322 Nailhead Re-Build Parts?

[jonnycash1]

Ok fellas, we're working on our first Buick- a 55' Super Riviera. I am in the process of tearing down the 322 for a complete rebuild. Where / who should I consult on all of the hard parts such as, bearings, rings, gaskets, etc?

My local engine shop carries alot of stuff, but no old Buick stuff. I checked out Kanter Auto Products but they appear to be on the pricey side? I understand I may not have many options, what are they?

Any help from the Classic Buick Community would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks- Jon.

http://www.taperformance.com/ < you can d/l their catalog for free. don't try to view it online, it's a big enough pdf that Adobe often has problems if it can't work off of a local file.

search around here for telriv and Nail roller rockers.

I overhauled my 322 most of the parts came from tirrell machine in Texas very good pricing. I needed a cam as well I wanted more torque he hooked me up with an out fit in ma. I am very happy with what I purchased. If you can,t find them on the internet let me know.

My next change is to put a rack and pinion steering in. For better feel.

Terrill Machine in Texas is an exceptional supplier.
