    Where in NW Iowa? Have you looked for the code by driver side exhaust manifold? Put me in line.

    PM's sent, will try to find code by manifold, i'm not that familiar with code locations on buicks, more of a poncho fan:moonu:

    Is the t-400 a short shaft, or long shaft? If you're not sure, what car did this setup come out of?

    I'm in North west missouri, and definitely interested.

    Trans is a long shaft 400, came out of a fullsize 74-76 buick, not sure on exact year.

    came out of a fullsize 74-76 buick, not sure on exact year.

    Engine Code stamping or head casting # would be very helpful here. there's a big difference between the 1974 closed chamber head and the 75-76 opens.

    I still can't find the engine code stamping, is it under the a/c brackets or alt?
    I took the valve cover off and the number thats on the head is: 1246322

    Going by the chart at Gessler's site, those are 75-76 heads.
