Hello, I am trying to find pictures of a 401 nailhead installed in a car. I am trying to put the motor back together after a garage put the motor in and did not complete the job. I need to know what tubes and lines go where. It would be nice if I could see the motor without the air cleaner on it so I can see where evey thing goes.OR Maybe some one can tell me where there is a book or Link that shows how to do it? I also need to know where the trans cooler lines go and how the are set in the car. I have a 1965 Wildcay with a 1966 motor which leads me to the next question are there many differences in the set up between the two years? Thank you all in advance for any help you can render,
A couple pics here: http://www.v8buick.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32535 You will need more, I'm sure!
Thanks Thanks Ted.......Yes you are right I will need more...but this is a great start......I need to know where the trans cooler lines run and a whole bunch more......I have been to junk yards and I can't seem to find a intact motor:rant: .......I have the Mag "CARS AND PARTS" The April edtion and they should a yard near me in Jersey that I am going to,I am getting all the little things but now I need to know where they hook up at and how to run them ............I WISH SOME ONE WOULD PUBLISH A BOOK OR MAG ON OUR CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!:Brow: I guess they just don't understand that Buick made some of the best cars! I have an old chilton book from when I was a kid but it does not break down the set up....it is for cars from 61 to 71 it is a general coverage book....... Thanks again Ted you started me in the right direction,
