I am new to your group but not to Buicks, in the past i have restored, built or modified a 1954 Super, 1964 Wildcat and a 1969 GS. I just picked up a 1969 convertible skylark that needs lots of work (and parts), it currently has a small block chevy w/TH350 and no interior but it did come with a rebuilt (or so I am told) 455 w/TH400. I plan on removing the pan this week to verify the claim. It has been about ten years since my last Buick so I joined to see what is happening and available in this community.
Welcome aboard. This is THE place/website for Buick knowledge and camaraderie. Plenty to read , plenty of knowledgeable folks to answer your questions. All if not most, kinds of people welcome here, daily cruisers, weekend drag racers,and all kinds of Buicks, concourse restorations , survivors , and all out track cars. Jim/Rott Ps: read the "stickies" pertaining to oil clearances and oiling mods for the BBB . Might wanna check bearing clearances in that "new" 455. GL JIM Tapatalk User
