1/2" is way too fast.
Congrats, post some pics!
Woah, didn't mean to start a war here guys. It was free, and has a chance of working out for me (rebuilt or otherwise), so yes, that's a score....
Wouldn't I need an adapter for an Edelbrock? I know the 1406 600cfm elec. choke one I was looking at does.
I need a new carb for my 322 nailhead. A friend of my had this in storage. He said it was off a 327. I decoded the numbers and found that it was...
You're car has a firewall mounted master cylinder, so it should be fairly easy to adapt a later model master and booster in the same location....
Thanks for the tip, I'll try that as soon as it warms up in a couple days. As for the timing, I checked it with a gun a little while back and it...
Hi All, I'm having trouble getting my Buick to fire. I know my carb is a bit wacky, but it has always started with some effort. The choke is...
He sure is. I gave him a call and ended up ordering a pair of 17" steelpacks. I'll post up a video once I have them welded in.
Great looking car. I've got the same model. Here's a pic of mine: [IMG]
I'd be interested in some rebuild tips. Mine just started leaking out of the bottom, right around where the pitman arm connects to the box.
I'm about to place my order and I can't decide which to get for my dual exhaust '56 Buick 322. I'm looking for the deep growl that you get with...
Hi, My Buick has a real strong smell coming from the exhaust. I have to leave the garage open after parking the car, otherwise it's stinks the...
Here are pics of the actual car: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]
There's no way you only got $1400 for that car in that condition. The one I'm looking at is almost identical.
It's a 2 door post, not hard top. Also, apparently the chrome is near perfect. The color is still there, but the paint is flat. I'll get some...
I'm looking into buying a '54 Firedome. The car: '54 Desoto Firedome 2 door 276 HEMI 69k OG miles Interior was redone 2 years ago (but it looks...
Thanks for the pics.

This is exactly what's happening on the front. The damn thing looks like it's about to cut off the valve stem after driving. I just got back...
It's on both front and rear, but probably a bit worse in the front. Yes, I'm running radials on original wheels.
I'm running 52 Roadmaster caps on my 56 Century. For some reason they don't stay tight against the rim. After every drive I have to push them...
I'm around 400, north of the 401. Good to know you guys are around... we need to cruise.
Man, you guys are in Toronto too... Where are you hiding out??
This is regarding my 1956 Buick manual, single circuit, 4-drum braking system. I took apart all the brake parts at each corner, cleaned off all...
Sorry for the lack of updates. I decided to repack my front bearings as they were making strange noises. Once I had the drums off, I saw that...
I think I'm gonna buy a 53 now... missysdad1, please post pics of that master cylinder/brake pedal mount!
Yeah, I found the link to the shock application guide a little while ago. http://www.monroe.com/catalog/documents/08_MountingLengthSheet.pdf...
So I finally figured out my problem. I had the same upper and lower mounts on each side of the car but the bags inflated completely differently....
The top cups are cut straight.
