least as many 67-72's if not more than our Edmonton cousins to the north.

Sheet Metal
Hey, Mountain Man, I hear you have some places in Alberta to get parts for my 70C/10, like body sheet metal? Let me know which
you prefer. Sorry, submitted this twice by mistake.

Scott's Supertrucks in Penhold, Alta keeps pretty much every item for these trucks in stock. Prices are not too bad either.
Email me off board if you want the ph # Reid repo1@shaw.ca

Blue Chevy - I would agree with Repo1 , recommend Scotts Super Trucks for sheet metal pieces. They carry it all. I stop in there at least once a month.
