This is a very good read to back up Larry70gs post. This gives me a way better understanding on total timing and why manifold vacuum can help a guy out! Looking forward to trying this in my car

Bob,
Yea not looking to do any track runs except maybe when they have the yearly car show there they let you do a few runs if a guy wanted to. I just like the idea of possibly running aluminum heads and intake for a bit more ponies and also lighting up the front end. I suppose now that I think...
Thanks for the info Larry! Does anyone have a set of edelbrocks on their buick that could post a picture so I could see how they look on the motor ?
And maybe someone has some TA’s on their Buick they could share a picture of two?

Ok guys I did compression dry and wet test on my 430. Cylinders 5-7 have bad rings from what im seeing on my tests. Cylinder 6 seems to have a leaking valve in the head from doing a leak down test.
Now that i pulled the motor I’ m going to go ahead and do the oiling mods to the block. After oil...
Hey guys I have found unfortunately after solving my ignition issues that my 430 bored .30 over has massive blow by. Going to strip down and hope a new set a ring will work better. Not sure what the guy did that “ rebuilt” my motor did but not too happy. But on the other hand if the engine is...
Got the ignition issue figured out but my breather is still puking oil…
I took the pcv valve out and gave it a shake and heard the ball moving around so its not stuck…

Ok guys I got a new pertronix ignitor 2 that is a bit more reliable sense it has the magnetic sleeve and senses reverse polarity. Also put a new coil per recommendations from pertronix and put the flame thrower two with 0.6 ohms resistance. Double checked my timing and set at 8 degrees advance...
Well i was unsure if that was the pcv valve on back of intake. I should have worded it differently.
The pcv valve is routed back to the base of the fuel injection vacuum port.
