    The attach file area below says that max file size is 3.91 MB. Most photo viewing tools (either PC or mobile) have the option to edit photo size. Google Photos on my phone has this function in the menu at the bottom of the screen. Microsoft Photo Viewer on my PC also has a Resize option in the menu.

    There’s some confusion in these posts.

    For 1962 and 63, Olds offered the F85, F85 Deluxe, Cutlass, and Jetfire in the Y-body line and the Dynamic 88, Super 88, and Starfire in the B-body line.

    For 1964, Olds offered the F85, F85 Deluxe, Cutlass, and 442 in the A-body line and the Jetstar 88, Dynamic 88, Super 88, Jetstar I, and Starfire in the B-body line.

    The 1964 nomenclature has been confusing since the Jetstar 88 was a low-rent model with the 330 motor and small brakes, whereas the Jetstar I was a high-end model slotted just below the Starfire. And to confuse the issue even more, the naturally aspirated 330 used in the Jetstar 88 was called the “Jetfire” engine.

    All Jetfires came from the factory with a turbo. Many were replaced with a 4bbl setup when problems arose.

    Yes, you can swap the inner shaft in the column.

    Yes, the Tempest seat foams should work fine.

    No one sells new tanks for Y-body cars. Some folks have adapted the 62 Nova tank by having the filler neck relocated.

    Ames Performance sells Tempest bucket seat foam for the Y-body cars.
