Heres a vid link of it running today , Still lots to do especially clean out the inside . Also sad to say i found out that it has a bad main bearing so out it comes . Note to self when you rebuild top half and bottom half is sitting there do it also ....DAH... enjoy. Love the sound of the cam. http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=56428387
sounds cool. How do you say in spanish, cut the down turns down by 80% ou: sucks about the main bearing
Glad to see you got your car running, i sure do love it when you sell someone extra parts and they make good use for them..Good luck..that thing sounds mean.. what was your 1/4 time, also setup... got hp and torque numbers.. have you tried running an x pipe and tailpipes.. it gave me allot of low end torque after i put the new exhaust...it will leave you speachless in my opinion..
What cam is in it?Sounds good,I have a '79 El Camino with the original 305 sbc making rod noises,looks like plenty of room for the Buick mill.Hope that you get it going soon,cool car.
That almost makes me wanna' trade, I am more of a B-O-P guy, but, I have this: with this in it: Oh, and the best part: I haven't taken it to the drags yet, I added a 3.42 posi from an S-10, it had a 2.73 in it. But, I am thinkin' the old rat motor will put the poor stock V-6 Saginaw four gear out all over the drag strip. :TU: By the way, what cam did you use? I got a '78 Skylark with a 455(stone stock '70) I was thinking about the 107 "Window Rattling Lope" cam for it.
I use postons GS113 cam ,rhodes lifters, no wiggle retainers and double row springs. Glad ya like it , i love the sound of it when im at a stop light and it wants to push the car forward on the lobes lol.
