    Tim, sometimes it would be better to buy an untouched good running stocker.

    If the machine work on the one in the ad is bad, you have a $600 paperweight. Always buy assuming everything has to be done (or redone) unless the seller has a big name behind the machine work with documentation, and the seller is ready to open everything up for you to inspect.

    Devon, thanks I never thought of that. Yeah, a stocker would let me make all the decisions about it myself. maybe something like this?455 Buick But never knew a Buick 455 to come factory with a 2BBL

    I'd run from the first one.........I don't like the ad and the way it's worded.
    Yes, the 455 came with 2bbls as well

    How could all the machining be done. Doesn't he know the pistons need to be fit to the bore?
