Correct, the engine was completely rebuilt roughly 7,500 miles ago, new pistons, .40 over bore, double roller TC advanced 2 degrees, heads were checked for cracks and any warpage at Bills machine in...
I guess ill try the radiator chemical test first because its easier... I REALLY dont want to tear into the motor......If the head gasket ends up being bad it gives me a good reason to send the heads...
2 carter comp 600 cfm carbs, pertronix ignitor 2 ignition, Poston NH 600 cam, but 7 cranks on the motor with all 8 plugs out and only 100 PSI on cylinder 7.....The motor has been done since 1996,...
Hey guys, my 66 GS recently started missing almost to the point of not being able to drive it......I ran a compression test on all 8 and came up with 160PSI on cylinder 1, 190PSI on cylinder 2,...
I'd LOVE to take a walk through your shop and check out all the parts you have Tom......I'd probably be overwhelmed...:)..........What's the word on those revamped nail roller rockers?

nice find man....I have a perfect shape factory 65-66 Skylark GS 4 core radiator if you are looking....
I bought her........2,300.00 bucks........gave it the usual tune up......fuel pump, oil, wires, plugs, cap, rotor, carb rebuild.....new battery, anti freeze.......only a few cranks with some gas...
Came across a really clean super low mileage 1972 Buick Skylark GS 350 convertible......Car is red with white top and white interior.......I actually saw the car when I was a child and it's still...
I wish I could make power up around 6,500 Steve......6,000 seems to be her limit at this point.......and Tom...... I never even thought about modifying the column........If I could just put a larger...
I also want to keep it column shift.....I like the look and like the room it gives me with the 50/50 bench....Any suggestions? I realize this will more than likely put 3rd gear down by my knees but...
oh, and all of the BOP 10 bolts from 1964-1972 had bolt in axles......only cheby used the C clips
Im not too familiar with the buick 350 (i believe some of them can have oil pump issues).....As for power there is definite potential....My uncle (when I was 8 or 9 yrs old) had a green on green on...
Hey guys...... I'm trying to find a company that produces reverse shift pattern valve bodies for the switch pitch 400 turbo transmission in my Buick but I don't want it to be a manual valve body......
I'm not 100% sure about the 65 lark GS with the nail but I'm pretty sure the ones eelco used to produce before they went out of business were almost a direct bolt on for my 66 lark GS "nail"..
Sorry for the late reply guy's.....I haven't been on here much lately....I have a 1966 skylark GS with the 401 Nail in her....I'd be willing to try out your HEI......I know you were looking for...
I'm not sure if I still have it Steve...I'll look for it.........I might have tossed it under the seat..........How do I upload it on here when I find it?............I'm still in shock from how well...
Hey guys, hows it going? Well, I put a fuel shut off valve on the return (I placed it so its super easy to get to under the hood) Modified a fuel pressure gauge with 5/16 hose, a 14 gauge steel...
I'm assuming 7-10 PSI Texas John......now that you mention it I might splice the rubber line up front and install one....I dont have a fuel pressure gauge now....... but the car never seems to lack...
After doing a little research on fuel return lines I'm a little confused..........I could order the stock 1/4'' return from yr one but I read some forums where people gained fuel pressure/HP by...
Ok, yr one does show the return lines on their website......I feel like an idiot now...:)....but only for 67-72........The 67 1/4'' coupe return line should be the same right?......
Hey Guys.....I'm changing the full length steel fuel lines on my skylark and noticed that the fuel return line seems to be 1/4'' while the main line in 5/16''..........I ordered 2 of the 5/16'' lines...
Oh yeah, Tom, cranks her over better than the factory one did at all times; nice and quiet too.........AWESOME creation Tom........Your next upgrade could be some aluminum larger valve...
Hey guys, I just wanted to update you all on how much better the nail runs after putting the headers and Tom's mini starter on it..........I dont know if it's because I lost 40lbs over the winter or...
They called me back today and said they will reimburse me another $25.50 which I'm satisfied with...........It's half the shipping cost which I agreed to when I talked to Tim...
