  1. It was a 454 that he wanted in his chevelle. I gave him a 307 olds roller cam engine and trans and installed it for free. And he was disappointed and left . Would not even help me install the hood on his chevelle. Just yesterday I hooked the wrecker to the chevelle and drug it around back. The 454 is now residing in my OT 71 chev 3/4 It fit right in where the 402 was. Now the smaller little grandson In my avatar is ate up with the old car junk genes. he is my shadow watches everything I do and tries to help. Pretty smart for three already starting to know the wrench sizes and stuff.

    You better get a video of it running to share with me because I want to hear it !
    There's a guy with a 65 riv gasser that was going to do a 430 but for some reason he pulled the plug on it, maybe costs, I'd like to get your combo and cost to build to send to him, maybe respark that fire.

    Swade41 I had a 430 in the car for 22 plus years. Stock bottom end, ported heads with stage 1 valves, 490 lift cam, 850 carb, ta aluminum intake and a few oiling mods. Ran 11.70's with 3.73's in a 3500 lb. Stude. I'm traveling right now heading home with the re-rebuilt 455 but I will put up the recipe soon as I get a chance. This pic is with the 430.

    327---307!!!!! There's only 20 inches difference and it's bigger than a 283. I'm willing to forgive and forget how you've treated me in the past. Surely we can renegotiate this adoption deal?:)
     
  13. Drove up to the Kent Machinery Show. Walked the flea market 12 times.:confused: Bought a couple of things, tools, filter for my compressor. and an old life of Riley lunch box for a buck.:rolleyes: May go back Saturday, there will be more vendors.
    You never know what may show up. There was a nice set of 16" wires but he wanted too much $$. IMG_6070.JPG IMG_6069.JPG IMG_6071.JPG IMG_6074.JPG IMG_6075.JPG IMG_6076.JPG IMG_6073.JPG

  16. Yes We still have a Avery. I think the tractor pictured is probably a BF Avery.
