you know where to get 'em.

alternatively, crate your current motor and trans for resto purposes and put whatever you want in it for hot dogging around.

yeah, i figured that was a bit of overkill. but you know what Deep...

yer durn tootin it's permitted! we've even got an 'Album' option under the 'Community' tag.

if you're going rip some "assphalt", does that mean you're using a Tomahawk block? :car:

the 300ci was only in production for 4 years ... and the first year ( 1964 ) was aluminum heads and intake. so, yeah, there's not much aftermarket support for it.

a - the Intake doesn't do...

well, since you're modding the car anyways, is there a possibility that you could fit a full racing fuel cell back there?

then you could mount anything you wanted.
...

ah, the boat tail!

it looks like the Danish, German and Netherlands Buick clubs are still kicking.

and, of course, www.RivOwners.org

hidey ho, neighbor

there's no like year FI conversion for the big body Chevrolets from 1968?

the Riv probably used the same or very similar fuel tank.

have you asked over at www.RivOwners.org?

one would think.

all of the attachment and mounting points should be pretty much the same between the Buick 340 and 350.


the 1967 Chassis Manual will cover everything OEM on your car:...

He taped two "lengthening pieces" (don't know the right expression) from a ratchet together and worked blind.


"extension bar" in the States. the Brits probably have some goofy terminology i...

most of the issues you will have will arise because of the Olds conversion, as the only short block difference between a Buick 350ci and 340ci is the bore size.

however, the valve order on a 350...

Buick Wildcat logo from the mid-60s:

Engine number is 1849046


that looks like a casting number of some part, whether the block or intake or something. you usually have to pull the valve cover off to find the head casting numbers....

do you have a specific cylinder not firing?

have you replaced the fuel filter?

you might also want to run a new ( larger ) fuel line all the way from the tank up front.
...

oh, and i do quite like that paint job.

but, obviously, at that point you're no longer concerned about "restoring".

how are you going to actuate it?

the OEM SP has a plug on the side of the case and wiring inside the case to convey the position signal to the stator.

do you think you're up to fabbing...

guten tag, Alex.

all variants of the Le Sabre should have had a 401ci in 1963.

we don't have a Chassis Manual for 63, but we do have them for 1960 and 66. you should be able to figure out...

if you're that fixated on the SP, an ST-400 ( mid-60s SP variant of the TH-400 ) will also bolt up to your block. you'll probably have to shorten the driveshaft.

the 200r4 is your go-to choice if...

yes, Buick 350s and 225s powered some Kaiser Jeeps back around 1970. AMC wasn't so keen on having a GM power plant.

bravo! good job bringing her back.

did you check the water pump? the front cover is aluminum and sometimes there is electrolysis that eats up the pump housing.

i assume you know already that...

Fun Fact: The timing cover on my 1982 El Camino Conquista V6, fits on my 1967 California 340 GS V8!
(It's a Buick 231 under the hood, OEM)


don't go feeling too froggy. at least, not until...

yes, ALL California GS cars are built on a v6 VIN and a post roof ( not hard top ) model, which is then optioned up to a v8 and a special California GS trim package.

there are even some extremely...

it's not unusual for the chassis plate to have a different designation for the factory code than is used in the VIN. two letter plant codes are typical on the plate, especially prior to the 1980s.

there are, or were, two stampings on the block that would designate year.

the two letter engine code for a 1970 Electra should have been "SF" and indicates the 370hp variant, which was the highest...
