67 283 throttle return spring

Beaumont4008 · Uber Guru

This is out of my 68 manual I think 67 would be the same. shows attached to coil bracket. This one has a throtle cable, yours is probably same as with throtle linkage rod style

beaumontguru · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

Thanks,

I think the 67 is a bit different due to the cables on 68.

Would still like to see a 67 set up on an actual beaumont or velle

this is out of the 66 chassis shop manual

Yes, that 66/67 one is the only pic i could find. But it doesn't show any return spring detail or coil bracket detail.

I need a detailed photo

the 68 one at the top of the page shows all the details, i just need that detail for 67 now.

That was true for 64, 65's. Correct.

But in 67 the pring ran back toward the coil bracket.
Just not sure where it hooked and what it is all suppose to look like stock.

Also the oil filler tube lacked the bracket to hook the spring.
Ive seen 2 different styles of tubes as well. not sure what is stock for a canadian 67 283

Thanks for all the help so far.
Who has a bone stock 1967 283 to post a pic of?

Stephenzone · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

the 66 283 that i got out of an impala was also to the tube. i know not the answer your looking for.

Found this picture of a 67 chevelle, you can just make out spring attaching to coil bracket. See picture of bracket, has a small tab on it for one end of spring.

Interesting. It looks like it has the hole in the thermostat housing for the spring to attach to like some years did, yet it's not being used

I noticed that too, but if you run a spring from carb to thermo housing, the spring binds on hte intake runner. So that isn't proper,

I guess 67 is a unique configuration.

Here is another confusing one. this one looks like there is another spring on the wire loom and attached to the kickdown.

Which bring up another point, what is the proper wire loom on a 67?

Thanks for all the input.
I will have to go through my coil brackets now.

heres mine on the 59.

beaumontguru · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

Thats cool, looks like a very correct 59/60 setup.

Here is a correct 64 setup in my beaumont
Note the wire looms, oil tube, spring, thermo housing, aircleaner, on the 64 cars compared to all the above 1967 pics posted.

You can see there are alot of differences

(excuse my painted coil bracket, temp sender, incorect decal, etc. This photo was taken during my breaking period.) biggrin

Also note, my 64 coil bracket does not have the spring mount like the 67s do.

OK, so i was confused because you said the tab was for the spring. I thought that cant be right, because that tab is for the capacitor to bolt on, also it is toward the back.

So i went thu my box of coil brackets and here is what i found

Viola, the 67 bracket has a small hole in the front!!!!! for the spring
(see pics).
Now it all makes sense. The botom of a 67 carb has a hole in it for the spring, and when paired with a proper 68 bracket, it al works.

Now the onl missing piece it what a correct 67 return spring looks like?

Some guys have too much spare time........

Hey, wait a minute. I think I'm punched in right now??????

as far as i know and can tell my engine is totally original, right down to the original coil. I changed the coil and todd helped me put an mech. choke on, and of course the headers. Yours is lookin really good beaumontguru, some day i will take the time and redo the engine.

Beaumont4008 · Uber Guru

Sorry Dave I guess that picture of the coil bracket I posted was the wrong one. Or it just doesn't show the hole at that angle.

Ian

beaumontguru · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

There is still something missing. That hole in the coil bracket can't be right.
The spring binds on the intake runner(even with a really small spring)
Also the angle is goofy. See picture.

I'm starting to think teh spring attaches to a bracket or a wire loom

There must be someone out there with an unmolested 67 chevelle or beaumont 283 that can post a close up picture of this area

Beaumont4008 · Uber Guru

Your right, does not look right to me eather, who new something so simple would be so compicated. I know its a 68 manual pic but look at the
pic to the right with the non cable linkage , looks like the spring mounts
higher on the coil bracket. I will keep shearching the web and see if there is a better pic. Some body on this board must have a 67.

Ian

beaumontguru · Canadian Poncho Superstar!

Yes, i have been searching the net too, but everyone runs a 4bbl or does some hokey setup.
I sent a note thu the beaumont club too, somone must have a pic of the proper setup.

I see in the pic, you are right, look to atach up higher. It tried hooking it around the screw, it clears the runner, but still doesnt look right on an angle.

It would also be nice to see the upper wire loom in that area too. It looks unique to that setup as well, that why im starting to think the spring might hook to it

Beaumont4008 · Uber Guru

Found this pic of a 67 Malibu, can not see spring at all ! This is just crazy no good pics with out air cleaner.

Taylor55 · Poncho Master!

I have a complete 67 283 out of a 67 Beaumont, when it warms up I'll have a look and see if the return spring is still on it.

That would be great! That is exactly what i need. A detailed pic of an unmolested motor
