Will a 75 and before buick 350 be an exat mount in a 70 riv that had a 455? Because I have to weld in new frame mounts that were for the 455 orginally but I'm temporarily going to put in the 350.????
No, the 350 and 455 use different engine mounts AND different frame mounts... All Rivs (at least 67-7x) had 430's or 455's so there really isn't any bolt in frame mounts except maybe for a 350 lesabre from 68-72ish... You would have to weld the frame mounts in for the 350 so I just say wait until the 455 mounts are in.. Or buy this 70 Riv thats here for $900 !!!! Dan
Here in Sunny So Cal... Lemme know if you are seriously interested, the seller really wants to sell it ASAP... Has a bad fuel pump or a clogged line, otherwise the engine runs fine with gas poured in the carb... Dan
NOTE: I've bought 2 cars before that didn't run... got good deals on both of them because of it. Both owners said it was probally the fuel pump. Both were really just a stuck float valve in the carb. One I had to take it out and reinstall it, the other I was able to just tap it with the blunt end of a screw driver while cranking it over.
buy this 70 Riv thats hhheeerrreee for $900 !!!! :ball: Yes for that amount I WANT IT with the document attesting of the sale and the certificate of property from the previous owner. :beer The problem is not what I wrote previously, but with the following part: Do you know a safe way to put that car inside a Ship crossing 2 oceans from SO Cal to South East of France (Marseille, where I currently live) even if the trip lasts 6 months. And doing that without being present to charge the car, without (or with few) damages to the Buick during the transport, and without tripling the global cost of that car. I really don't know how to do that. o No: I even don't know if I will stay a few days inside the States during the 6 months which come. :shock: :Comp: jcgtreize, a Riviera lover
