    Herb,

    I guess I'll step aside to see if anyone else needs it more than I do. I still want it, but don't have a car ready for a motor like that, and hate to buy it and let it sit around for a few years until the car is ready. It was great talking to you, and when I'm ready I will most definitely consult with you before I build something. :TU:

    It's a 464 with a modified front cover to accept the scavenger oil system, the pan is a custom finishline piece that is sumped and baffled.

    Herb, I'm on it. Thanks for your time on the phone today. I'll have an answer in just a few days, yea or nay. I suspect you will be digging out and waiting for power to be restored until Monday anyway! I hope you get through the storm OK. Jim Pflepsen; Machinefarmer

    Just waiting to hear back from Jim and then Jay is up, possibly breaking up the motor after that.

    Looks like jaybird wants to can the tuna, or at the very least keep him out of the 16

    I plotted it out on graph paper. Really flat torque curve. What are the cam specs or model?

    I'll spray the thing if I have to! Really would hate to drive over the crank though.......... Do you have a flow sheet for the heads???? Put me in line as well.

    I hope Jim aka Machinefarmer is ok. I have been unable to get in touch with him via the board or phone. I will give him until this afternoon to reply and then I will move down the list.

    Im more interested in the topend.They would work great on the 523 that i got from John.And i would be doing the Buick community a favor, By not letting Tuna getting a hold of them.He cleaned up in the 16 last year.If he gets these heads he might be unstoppable.Maybe we can work something out.PM sent.
