  1. Hmmm..I don't have one to check the prefix/suffix letters.....but according to someone we all recognize as quite knowledgeable, the GH's and Packard Hawk's were equipped with high stall converters!

    Avanti Box!

    Yes!..that's one for sure..... Now, how about the other even more important (in my opinion) feature?
  3. WOW!... the February '24 AOAI calendar car!..... Very late '64 square light' with all improvements....Gorgeous Avanti Maroon exterior finish...Halibrand style wheels with whitewalls....R2... Even folks that don't like Avantis (are there people like that?) would fall in love with this one!!

    Avanti Box!

    What two features make the design of the carburetor air box used on the '57 Stude Golden Hawk superior to the carb air box design used for the Avanti R3 engine?

    Avanti Steering!

    Yes, that's it!...A sensible mod I think...Got one on my '63!
  6. What Ford part is quite often swapped into power steering equipped Studebaker Avantis to make the power steering system on these cars easier to service?
  7. Studebaker Avantis and other '63-'64 Studes equipped with Powershift transmissions were equipped with a high stall speed torque converter....This same torque converter was first used in 1957 Studebaker Golden Hawks.... True?

    Avanti Rotor!

    Yes, you are correct, it's a 'drop in' replacement.

    Avanti Pump!

    On an '82 Avanti ll, the engine emission air pump injects clean air into the ----?----- 1) crankcase....2) intake manifold....or..... 3) exhaust manifold
  15. In a pinch, a distributor rotor from a -------- can be used in a Studebaker Avanti. 1) 1955 Stude Commander.....2) 1956 Stude Golden Hawk....or....3) 1959 Stude V8 Lark
  16. On a Studebaker Avanti 'R' engine, the upper oil windage tray (baffle) is suspended by the 3rd (from the front) main bearing cap bolts.....True?

    Avanti Event!

    Yes...that's it exactly...opening the door to the Granatellis racing expertise...and all the superchargers Studebaker could ever hope for!

    Avanti Event!

    A lot of that was going on around the country..but that's not it.

    Avanti Event!

    Good thought, but no Pete.
  20. What event, which greatly effected Studebaker Avanti production, occurred on 3/16/62 ?
  21. I lucked out several years ago..Dave Thibeault got me one of the last NOS Avanti radiators from SASCO..It's in my '63.
  22. Thanks for your comment Nelson..I do not need a radiator right now..but if I have a radiator issue down the road, I would like to be somewhat prepared.
  23. Question....In '63-'85 Avantis, all else being equal, do modern aluminum radiators cool as well as traditional brass radiators?
