Hello. I am a fan of mainly American Iron. GM in the auto/truck world. Lowered & Retro Pro Street. Street Freaks are fine as well. Presently the herd includes a 1961 Bubble Top that has a major transformation this Spring. A 2 inch per side Narrowed 9", 434 sbc, beefed 350 turbo. All work done by Clint Cambell at C & L Engine & Machine. A pair of old 16x8.5 5 spoke mags for the rear. 4 wheel disc brakes. The previous cruiser motor was a .060 307/350 turbo open 3.08 rear. Next up 1977 short bed Chevy that has the leaf springs inboard so that the biggest Mickey Thompson Sportsmans fit. A 1972 Oldsmobile 455 was stone stock for 10 years. Now said motor was built top to bottom by Clint^^. +.30 decked/line honed/balanced. 10-1 comp, Brand new Aluminum heads were blueprinted (guides so tight he said maybe 2000 miles) shaved, custom ground Clay Smith cam (flat tappet) roller rockers. The intent of this motor was air/cruise/tilt all day interstate. An 1982 2WD Blazer (Swiss cheesed floor boards) waits in the wings as well. Beater-cruiser is the intent. Another old days type motor was built by Clint. 383 budgeted by shaving 882 head & 2.02 valves, cast stroker kit because RPMS are not for this one. Nor the HP heads. What brought me here was researching the 'net for BBC builds & this place would pop up every time. I am ready to start a 454 old days build using 049s. A stroker kit will bring up the torque. Goal 500 horse 600 torque flat solid tappet.
