..................................... I have a 455!

I also have a BOP cased 350 turbo trans - newly rebuilt!


but the 455 is a Buick, not an Olds. :whistle:

bored .060, port and polished heads, huge cam... I really need to put that in something! :headbang:

Will work on a PM shortly.

However... head gaskets really aren't that difficult of a job. So you spend $100 and 4-6 hours, that's really not much to get it up and going soon. Then if you want a 350 later you have a running/sellable 305.

I've never "built" a 305, so as to what cam you would want to throw in there, I'm not 100% certain. I know an inexpensive upgrade to the 350 is the "RV" cam, but I'm not sure if that would be a good upgrade for a 305. The RV cam is designed for more lower end torque for pulling... an RV. I have to stop by Port's machine shop this morning, so I'll ask them.

I'll also work on a PM.
