The biggest improvement we saw on our #6 roadster was some head work we commissioned. 302 heads are pretty rare here, (NZ) in fact not many people...
Have you not seen it? It's a very good looking body, but it's original. It's the kind of truck I just wouldn't be able to leave alone. I'd throw...
Cheers Robleticia. He had his eyes closed though!
Awesome! Any info on valve sizes? That '58 365 head is interesting. If that has, or can take the larger 390 valves, that would be the head to have...
I had a look at that pickemup myself. Did you see his black one in the shed? Let us know if you have any drama's getting it through Vinning....
Can i just bump this, i'm interested as well in using a set of 390 heads on my 331 (anyone got some? PM or email me) I have searched but I can't...
i just can't see anyone wanting to run such a setup :D [IMG]
On your website, you say "Basically a 390 is a bored out 331 and 390′s cant be bored out that far." Does this mean my 331 (or any) may take...
cool, that's what we wanted to know :). Figured it would be easier to leave my freshly built (& painted) trans intact, and turn down an old yoke.
Guys I'm just assembling a fresh SP400 Nailhead trans, and the std TH400 yoke fits onto the spline, but is too large in O/D. We have found out...
OK, here's what I have found today. I've bought many engine kits from Don, and even I was confused. Don used to be at ERW, and he was the 'Mad...
i have a set of mounts here from a 364 & a 401, i can attest that at least the bolt holes to the block line up. I sure hope they're the same...
I've found a Clevite listing and the Rod bearings are the same for 364/401/400/455, but no listings on the mains. I suspect they are different....
bttt
Does anyone know if the 401 bearings are the same as the Buick Small Blocks (300/340/350). I'm certain I have seen a listing somewhere for...
sorry to bring up an old post, but does anyone have a copy of the original comparison. The webpage here has changed since the test was first...
I saw that on ebay not too long ago, i very much wanted to own it, and it wasn't expensive. I'm glad i didn't buy it, because i would never have...
Bump - The engines I've found are actually '63's - anyone know if the tailhousings on the different Dynaflows will interchange?
My '57 Buick has original 364 & Dynaflow. The Dynaflow needs a rebuild, and for that matter so does the 364. Question. Can I utilise a '62...
Without opening a can of worms, Here's the abridged version. If your toy is over 20years old, it does not need to be converted. Schweet! If it is...
I like it Rod Bods, and yes, this is a great post with a great attitude. I like the choice of engine, but yes if it were mine I would not have...
You guys Rock! ha ha, so who's got the stash of 270h heads? How about a complete 302? PBRmeASAP, I have a strong 270 in the Hot Rod, but there are...
I realise this is an old post, but I am interested in reviving it. I recently milled 100thou off a std 270 head. I am still using the standard...
In the Words of Austin Powers, "FOOK MI" Tony please put my name down, and be sure and pm me when you have $$ sorted. What time frame are you...
have your machinist lay that block on it's side, manifold face up. You'll notice the 3 intake ports are equi-spaced between the cylinders. Have...
Thanks, Double, yours too! Found the chassis # it was right wheer 40stude said, and yes, i had to apply three coats of wire brush, and one of...
Hey you good bastards seem to know a bit about the hydro. I have a '54 olds 98 (in pieces) and a '55 Cad, stock 331. The Cad has a mean ker-thunk...
You want a hand with something Stich? Oh, and cheers for Jumping me today.:eek::D
Glad you posted that C, I couldn't think of anything less offensive than Shorty, ha ha.:D
