I am looking for some guidance diagnosing my SP400 in my '66 Riviera. This is one which is described as "3-2 valve used on 1st jobs only". And, yes, I rebuilt it:(, and someone had been into it...
For better or worse, I would probably push it til it breaks:(
Then remove the head look at what is left of the bolt, heat the bolt with an oxy acetylene torch until it is as hot as I could get it,...
How about finding a shop that does thermal cleaning? Heating the block to 750 degrees, then putting it in a shot blaster.
Could a brake spring tool work?
Thanks, the VIN concerned me, but I wasn't sure. The car looks like a genuine GS400 down to the air cleaner. The only option which I am totally unfamiliar with is, it is a 3 spd. on the floor....
I just saw some pictures of a 67 "GS400" which is supposed to be an original 4spd and is an interesting car!
What can you tell me about the car from the plates?
Thanks
excuse my ignorance, but, what might the problem be with starting it before connecting the airbags. The only thing I can think of is there could be an open controlling starting without functional air...
In 1965 there is no reason to associate a metric speedometer with Canada. Canada did its metric thing in the late '70s. Until then it was inches, feet, miles, gallons (be it imperial gallons). Like...
Until the early 70s, Canada was not "Metric". Canadians enjoyed temperatures in Fahrenheit and drove cars for "miles" on Canadian highways in "miles per hour", just like in the U.S. It was very ...
How are you identifying it as a US style speedo?
It should be an easy swap, lot's of room, no harder than putting a SBC in any other car. Its pretty rare to find a nailhead in a '53 Special.
All the quads I have looked at have the jets in the bottom of the float bowl, so I don't know how there would be any problem getting any gas into them. I have never heard of priming with an...
Scott,
Did you know this is allmost all in the reference section, and not just for the '71.
I am haveing a hot idle problem with a Rochester on a 430. I am looking at the carb, and there is not the hot idle compensator mounted on the back of the carb like some Rochesters have. After doing...
Looks real good:thumbsup:
How much vaccum do you have? What cam did you put in?
The trim number is there http://www.teambuick.com/reference/years/57/57_trim_combination.html
I don't know what top acc is all about.
I don't think the arches are going to be available. If you want to repair the edges, a good body man should be able to fabricate them. Or you could find some new fenders from someone parting out a...

I don't know of any reason why it shouldn't be heli coiled. The challenge is doing it without taking off the heads!
I take it it's supposed to be 630 cranking amps. I am sure it will do your job.:thumbsup:
Those are rare! They were a poor design and they almost all crack to H.
This car on ebay has the correct wheel. click here
Being as you work on Subarus, you know that the problem is blowby and the engine needs a rebuild. The cheby suggestion doesn't make sense, because you would need a transmission too, and the cars...
Nice post! What makes you think its a Buick engine?
If your not sure, perhaps you should look in the Reference section...
