[IhaveAcarSickness]

that gn is way cooler then that wagon IMO ..i got a 70 deuce ive been wanting to put this tpi moter in but im still building the gn ,cant get the priorities f...ed up witch by the way my turbo is on the way to reed

Come on !!! NH doesn't have enuff straight roads for a hot air car to get to 140/145 .. You had best have a good paying job because from the sound of things you will be goin threw more motors. Oh a "guesstimate is like a butt dyno"

ok I say fix the Buick.. I want to see it rip up at the drags against the WRXs and the Evo's

Alright so its settled. As soon as im done put my k10 together (hopefully this weekend) im pullin the gn in and takin the motor out and starting a rebuild. Nothing crazy probably just rebuilding the block, small cam, intake, and an intercooler! Atleast now ill be able to find my passenger side header leak thats been driving me crazy!

Get some #7 heads off an early 350 for that 403. That will wake it up.

Yes ive been doing my research and thats what everyone says, im on the hunt for some.

 

[IhaveAcarSickness]

That's an easy one its under your up pipe they all crack there right under your header tube by the front spark plug

 

[k10boy]

It sounds like its down in the back, not sire but ill find out

I have a set of #7 heads for an old project 350 that was going to go into the wife's old 72 Cutlass. That project is long gone and these heads are sitting somewhere in my storage.
