- Decided I needed a new video of the car. Cleaned it all up today and used the iPhone to do a quick walk around.
1970 Chevelle
496 Big Block
AFR 290 heads
Dougs D316 Headers
Mahle 18cc Pistons (10.7:1 compression)
Straub Hydraulic Roller Cam
Magnaflow 3" x-pipe exhaust
Prosystems 4150 Carb
That is so sweet, stance, color interior/exterior, 496 and the sound is amazing.
have owned my # matching '70 SS since 1989. It was identical, Green, white and white.Had I thought it had the potential to look that good I would have repainted it Green rather then Red white and white. As far as i know, there is only one other R/w/w '70 running around Detroit area, which is why I like the white stripes and interior. U have a really nice ride!
what cam r u runnin?
Even has A/C. Sweet. Music to my ears.
That chop sounds good
I remember seeing this car at the Zaxby's in Hiram. I interrupted your meal to tell you it was absolutely perfect, but I guess you get that all the time! LOL
+warron7 It has changed a little since this video was made, but still gets attention every time it goes out
Stunningly beautiful.
Perfection
Dream ride !!!! Sounds incredible
I often wondered what a 70 Chevelle would look like if it was like a 2nd gen Camaro with a split bumper. I think it has a possibility of looking badass.
I hear the crickets that’s a amazing sound
The passenger side is fine but the driver side is certainly tight. I have 1 7/8" Doug's headers and the steering shaft at one point was touching the primary tube (as evidenced by a rub mark on the shaft.) That being said, it is nothing extreme or overly difficult to compensate for. I'm not sure about 2"+ primary tubes although I know a few guys that run them. I would imagine anything bigger would require a dimple in the pipe.
Looks real good!
Piece of art
Y'all hear them horses galloping? READY to RUN!!
Magnaflow from headers to mufflers with Flowmaster tail pipes.
That's a nice car man. I love it.
Beautiful
Which Magnaflow exhaust system is this....which mufflers did you use?
My customer loves the tone.
Hes also got a 70 Chevelle SS396....with a 496 in his car with Brodix heads and intake and big tube headers.
This was…11 years ago, so can’t exactly recall. It is my recollection that this was the Magnaflow “kit” for the 70-72 but with the Flowmaster rear pipes (as they are/were better designed.
beautiful Chevelle
damn what a gorgeous car and man does she sound bad ass! I noticed you switched up to electric fans later. how much of a difference in maintaining temps from a flex fan to electric fans?
Eric , your chevelle is awesome! I have a 70 same color except green interior. I have a 496 with a turbo 400. Looking to put in a T 56 like you did. Do you have a forum or a list of what gear ratio your tranny was , rear end , clutch and what shifter
You used? Thanks for your help !!
Is that a cloth bench with fold down arm rest? I'm looking high and low for some fresh seat covers that aren't vinyl. My plane Jane is just a scud right now but she is green on green.
Beautiful chevelle!! Where did you get the front spoiler from?
The green plate is a nice touch Eric. I guess I lucked out being that my '70 is blue.
I know you said they were Magnaflow's but which mufflers are you using? And is it stainless?
Yes, full stainless system. Magnaflow part number 15898, just different tail pipes.

I also have a Magnaflow kit on my LS3 corvette.
Fast forward to about 40 seconds.

Awesome.
clean. nice.
I have a chevelle. Love your exhaust and wheel combination. Could you please tell me what size wheels and offset it is? Also, what exhaust are you using? Thanks!!
RANDY TURNER I know the tears were 15x10 with a 5.5" backspace. I don't remember the front but believe they were standard 15x7. This was quite a while ago and things have since been changed. The exhaust was Magnaflow with an x pipe. Don't remember which headers were on the car when this was shot, either Dougs or the updated Lemon's.
Awesome chevelle!!! Just wondering how the hydroboost brakes work? Also where did you buy the kit from .. thanks
What size primaries on the headers and what u running for a cam?
At the time this car had Doug's 1-7/8" Headers. It now has Lemon's 2" primary headers. The cam is a hydraulic roller from Straub Technologies. 240/240 632/592
yeeeeehhhaaaaaawwwwww !!
what a sexy mean green clean machine !!!!
Is that struab cam any good never heard of them....I just looked them up I like they grinds
Brother! im a big fan of your car I literally stalk your wheel specs online lol. Im about to pull the trigger but I am confused on this setup. So from what i can gather for sure the rear is 15x10 5.5 back space on a 295/50-15 got it. Now the fronts...are they 15x7 with 4 inch backspace or 15x8s with 4.5 ...are you running 245/60-15s or 235/60-15s I have read you give these different replies just want to be 100% to yours. Thanks!
Sorry, it has been too long to remember the exact specs of these wheels.
Nice Chevelle
Hey Eric, wondering if you still have the dougs headers and would consider selling them. We have a 1971 chevelle with a 496 with AFR heads and have tried other headers with no success.
I do actually and am getting ready to move. I would be happy to see them get used. Are you local?
This is by far the best sounding 8100 i have heard!!! What did the came increase the torque and HP specs to...and about how much was the kit?
cam* (autotype)
Nice car
looks awesome. what size front and rear rims and tires are those and (assuming they are after market) what brand rims?
David Taylor This was 3 or 4 wheels ago but they were 15x8s on the front and 15x10s on the rear. As I recall, they were Wheel Vintiques 50 Series wheels, which are easily found at places like Summit Racing.
+Eric Fleming what size tire is on that 15x10 wheel and do you know the back spacing on the wheel
295/50-15. Wheel has 5.5" backspace.
Would like to know where they got that sealed air breather w/o the snorkel
Idk, sounds like a chopper at idle. Think I'll go with flowmaster
You think flowmasters are going to sound better?? Good luck!
Eric Fleming they do...how do you not like them
TheCowGoesMoo o Flowmaster despite the name is one of the worst flowing mufflers on the market.
Most camera's do not have great microphones. So they don't do it justice. Also, Flowmaster's have NOT done well, in every muffler comparison/test, I've seen. Even Dynomax super turbo's were better.
@@406_chevelle8 they sound like a tin can how can you stand that?
Plus a/c!
Hear that cam talkin
Is it pretty streetable with that much hp?
With 295/55-15 MT ET Street Radials it puts all 580hp (est. 700 crank) to the ground. With a normal street tire it would just be a smoke show. Streetable just depends on how much self control you have over your right foot but it drives just fine in traffic, around town, etc.
Eric Fleming I'd like to see a dyno sheet showing 580 to the tires with that size cam and it being hydraulic. I've seen a 509 with AFR 315 CNC head motor with a solid comp roller spec'd at .666 lift and .260 @ .050 duration make 740hp at the flywheel doubt those are realistic numbers on a hydraulic cam 496...?
brgable And I've seen a 468 with aluminum Brodix heads only make 365hp....
BUT because you doubt these are realistic numbers, here is the only dyno sheet I can find at the moment. You are right and caught me in a lie, it doesn't make 580 to the tires, it only makes 575hp and 580tq.
Not sure exactly how you expect me to post a photo in youtube, but here is a link you can copy and paste.

Those are very good numbers and I'm willing to bet it'll make 580/580 at the flywheel every day and twice on Sunday!! However, saying it makes that to the wheels when you have a dual plane intake and A/C compressor I mean seriously come on if that made those number to the tires it's at least losing 25% from the flywheel. That's like conservatively putting it at 775+ flywheel...
***** Always someone on the internet who knows it all. What can I say, it has been confirmed on multiple dynos. Build a motor with matched components and not just order shit out of a Jegs catalog. I'm not the only one who has a 496 making this kind of power. Straub, Foxwell, Mark Jones.... they are all building motors with this kind of power.
Also, I'm not "saying" it makes that kind of power, I am proving it with a chassis dyno printout. However, to clarify points you made, it now has a port-match Vic. Jr and sequential fuel injection with a T56 Magnum, but yes, it still has A/C.
It’s so quiet
Where did you get the air cleaner stickers
There is a guy on Team Chevelle that made them. User name - TC.
What fuel pump do you run on this motor
What’s size tire you have front and back?
Eric, did you receive my email in regards to the headers?
do know the part no. for the mufflers
I see this was a factory AC car
Why waste the money on an X pipe when straight dual exhaust is better?
What is the CC of the heads?
that was 593rwhp???
@ 1:05
any idea what it can run or numbers it's putting out?
+gencoupegirl I never really set this car up to drag race. It did go 11.15 @123 or 124 (can't remember, 120 something) with a 1.65 60'. The lock-up converter was a compromise for good street manners but not loose enough to really get the car moving very fast. It now has a 6-speed T56 Magnum and is significantly slower with me driving. On the dyno the car made 593hp and roughly the same torque.
How's the T56? Did you have any difficulty getting the new trans to match up?
T56 is great! I have one going in my 71 Corvette at the moment as well! The tunnel requires cutting to fit.
Is the duration 240 or 340?
@ .050" numbers. Not advertised nonsense. 240.
i am located in new york near buffalo
The issue is shipping cost. If you really want them I'll figure up a price and see what it costs to package and ship them. Email me if you want more details. Fleming23@yahoo
Id throw some borla atak's on that thing
cams specs?? lsa?? lift??
