You were right!!!!!
Awesome Don!! I picked up a lot of parts today myself, but they were all just stuff to fix the wife's mini-van after a deer decided to commit suicide into the side of it last Monday. 
Wow you haven"t had any luck with the family vehicle"s lately. The day I bought 409, wife"s front brake"s went metal to metal, and hot water heater would not stay lit.fixed brake"s and had to remove burner assembly to clean off residue of top plate . I thought wow here we go!!!!Awesome Don!!

I hate messing with hot water heaters. I'm glad you got yours fixed because a co-worker was telling me that his started leaking and had to be replaced.....and the stores told him that due to some new regulations that all hot water heaters had just gone up nearly $100. He said he was told this from several different stores. I never researched to see if it was true or not.

Who said it would go in my 63??? I just might have to look for a 1964 palomar red ss with the rare silver interior,just like I had back when new??? It was a 340 hp 409 also. With 4 speed. I"m thinking and getting dangerous!!!!
