I would say that's just an imprint from the head gasket
Thanks for the tips! I just ckecked the plugs and they are all white (running lean). The rockers look fine, but when I pulled the shafts off, there's grey oil gushing from the two centermost...
Just to give you an update, there's nothing happening. The pro porting guy withdrew from this project. Also the guy who's supposed to do the CAD work, has shitloads of more important jobs. But we'll...
Hi guys, I just purchased a beat-up 1967 Riviera. There's a severe shudder coming from the drivetrain. I have understood the ST-400 is a pretty stout unit, so I'm suspecting the 2-piece driveshaft....
Hi guys, I just purchased a '67 Riviera, my dream car. The same year as myself :D
Hi guys, I just bought a '67 Riviera, and all I know about Buick engines is the straight-8. The 430 engine runs bad, and sounds like it's got a flat lobe. The car was just unloaded from a sea...
15 years ago when I built my car, I just walked into a local parts store and purchased a BCA1505 Throwout Bearing. I think it's a generic part that GM used all the way through the 70's.
No, we are not goin to inrease the amount of head bolts.
Yes, we are using pushrods. We are not going to overcomplicate things.
Just to be clear, this won't be a race head, but a street head, providing a wide torque band, off-idle to 5500 rpm. That's not to say we won't leave plenty of room for porting!
We can fit LS1 size...
I have found the right partners for this project. A man who worked previously as a researcher in a university, specialized in casting techniques. He now runs a machine shop, and is a hot rodder. He’s...
For your information, I have now started a project to design and produce a cast aluminum 16-port crossflow head for the 1936-52 320. It's going to cost a fortune to produce the first head, and...
Great! Thanks a lot
Does anyone have the 320 bore spacing dimensions at hand? I live in a metric world, and I'm lost with the fractions
I bought a set. The components are very high quality, and the set is complete with everything you need, even came with bolts and extra hims should you need to adust the position sideways. I...
Has anyone here used a Bendtsen's adapter to swap a TH700-R4 into a pre-dynaflow 40's Buick?
If yes, did you have to modify the transmission tunnel?
And did you fabricate something for the rear...
Which model Roadmaster is this - 4D, 2D or a convertible?
I'm using Red Line 10W40 Motor Oil. It's got 1200 ppm zinc (versus 600-800 ppm of today's oils in general). All Red Line motor oils have about 1200 ppm, except for the new Euro-Spec oils which only...
Yes, the aftermarket lifters are soft like butter, not even heat treated. :angry:
I'm running a 1.2 mm gap, but then again I have LS7 coil packs
I'm running NGK XR5 in my 320
Gerry Duttweiler makes those lifter covers
I kept my 6V starter and sourced a 12V solenoid from a newer Buick
Randy, any 320 head will work.
Not exactly on the topic, but I'm putting flat top forged pistons, made by JE, into my 320. While overboring to 350 cid, shaving 5 mm off the head, and using a 1 mm copper gasket (SCE), i end up at...
