Skylark... so which is the engine in the pic? It looks like an olds.

Justin... idk when ill finish the mod... due to lack of tools needed, I'm doing it in my off time at work. Whether its finished or not,, ill reveal it Monday.

 

Brickyard Spoiler?

 

good evening all. hope the night is going good for everyone.

I rode my bike today...didnt beat the rain and had to ride 5 miles in the pouring rain

 

Justin, i love the intrigue, way nice looking car. does it have a leather interior? buckes / console? seems like most newer oldsmobiles i've seen have all the nice stuff like that.
as for the monte, i've never really thought of selling it, but if i did i think it would have to go to someone on here. i'd wanna be sure it found a good home

the 401 was a REALLY good buy, scince everything to rebuild one runs in around $2,000!

augi, the baby puke green engine in the pic is the 401 buick, less the carb and exaust manifolds. easy way to tell is that on pre- '67 buick V8's and V6's the valve cover's stand straight up, instead of angled like most other V8's

funny thing is, the 3.8 we all know and love today was originally based off of the 3.8 buick engine. the 3.8 found in the '80's buicks was based off of the '65 "fireball" nailhead V6 design

 

Evening all, sitting at my buddies house, I,m cat sitting so hangin out on his couch watching top gear =], got a new phone today cost me $75. HTC EVO 4G SHIFT so far I'm loving it

Ryan, it has heated leather, buckets, console traction contorol, 6 speaker cd all at the fun stuff just missing the percision control system and sunroof

 

No, its not a brickyard spoiler... I like the current spoiler I have.

Ryan, the reason I was thinking olds 403 is because of where the oil cap is and the shape of the valve covers. Alsoo, I thought buick engines were blue and olds were green...either way, its a nice find.

P.s. the mod is nearly complete... just have to heat and fix a couple of angles and put everything back together.
