Mike, I put the 455 back in last fall with a new cam, I ran the Indy Fall Classic with a best ET of 11.25/115.70. I'm freshing the 350 and putting together a second car for the 350. I'm also in the process of assembling a .060 over 455, or maybe I should say wasting time, because the cylinder walls are paper thin? The game plan is to run the 455 most of the race's this season and maybe I'll get back winning round or two? JKeihn 3954

That's some great et out of the ol girl. Is yours the 71 or 72 combo? All I have is 72 parts right now but I see that the 71 is a natural G car and 72 is natural F car. At least some buicks are getting their as far at ET goes to try to compete with the small block mopars and small Chevys.
