Australian Chevrolet 216 engine owners

[Lionelgee]

Hello All,

Now that I have your attention

Could someone who owns a Chevrolet truck with a 216 engine in the Land of Oz please let me know the details of their battery? Apart from the battery being a 6 volt I am stumped about the rest. It would be handy to have a name of a battery make and product code off the battery and the cold cranking specifications

Also my engine has not run for at least 20 years so I am wondering if things like distributor points, rotor buttons and caps are readily available and who are possible suppliers for them?

I am going to get the generator, starter motor and coil looked at by an auto electrician. With all those elecrtrical bits and pieces I should have the spark side of getting the engine started sorted out

Kind Regards
Lionel
