Default 69 Chevelle Questions...

Helping my neighbor with his 69 Chevelle re-fresh...have a few questions:

Malibu cloned to SS396...325hp w/ 4spd and power steering.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-the fan shroud doesn't look deep enough...fan blades are barely inside...the shroud measures 2.5 inches in depth...seems to me it should cover the blades more completely. He has a long water pump...with clutch fan setup.

-there is a brown wire with a 90* end [looks original] that is near the brake booster. Is there supposed to be an idiot light connection for the brakes?? He installed a repro booster, master cylinder combo...

-proper way to bleed brakes for this car...should he remove master and bleed separately?? or can we do this installed?? of course, we don't want fluid on the fresh paint...please advise.

-what is the correct routing of washer hose to squirters [mounted under hood]..I see 2 round holes in the plastic mesh near the windshield..??

-correct place to attach negative cable...I think it goes on the block...??

-he made new inner fender flaps...needs the staples to attach...best source??

well that's enough for now...many thanks in advance

standing by,

wilma
