I haven't been on here much since we have been moving into our new digs. I have also been working diligently on several new parts. I hope you like the following list. EELCO wire covers Buick nailhead EELCO valve covers Buick nailhead EElCO maltese lake caps NW Speed Bellhousing Nailhead to Chevy w/ flywheel NW Speed Bellhousing Olds/Caddy to Chevy NW Speed 6x2 Desoto Hemi NW SPeed 6x2 Caddy NW SPeed 2x4 Nailhead 401-425 I will post pics as they are done or you can check out the site. Sorry for the shameless plug but I really get excited about this stuff. The pic below is the wire covers straight from the mold
Yeah and I thought it's a bitchin motor. I already make the valley pan and will make valve covers at some point as well. I hope to do a 3x2 this year too.
How much are you going to ask for them? Whats the timeframe going to be, as I'm starting to build a motor now? Wow, that makes me really excited.
The buick adapter is for the 364, 401 and 425. Caddy v.c will sell for 169ish adapters with steel flywheels 550.00/ 350.00 without Caddy 6x2 300.00 will fit 3bolt carbs and Rochesters
Make some 5 on 5 spider caps the buick, olds, and caddy people would love you. I would also because you know the 59 would look good with them, then again what would'nt look good with spiders. I still want those skirts off ya but money is tight right now hopefully soon.

Peddro- you can't try to edit your posts- if you do, the astericks show up like you have there. See Ryans post about the old HAMB issues.
Very cool Marty, glad to see the new parts and that you survived the move. Keep up the great progress on all the new parts, I may just have to change directions on some of the plans for that Olds 394 motor of mine, or that Cadillac 390 motor, both of these are saddled with the not-so-desireable close-coupling hydramatic. A nice stick bellhousing with a new OD manual trans would be the best of all worlds.
The covers aren't on the site yet. I will put them on in the next week. We are going to offer them at 99.00pr.
mmm cadilllac parts... already have the finned valley pan cant wait for the intake and tranny adaptor
$#@%#$%#$!...figures..I get rid of the 364 and you got the goods now! Oh well, your taken care of my new powerplant....PICS TO COME. By the way, I just responded to a post regaurding new strombergs that you and I had discussed last week, I mentioned you were gonna be a vendor, you might check it out Marty
Well you can add me to the I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE CADDY STUFF. Here's some food for thought. Has anyone ever considered reproducing the brackets and pulleys to mount a VS 57 to the 331 365 and 390's. You can find the superchargers out there but the brackets seem to be made out of that rare metal Unobtainium
The caddy 6x2 is slated for March and the bellhousing in Feb. We will also have a hi-po caddy gasket kit.
See, now I've got a problem--I've got a 322 that needs complete building, and a complete un-stuck 364 that might be able to get by with a budget build. I've got an adapter for the 322 to run a Ford trans, and I've got the trans but also a Chevy 3spd OD, and column shifter from a '56 Chevy. So now I'm thinking that maybe, just maybe it'd be better to stab the 364 in the hole, rather than the 322. The hangup has always been the bellhousing and flywheel. So what are your prices on the bellhousings? (And do you have any plans on doing a 322-to-GM bellhousing?! That'd be handy, too) -Brad
Okay, you're first post said "With flywheel" and this one here says "with pilot bushings." So, is it "with flywheel," "with pilot bushings" or (pleasepleaseplease) "With both"? AND HOW CAN YOU NOT BE DOING ANYTHING FOR THE 322?!!!! There's gotta be at least....um...five or six of us who could really use a good 322 bellhousing. And flywheel. And pilot bushing. -Brad
I posted a price with the flywheel and without. 550.00 with flywheel and 249.00 without flywheel. Sorry for the confusion
What about the nailhead Eelco valve covers? Price? Pic? When you think they'll be ready? Clark (SoWhat)
