Is FRANTISEK allready inline? He really needs an good raceengine, he hasn't got a working engine right now and he's the only other Buick racebuddy I have down here in Europe. So I hope is will be racing next season'. :TU:
Frantisek is right after Bob from Ct. It would be crazy if this motor was going overseas, I just dropped off a 1965 421 Bonneville Wagon on the docks at Bayonne NJ for the Netherlands last weekend.
Crazy? As in good Crazy or just plain crazy for trying that LOL? :beers2: A bonneville wagon, mmm nice I will lookout for it! Who is it going to??? Greetz Robert
Good crazy, it was my buddies wagon so I am not exactly sure who bought it. The 455 would have definitely fit in the back though.
Pfff thats good news!:TU: Just curious how much complete is the engine. Does it come with the frontcover oil pump etc. Or is it complete minus the parts you mentioned before.
I keep mine fingers crossed ray: ! The brackets I have my self and mine RaceBuddy, OPA "SpeedyBuick" has ( I hope, still the pully's) :laugh: Frans
Is this still up for sale? If so Im interested and in line. Has the motor been Dynoed? Is that a solid or hyd cam? thanks, Dennis
The TA 510 cam is a Hydraulic cam, you won't have any/enough vacuum to power the Power brakes with this cam.
Herb, What gear and tire combo were you running? BTW nice deal on the engine wish I could spare the cash.
Thanks for the kind words Alan the gearset was 4.11 with a 29.5" tire. Bruno Jr was behind the wheel and I believe he said it was going through the traps at around 6000 rpm
I have a lot of definite maybe's right nowou: All kidding aside there are two serious people in line right now jaybird and Franz.
