    i have a few used items id like to part with. my 455 out of my regal (which i spun a bearing on) after about 800 miles. engine is a 455 out of a 71 centurion.


    big valve heads were cleaned,valve job done and had ta springs added. no port work done. $550 and will include the stock shafts and rockers. would prefer pickup because they would be expensive to ship

    ta cam and lifters 290-08h $140 + shipping
    rollmaster timing chain set with the 9 keyways. standard length $100
    + shipping
    i have not taken anything apart yet but i will this week. will make sure all of the lifters are marked to go back in order on the cam. everything located in cleveland oh.

    Does this mean the entire engine minus cam and lifters? A bit confusing.

    Idle Quality:

    Smooth Idle - just like stock
    Good Idle - mild lump, but doesnt impair driveability
    Moderate Idle - nice performance sound

    even though this cam is very lumpy it sounded really good and i never had any problems with having enough vacum for the breaks and i was able to have it idle at about 800 rpm. i would send you the cam and lifters for the 140 shipped. cam was $185 new and the lifters were another $79

    This sounds great but all I have is a bone stock 67 GS400 do you think this set up might be a little more than my set up can handle? If you think it will work then I'm in, let me know.
    Thanks

    pete i returned you pm, i could be wrong about what i sent you but i think the stock springs are gonna struggle. i would hate to see a valve hit a piston.
