You look like a young guy, I just thought I would give you a tip....If you need to roll your car around, just get an old broomstick or 2X4 and then a couple of longer bolts and put...

Hi,

Well, the first thing you have to decide is how much money do you want to put into your 'Power Project'. You cannot use '70 heads as the water jackets don't line up.

You're very welcome! Just to continue... since the car you are putting it in has the std gears in rear end then for sure you will be able to use any brackets and pulleys off of any full size...

It is an alternator...not a generator. I'm wondering why you may think they are not. The alternators in those years are physically the same size---they just have different amp ratings--a car with...

So, if I am to understand you correctly, you put a 1971 455 engine (from a non GS car) into your 1972 455 GS car. Well all of the brackets and pulleys will be the same except in a vehicle that has...

:waving: Did the shop do everything---like you took your Riv there and they removed/rebuilt/re-installed it? if so, I'd be making them fix all the problems to your satisfaction or take them to...

and dont forget to put the fan back to how it was, the original installer had it correct----the airflow is from the front of the car to and through the rad then towards engine. Light a cigarette...

I should say it is running warm.....water passages in those heads DO NOT match the passages in the block---I'm surprised that it isn't leaking!
Back to your question.....I don't understand your...
