Yep, I saw that one but was worried with it being a 462 now that it would no longer be stock. I had him send me pictures and it also has headers so I need to do some more research and make sure that is legal for that car. I am kind of new to these restricted classes so I want to make sure I don't get into something that won't fit the class.

Getting started in class racing can be daunting....I'd seriously suggest going to the Indy Divisional race next month (you're in Wisconsin ....right?) and talking to class racers there. There will be some Buick runners there who could also steer you in the right direction. If you haven't poured over a rulebook and classification guide for the combos you're interested in then do that research ahead of time as well.
Here's the guide for a 72 Buick...you'll notice you need to know exactly what combo you're dealing with. http://www.nhra.net/tech_specs/class...es/1972BUI.xls |

That paticular car is my old car, send me a PM and I'll fill you in on what I know

Re: Wanted 1970 - 72 Buick 455
I think I might head over to the race in Indy at the end of the month and check things out. I went over the rules like you said and it probably would be best to check things out just to make sure how I think everything works is actually how it is.

Hi Jeremy
Are you still looking? we have a stock 455 (think it's a 72) complete from carb to pan. It has stock exhaust manifolds, fan blade to fly wheel and was running (good) last month before we took it out and set it in the garage. Ed can get you all the numbers if you need them. Or call him and he'll get you any info you need to verify it's the one you need. (it's cheap) Ed Wiley (352) 650-3574 |
Re: Wanted 1970 - 72 Buick 455
Sure I'll shoot you a PM and you can send me the details.

that ad looks confusing: " VERY NICE BUICK. THIS CAR WAS BUILT AS A D/SA SUPER STOCK " |
Re: Wanted 1970 - 72 Buick 455
I already have pictures of Lyn's car and he was going to have me come out and see the car but I already had a prior appointment to have my car chassis certification redone so I couldn't go.
I was also confused by the ad for that other D/SA car since it appears to have been built more for stock than super stock. I'll probably hook up with Lyn at some point since he is kind of from my neck of the woods. Jeremy |
