Quick question, I have a 1967 340 engine, but the fuel line from the pump to the carb is questionable and old. I can't find an original fuel line for it, but I can find lots of fuel lines for the 350 Buick. Is the fuel pump on the 350 interchangeable with the 340 engine? Would make getting a new...
Have another Buick guy looking to buy the chrome trunk strip and side strips, complete if possible for his GS California. If you have one or all three, p.m. me with pictures and price, he pays for shipping. Thanks.
The '64 to part way thru '67 rears were 1 inch narrower on each side than the later 8.2's. I believe the '69 rear would bolt right in, but then the wheel offset comes into play. I was emailing a rear end shop in Vancouver that does have a rebuild kit for the '64 and they said I could just switch...
Thanks for the info Bill. I was told long time ago, the '64 rear wasn't that strong. But now I differ on that thinking. I have a '69 3:23 posi complete rear out of a GS that has been sitting on the shop floor for over 10 years now. Hope the internals will fit into the '64, and put the 2:73's on...
Nope, just a street car, no slicks or sticky tires. I was wondering about the '64 8.2. Should be the same strenght as '65 when Buick put the 401 in the GS, that rear took the abuse back then.
Sure, its me, thanks again for the trouble for sending it Bill. Still thinking of putting in the 455 in the '64, but would the 8.2 rear end take the torque?
Larry, sending you some pictures of one of the heads, I found this one, and the other has to be near it. Will look again when I go back to the storage place. Also sending you pics of a pair of complete rocker arms that I have, one of them is missing the tab that rests on the valve stem, will...
I will try and get you pictures in the next few days. I will send them from my wife's phone, she know how to do this. Will include the casting numbers also. Will get you shipping quotes, hopefully Friday or Monday. Thanks, Donnie.
I have a set of '64 aluminum heads I bought many many years ago. Problem is each head has a bad spark plug thread. I bought them for a spare set, because the rest of the head is in great shape, but never got around to fixing the spark plug threads in each. Some body had started to heli coil...
Nice picture of the trunk replacement. Awsome. I bought a spare '64 Skylark for a parts car years ago, but it is in too nice a shape to use it that way. Still runs, and drives. But I have two spots in the trunk beside the inner fender wells that will need attention someday. Water is coming in...
Found it Bill, also found the clamps to hold the cable to the bottom of the transmission I need at The Parts Place. I should be good to go now. On my '64 Skylark, it has the driver's side speedo, so no problems with the 4 speed in it. Would like to somehow find the rare, one year only, 4 speed...
