Engine Choices
well I'm looking for some information and ideas on engine. At this moment i have two ideas for a engine for my 72 Chevelle.
The First is to buy a newer 6 Liter from a Chevy truck for about 400-600 bucks. This includes all the wiring and computer etc, but i believe that it is all shot because the truck was a total loss because it went for a swim in the dugout. I know that the motor is good because i know the guy that owned the truck. So because the computer and stuff is shot i was thinking to get the edelbrock conversion for the LS1 to make it a carb because it will fit on the 6 liter no problem and the matching cam to go along with it. From what i have read the stock engine made about 325hp and would like to keep it at about the same hp level.
The second is getting a 454 big block from a early 90's truck for about 700. Once again this motor is fuel injected ( God only knows where the computer and wiring harness is). The question for this one is can i put on any 454 intake to make it a carb. I believe that there is still a spot on this motor for a distributor( I have not seen this motor yet and just going on what was told to a friend of a friend of a friend). I would like to change the cam to try and get some more hp.
Right at this moment I'm feeling that the 6 Liter is the engine of my choice because i have latched on to a article that has done the same to the LS1 and the made the same numbers as stock injected motor. But on the other hand a 454 is a 454 and i know that big power can be made. Any one that has any ideas, suggestions, experience for these 2 ideas hearing them would be excellent. I need some others input before i put out the money.
Thanks, John
As for the 454 you would have a peanut port engine and a computer cam that would work with a carb but combined would be a basic dog... The 6.0 ltr on the other hand with a carb setup is fast becoming an good option these days everywhere I read... I have an on going project of putting a 5.3 ltr in my 69 C10 but will be going all computer controlled but the carb setup is an option too... My vote is for the 6.0 ltr
Just another question i though of last night. About what horsepower did the 6 liter come with stock and the 454 come with stock??
Thanks for the ideas Bumpstick. Its kinda the same way that I'm feeling.
If you want to run fuel injection you can install a digital fuel injection DFI that is fully programable! some sugestions- Accel / fast and the cheapest edelbrock ! stay clear from the holly projection units!
A 454 BBC is a gas mileage pig. I'm still amazed how bad my mileage is just driving down the highway with no load. My 4000lb, 1970 c10 gets 8 to 9 mpg in the city and 11 to 12 on the highway with a 3.08 gear, th400, very mild rv roller cam, 2000 stall, no headers. With headers and a tighter shall the mpg should go up 1 or 2 mpg. Power is enough for 7.0 second 0-60, and high 14's at 96 mph.
Sure the 454 is powerful and can pull strong only using a 3.08 gear with a 3 speed automatic trans. But the new 6.0 liter with od trans can do the same if you use a 3.55 gear plus get 50% better mileage and do it in a much quieter.
I would go for the newer engine. BBC's are heavy and suck fuel like crazy.
You should get the complete engine and trans from a later model 6.0 truck. Spend the money now to get the complete engine and forget the incomplete engine. Auto recycle'rs sell them from fan to trans tail shaft complete with belts, accessories, and computer for around 2500. Then you will need another 500 to modify the factory wiring and a few more hundred for drive shaft mods and a speedometer change (need electrical speedometer for new OD trans).
The edelbrock kit for efi conversion to carb is also a pretty good idea. But efi is nice.
How deep was the water that the 6.0 truck was in? These are somewhat water proof (only to a certain extent) so don't count it out completely. I would say go with the fuel injection if you can. Soooo much better drivability than a carb (over the long term). So my say would be to stick with the 6.0 but stay fuel infected.
Thanks for the ideas. From what I see i think that i'm going to go get that 6 liter and start with that. To be Honest I wasn't thinking about putting on fuel injection, but what would that take? I'm open to trying different things. Can i use the stock system and it just plugs in the Accel or edelbrock computer? i don't have any clue about fuel injection. But one for sure thing is the 6 liter sounds to be a good starting point. And my funds are not very large, but whose are?
Steve the truck was right in the water, but it didn't go in running it was shut off. They were trying to pull up some old equipment that was parked on the embankment and they used the truck as a place to hook the come-along to. It was wet (Blah blah blah) so the truck slid down the embankment and right in to the water. so i'm not to worried about the motor. Pull it apart and check everything and fix what is needed. The truck only had 85,000 KM so not to high.
Thanks again
you said 72 chevelle correct?
whats wrong with a 70's big block? isn't that whats its supposed to have? I say scrap both those ideas and put a real motor in it. the only computor part you will need is a 6AL box and I bet you can easily find a double pumper Holley for it. and by the way, 500+ horsepower is easily obtainable.
You can use the stock engine, od trans, and efi. The stock efi system can be used with a special wiring harness. The transmission also needs to be used with the stock computer. So by the time you spend money on aftermarket computers for the engine and transmission it will cost more money.
I would not use a late model engine that has been under water. Even the edlebrock conversion kit uses the stock ignition coil that could be bad from the water. Check the prices for ignition coils because they are most likely more than the cost for the used engine.
Also the OD trans will require an aftermarket computer to control it. (1000.00). If you get the entire package (engine, trans, and computer) then it will cost less money in the long run. But buy a dry engine.
John, Are you getting the complete truck or just the engine? I still say stick with the fuel injected engine. With gas prices as high as they are the FI will get much better gas millage. Just the turn key and the engine is up and running is enough for me to stick with the FI set up. I know that some will say you can have that with a carb, yes you can but more than likely not 2 years later with no carb work. If you can get the complete truck by all means stay FI, if you cant get all computers and all wire harness. Good luck
Ok this is just me. I say get a carbed Big Block and a OD tranny, go with some fairly small gears, 3.08's or something.
Nothing against SBC love'em but a BBC... Besides this is a Chevelle a big heavy car.
Also because you asked I think this is specs on early 90's 454.
Compression Ratio 7.9 to 1 SAE Net Horsepower at RPM 230 @ 3600
SAE Net Torque (lb-ft) at RPM 385 @ 1600
7.4 Liter 255HP @ 4,000 rpm 405 Lb of torque @ 2400 rpm
I've had small block Chevy's since 1962 (except for one stock '67 396 SS Chevele) and soem have had great outpu. My last being a modified '70 LT! in a 70 Z-28. I now have a 468 inch BB in the same Z-28. The drawbacks: loud with 3-inch pipes; 7 mpg. On the plus side: loud sounds great and the powere is terrific. Do it right; go with the BB. If you don't your always gonna wish you did when that other guy pulls alongside with a car like yours but with a BB rumbling under the hood.
Well i went out to the junkyard and made the price with the guy of 600 for the complete truck (bumper to bumper). after that i scammed a different computer dropped the oil pulled the plugs checked the oil pressure, compression etc. and got it running in the yard ( could have drove it home) it runs like a top. the only thing that i hear is a little piston slap when it was cold, but that wont be a problem and had one bad coil. ( changed that out at the junkyard) so now that i have it at home i'll go into it a little deeper. going to be a shame to pull the motor out of the truck cause it is in really good condition. maybe part out what i have left and get some money back.
Now some other questions. I was looking at the gm website and found that the six liter is also in the ssr and that engine is making 390 horsepower and the one out of the truck makes 300 hp. What is the causing the difference in hp and can i make my truck motor put out 390? What would it take?
Just to let you know ronb i have enlisted the help of my dad who is a auto mechanic, but he is kinda out of the know cause he has been pushing paper running his own shop for about the last 10 years. hope we can figure it out.
Thanks for all the ideas
I know that a big block is a big block, but i want some thing that i can drive on a road trips and still turn some good numbers at the track. i saw a 2500 silverado at the track that was bone stock (other than a reprogram) making high 13 second runs consitently. I have a daily driver chevelle that has the 350 in it and it does good, but we can always do better. also have a 396 375hp put away, but it needs to be rebuilt. I cant afford to do that when i got the whole truck for only $600. and if i can push the 390 hp with it i will be happy.

On Winning the Gmail Lottery
June 14th, 2004 was a fateful day. It was the day I accepted an invite from my sister to Gmail, the still-in-beta email service from Google that changed the way that people think of web-based apps. I didn't know it then, but as I chose my username, I was signing myself up for a lifetime of cases of mistaken identity.
firstname.lastname@example.com. The highly coveted first/last name combo. Super-easy to remember and to send to other people. I'd feel weird posting it here, but it's easy to guess if you know my name.
In fact, it's a little too easy to guess my email address. So easy that many people seem to assume that their Hung Truong is me. I've been invited to speak at the Annual Vietnam Offshore Oil & Gas Conference. I've been included on email threads with the subject "Toilet partition" from Vietnamese building contractors. It took a really long time to convince them to remove me from that thread.
I've been mistaken for a university professor multiple times, mostly from clueless students asking for deadline extensions. I get an email every one or two days notifying me that funds have been added to my Bank of America Commercial Prepaid Card. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out a way to log into that account yet.
The list goes on and on. Overall, I don't really mind getting emails for other Hung Truongs. Honest mistakes happen, and it could be worse; my name could be James Smith.
You can read more stuff from me at my blog, which no one has mistaken for another Hung Truong's blog. Yet.

Young gang members in London are to be challenged over a growing culture of rape and violence against women.
In a ground-breaking project, the Safer London Foundation crime-fighting charity will question groups of boys aged from 12 to 15 about their attitudes to sex, girlfriends and relationships.
The charity says the number of gang rapes and assaults in London is hugely under-reported, while police estimate that street gangs are responsible for one in seven of all 3,800 rapes a year in the capital — more than 500.
The boys quizzed under the Empower scheme will include groups at an Islington school and a pupil referral unit who are seen as at risk of becoming involved in gang-related sexual violence.
Charity chief Rena Sodhi said young women are often too scared of reprisals to report attacks. "We have had cases of sisters of gang members being raped by rival gangs as retribution," she said. "But it is also not just a gang issue, young people generally seem to have less boundaries about casual sexual violence. It has become an accepted part of behaviour and relationships."
Ms Sodhi said a recent project by the charity in one London borough had 60 referrals in only four months of young women who had been raped or abused. Another pilot scheme by police in Hackney recorded 30 incidents of violence in teenage relationships.
In the new scheme funded by the charity and Islington council, trained youth workers will hold workshops with boys to challenge their views.
Ms Sodhi said: "We want to look at their behaviour and ask, is it really okay that if a girl comes over to their house that they are asking for it, and if there are two or three of their mates with them, then they are all up for it? This is the sort of attitude we are seeing all the time."
She said many of the young women the charity works with see violence in a relationship as normal. "They have confused views about what consent to sex means.
"We can help young women understand more about what they can and should expect from a relationship, and we must provide young men with the same opportunity."
Safer London Foundation youth ambassador Carl Konadu, 20, who helped to develop the scheme, said: "When I was younger I heard many stories of females being forced to have sex with sometimes five or six friends, even though one of them was supposed to be her boyfriend."
Organisers hope the scheme will be rolled out across London to boroughs identified with gang issues.

Ferals are very same bees as tame bees. Just escaped to nature. Freal bees have not special powers.
Finski, I may not be an biologist or entomologist but I have made my living not from bees but from observation of everything around me. As a professional trapper I took to heart an old timer's advise to "let the animal tell you where it wants to be caught". This power of observation is very highly developed for me and I will swear on a stack of bibles that here in the southeast we have a type of honeybee that has distinct behavioral traits that are different than the honeybee I became familiar with years ago as a keeper of "standard commercial italian" honeybees. I cannot show you the DNA to prove my thinking but many of these bees that I am cutting out of folks walls and trapping out of trees are definitely different than what I can buy from the package and queen operators. It's the little things that singly would mean nothing but when you add it up shows a distinct trend of difference. It is a repeatable occurance that has me convinced that our "feral stock" bees of unknown origins are not the same as our "tame" bees of known origins.Past this point I can only offer conjecture and opinions as to the whys and wherefores of how this has occurred. Please review all of my posts on this subject and you will see that I am always very careful to qualify my statements on the matter as I am by no means a bee expert just a beek that watches my bees very closely and as all things beekeeping are local I can only speak to my locality. I would assume that is the case in Finland as well and maybe you are not seeing the same as I am in your locality, which would stand to reason as I doubt your bees have been subject to the same mass migrations of populations of both honeybee subspecies and human nationalities. Again this is just conjecture on my part. So in your locality you may indeed be correct that your ferals are indeed the same as your tame stock.Now in defense of "my" ferals. These are not the magic bullet or superbee we beeks have been so questionably been trying to develop over the centuries, they are a bee just like any other but with certain distinctions. Mainly they seem to be uniquely adapted to their locality in regards to seasonal pressures, in this they excell, and I and many others are seeing they also have some resistance to the various pestilences that have decimated our bees over the past thirty years. It is this latter trait that has really caught fire among us beeks. Are they the final answer? Absolutely not as there will never be a perfect answer but they do live on in spite of colony after colony dying all around them and that alone is worth listening to. In many ways they are actually inferior to the commercial strains of honeybees available. For instance mine tend to be runny on the comb, they tend to not put up as much of a surplus as pure production strains, propolis production tends to the heavier side than standard italian stock but not as excessive as carnis or caucasians, the queens while good layers do not lay nonstop irregardless of season which is a less desirable trait for commercial operations, temperment while usually very calm can be variable and overall there tends to be slightly more variability from colony to colony.Probably the only real thing I can positively attest to is that they live as I do not treat my bees for mites, parasites or disease and other than cutouts failing to thrive or robbing I have yet to have a deadout in the last several years. How and why I do not know as I do not do mite drops, sugar shakes or any other testing methodology I just keep bees that live. If anyone wants to come look at my bees they are more than welcome as I am slightly proud of them and if anyone can show me proof positive of why they live I would be glad of it.
Well, Bjorn, please elaborate on why you agree. No right or wrong just what do you see in your area that leads you to believe that the bees found outside of manged apiaries in your area are no different than the manged bees.
As some who may respond do raise and sell "commercial stock" bees I do not care to hear any arguements for better or worse than just are you seeing differences and if so what. I myself have made the case that my feral stock is in some ways worse than commercial stock and in others better. As in all things it's a trade off and each of us have to pick and choose what we are willing to compromise on.
It may also be true that our ferals have changed over the years as well.
400 lb. honey from one hive isn't telling the type of bee, it is telling the forage area,

General Radiator320 West 83rd Street Chicago IL 60602, Select State/Province USA
General Radiator National Porges Radiator Jim Porges Scam, poor quality, used products, illegally over charged my credit card Chicago Illinois
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
We ordered a radiator core from this company via phone. There was no option to order it on the website. While ordering it I specifically asked if they accepted returns, Dan (a worker at General Radiator) said "Yes of course". There is no return policy listed on the web site, that's why I had asked. I was told the total amount due including shipping was $719.95, I paid with my credit card.
Upon receiving the item, right away I noticed it was not what I wanted. Beyond the fact that the quality of the item was extremely poor, the holes didn't even line up correctly. I refuse to put a piece of junk into a very expensive dump truck that I have to use in my business. Anyone who is a small business owner I'm sure can relate. I also took the item to a local radiator specialist and he agreed that this core would ruin my truck. I have a notarized letter attesting to that.
I called General Radiator that day to let them know I would be returning the item and wanted a refund. Once again I spoke with Dan, who was incredibly rude and ignorant. He refused my request for a return, he said the best he could do is give me a store credit. I have no use for a store credit from a store that has at best low quality hack merchandise.
That being said, I pulled the receipt out to see if there was any return policy stated on it, and to my surprise, not only was there NO return policy listed anywhere, but there was also NO price on the receipt! This was a huge red flag for me. I was given the run around by this company for a week and then decided to contact my credit card company to dispute the charge. At this point I'm under the impression that it was a $719 charge. Guess again, General Radiator has ILLEGALY over charged my card by $150!!!
I have filed complaints with my local office of consumer affairs, I have submitted the claim to my credit card company, and I am taking this to small claims court. My rep from the Attorney General's office of consumer affairs is disgusted with how they have treated her. They screen calls, they make up fake names, they give times to call back and no one answers. The owner of this company is named James Porges, regardless of what "Dan" or "Mike" may tell you.
I caution you do not EVER do business with these people it is a nightmare. I am seeing this through till the very end and I will be getting my money back and then some. These people are rude, unprofessional and deceitful.

Police in Paris reportedly arrested a man on suspicion that he participated in attacking a Jewish man outside a synagogue.
The suspect was apprehended shortly after he and the other three attackers, who escaped, allegedly attacked the 47-year-old Jew on Dec. 20 as the victim was coming out of a synagogue in the French capital's 19th Arrondissement, the French daily Le Parisian reported.
The officers were stationed outside the synagogue because of frequent attacks on Jewish institutions and individuals in and around Paris.
The culprits continued to hit the man as he was on the ground, the report said. It quoted a source as saying that it was not certain that the attack was anti-Semitic in nature but that this was being investigated.

Residents of west Columbia neighborhoods stepping up to stop crime
Neighbors say they believe teens are responsible for string of robberies and car break-ins
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Residents of the Georgetown subdivision in West Columbia are stepping up their neighborhood crime watch after multiple robberies and car break-ins.
"We're tired of it, " said resident William Howard. "So now we're hitting the streets as neighbors. We're taking turns. We're staying up as late as we possibly can and trying to take control of this."
Howard said his house was broken into Labor Day weekend and many items, including his gun, were stolen.
Now Howard is leading the neighborhood watch program.
There were robberies and an attempted car theft at Grant Lane and Teakwood Court in July.
A 10-year-old was robbed at gun point over a dirt bike Saturday near the Georgetown subdivision. Police are still looking for the 15-year-old responsible for that incident.
Residents said there have been multiple robberies and car break-ins in the area, especially over the last year.
"We had a car stolen a year ago," said on resident in the West Cliff subdivision. "The same night, another car was stolen in an adjoining neighborhood."
West Columbia residents who talked to ABC 17 News Sunday said Saturday's incident was the final straw.
"It just feels like every single day you're going to wake up to another neighbor, you know, finding their car broken into or something is missing," one resident told ABC 17 News.
Some neighbors wanted to remain anonymous for fear of being targeted again.
ABC 17 News asked neighbors why they are stepping up the neighborhood watch and they said it's because they don't see enough police presence.
"Police presence during the day, yeah," Howard said. "But what about at night? We need them to step up tremendously at night."
A Facebook page was created for Georgetown residents to warn each other about break-ins and other issues.
Howard said he hopes if the neighborhoods unite, they will be able to stop the problems that have hit time and again in west Columbia neighborhoods.

Copperhead Parent Review
"Copperhead" is a powerful look at the price one man and his family pays to exercise their right for conscientious decent, and the high cost that comes on the home front.
Movie Review
Not one shot is fired in the Civil War movie Copperhead. Not one cannon ball explodes. Not one bloody war injury is shown. But that doesn't mean a fierce battle isn't brewing in an upstate New York town where the lines of demarcation are drawn as decisively as they are on the frontline.
NEW: Listen to our Parent Previews Podcast and take control of media and technology in your family!
In this tiny community, Abner Beech (Billy Campbell) is an anomaly—a Democrat who strongly opposes Lincoln and the war efforts to free the slaves. He disagrees with the call for young men and boys to march off to fight. But his opinions don't sit well with his staunchly Republican neighbors who begin to shun him, suddenly questioning the quality of his milk and lumber products and initially refusing to let him cast his vote in an election. Even the local minister (Brian Downey) berates Abner's opinion from the pulpit.
However the feud that divides the nation becomes even more personal for Abner when his son Jeff (Casey Thomas Brown) enlists to fight for the North. The young man leaves behind his family and his girl (Lucy Boynton), the daughter of a scripture-thumping widower (Angus Macfadyen) who is as opposed to Jeff and Esther's friendship as Abner is. But Jeff's decision to fight for Republican ideals doesn't appease the neighbors who gather outside of Abner's house, shouting threats and building a blazing fire to light their torches from. Unfortunately as their passions rise to a fevered pitch, the war begins to exact a toll even among the members of this tiny town who are far from the warfront.
Based on the novel by Harold Frederic, Copperhead offers a viewpoint of the war that differs from both Lincoln and the classic Gone With the Wind. Independent filmmaker Ronald Maxwell, who directed Gettysburg and Gods and Generals, peels open a story that gets to the very heart of the war that torn apart families, communities and the nation.
While the film depicts some maimed soldiers returning home, a fistfight at an election poll and a huge fire that destroys a home, a suicide may be the most unsettling scene of violence. Brief profanities and a couple of scenes of drinking are also shown along with the rising tensions among neighbors. However for teens and adults, Copperhead is a powerful, though slow moving, look at the price one man and his family pays to exercise their right for conscientious decent, and the high cost that comes on the home front.
Release Date: 28 June 2013 (Limited)Directed by Ronald F. Maxwell. Starring François Arnaud, Billy Campbell, Angus Macfadyen, Peter Fonda. Running time: 120 minutes. Theatrical release June 28, 2013. Updated May 27, 2016

Copperhead Parents Guide
One young soldier says that the war you read about in the newspaper isn't the same as the real war. How can the media influence the way people see the conflict? How might newspaper (or TV) reports be used to either promote or hamper war efforts? How can those reports alter the way the public perceives returning soldiers?
How are religious people depicted in this movie? How does this portrayal promote stereotypes that may not be true?
Why does Abner refer to war as a fever? Can people lose a sense of reason when their passions become inflamed? How do the townsfolk respond to Abner? What does he do to provoke the situation?
This movie is based on the novel Copperhead by Harold Frederic, who lived through the conflict as a small child.

Good lord that's a lot of torque. I was told years and years ago 75 lbs. But that wasn't from any specific spec. I have gotten so used to it I just use a breaker bar the same length as my torque...

I drove a 12 Galopagos Lux TDi today that the dealer just got two days ago and it had the backup camera. The sticker said PDC.
Saw and drove one today. Bright sunlight. Way cool color.
When you hit the brakes it will want to push up but I don't think it makes a difference in what way it goes. I'd put it nuts down for a cleaner look.
We just have the one kid and a 5 lb dog and we get by with an 04 Jetta wagon TDi. However I can't sit in the right seat with Anna behind me as there is no room for her feet as she sits in her Recaro...
Thanks, that kept me bizy for a while.
Yea, gonna have to see one in the flesh.

It has nothing to do with "tree huggers", it has all to do with the safety ninnys. Tree Huggers are concerned for the environment. Safety Ninnys are the ones that make make decisions for others.
Ah ha! I didn't notice. BMW's do it when in reverse and I ass u med it would be the same.
Thanks for the info. I was thinking that was a big thing for a 60K car to be missing.
The 12 exec I test drove did not. Could I have missed it? Don't think so.
Do you also realize that an XC90 is not a VW? :P. I say that in sarcastic font.
Kinda agravating considering the price of a new Touareg. Don't want an Audi or a Volvo and the X is just silly.
For a car that's pushing 60k I wish vw would get their act together and have a statement and a plan in effect. They just don't give me a warm an fuzzy feeling buying something that expensive from...

I've just spent two days in hell. For reasons I know not, I began to get Error 1317 when trying to print PDF files with Acrobat 6 (plus latest updates). I uninstalled the software in a misguided hope that this would help -- but reinstalling only produced the same error.
I search via Google, and apparently quite a few people have encountered this error.

Follow all the advice, except the last step of "running Office Setup).
Hope this saves someone the two days I wasted fooling around trying to fix the problem.

Perfect location ! Very beautiful apartment big and high ceiling. Nice beds, good kitchen and very nice with two bathrooms!
I'd choose this apartment only then, if I am 1) late with the reservation and 2) plan to stay just for one night. The apartment is functional, clean. But without any soul. If you'd expect to feel there like in a 2nd home, you won't get it there.
It was a wonderful experience to be there in Pragu and to stay in the Upper Rooms with the view to the River. Your hospitality is amazing and arrangements were great. keep it on. If myself and my friends get a chance again to visit prague, we will be staying there surely. Thanks most sincerly for the accomodations.
sincerly Vincent Moolan
We had a great stay in this very big apartment. It is situated in the centre, everything (supermarket, sight-seeing, restaurants) is in walking distance. The building is in a busy street so there is some noise from traffic and people, especilally in the summer when the windows are open. Friendly host, highly recommended.
Big and tidy appartment in the centre of Prague. Three bathrooms were a plus but some of the fixtures were lose. The kitchen has everything you need when staying only for a night or two but is a bit small for longer stays.
Another plus was the luggage storage at the Hotel after checking out.
As we left the appartment cleaning staff was there before 11am and as our vehicle was stuck in traffic we were asked to wait with all of our luggage on the street. Not the best customer service.
The Hotel staff was helpful but not the friendliest.
Nice appartment, Staff polite and very efficient if you have any need.
Missing some little thing like soap for the washing machine, filter for the coffee and not a lot of paper towel... But it was clean and well located. Grocery at 5-10min of walk, metro at 2 min walk, restaurant near. I would recommend it
Very nice and clean appartment. Very centrally located. No parking possibilities at appartment but at the place where the key has to be fetched parking is for free. Any time again.
We rented this apartment for a 4 days' stay over Easter 2014. We were 14 people in our group (8 adults, 6 children) and the 4 spacious bedrooms in this apartment were more than adequate. The kitchen is a nice size too. We found quite a few chairs broken though. However, there were just sufficient chairs for us all 14. This apartment is located very conviniently for the centre of Prague - there is just a 10 min. walk and you are near the Charles Bridge.
Be aware if you require a parking space for your car that you have to booke it in advance, as there are limited spaces connected with these apartments. We left it too late. But fortunately found car spaces (for all our 3 cars) in a nearby car park basement (reasonable prices) and just 5 min. walk away.
All in all a very pleasurable stay in a comfortable albeit a bit run down apartment. Prague is a wonderful city. Well worth a second or third visit!
Good standard of accommodation. The flat was equipped with everything one needs for a short stay. A bit more noisy due the extensive construction of buildings in the immediate neighborhood.
Everything was fine. Appartment was nice near the centre. We had a good stay in Prague. I highly recommend Katarina as host.
