No that's used. Prices I've seen are $225 to $325 per pair fully assembled and covered in muck. Spend a while cleaning and you usually find they need a little aluminum welding around the coolant tra

Is that the Dual Port or the Equa-Flow Offy intake? I'm looking for feedback from those running the Equa-Flow. In other news, it looks like my Buick 215 will remain on the stand for a while longer.

That's the Dual Port. It's not a dual plane, BTW. The stock Buick/Olds and Edelbrock Performer Rover intakes are dual planes. They have a left/right split plenum with one side of the plenum higher t

Also, a local autocrosser runs an Olds 266 stroker. He's run it for many seasons with no trouble. Why not? 0.030" is usually safe. Some have been taken out to 0.060" but that's the max with no core

You assume too much. While there are several different pistons that will fit the bore, the pin heights are not necessarily in the right place for a stock rod and crank. The pistons mentioned yield t

Why indeed. The best reason is because you already have one and want to save some money. Carter/Edelbrocks will also need some tuning but it's usually easier to do and they don't leak like Holleys.

Yup, that's usually what FAQ's and archives are for. Otherwise you end up repeating the same stuff over and over again. True for any Holley (or other carb) on any engine. If the jetting, PVCR's, pum

Ypu won't just bolt the edelbrock on either. Figure $45 for the tuning kit. You'll still need to tune it but the rods and springs are easy. Jets and floats require removing the top cover. Still chea

The overhang doesn't seem to be a problem in practice. I'm told 350 Chev smog heads are this way too. I haven't seen any of those. Not that I've seen. In the U.S., those motors only came in Range Ro

This is pretty typical. Silvolite will make a batch of these only when they get a certain number of orders to make it worth their while. There are few places vendors you can check that may have a set

Lars, are you aware that there are two different styles of Oldsmobile heads? If you're stroking, you probably want the 51 cc heads or, better yet, the 54 cc Buick 300 heads. Dan Jones Thanks, I think
