Yes it was optional. My 66 GS didn't have the tach either and when I found a original tach the wire and connection was there under the console ready to go. Please post some pics of this 67GS!

"V8Buick.com" is a more active forum lately. Many members there can read build numbers from the engines, from the chassis, from the engine bay etc. fire wall and tell you where the car was built and what model and options.. You won't be disappointed..

Have you tried asking on the forum "V8 Buick.com"

Do you know what car it came out of? Also this casting numbers info came from the 350 section on the engine links on this forum. I think the #1 on your block was cast on the weak side and can't be seen?? Unless its a replacement block which might explain the X

I'm pretty sure that its the casting # for a late 350. Try the forum "V8Buick.com" It seems to be a more active forum lately and is wealth of info..

It's a little hard to make out the back numbers but I see one 5 and having the 6 valve cover bolts like Tom mentioned i'm pretty sure its a 350. I don't know what the X is on the back casting? maby a replacement block? Let the the experts chime in.. Being that it's a blue color would mean its a...

On the rear of the engine block up top to where the tranny bolts to you should see the # 55 The "2" 5's can be different in sizes. I believe that is the 350 block. If it's a # 455 then its a big block I also believe.

Wow, I cannot believe you got back after all these years:) Really sorry for the issues though and especially the divorce.. So the 425 rebuild never got started? and now it's gone. I would look for another 401 or 425 Nailhead. They are just so nice to look at and make a ton of low end torque...

Your the running the Q-jet on the street for better driveablity and gas mileage?? I googled the AED 1000 HO carb and it says it pretty happy on the street..

^^^^ In a nicely optioned ^^^^ full weight, totally street able car if i'm correct:) I'm guessing 100 lbs weight savings with the heads and intake??

Just for interesting reading like you said, that's all. The thing is it was also available to see even just a few months ago and probably still there somewhere. It's not even for KB parts which are non existing now anyways or any motor i'm planing to build. Just wanting to see more of Buicks...

No it's not this one but thanks:);) I'm pretty sure it is a Kenne bells and or Pops..chart. They start with a 400 at something like 14.4 or 14.5?? then a stock 430 at 14.2?? then a stock 455 at 14.1?? they put a factory stage1 cam and get 14.00?? then the Stage1 heads and get 13.9?? Its...

:( Hi Bob, I still can't find it? All KB links show just the 455 Stage1 from stock to modified. I must be doing something wrong?? Incase i'm causing confusion, it the 1/4 mile chart starting with 400 times, then the 430 times, base 455, stage1 cam added etc.. I thought also I might of seen it on...

Like I mentioned, I can't find one of Kenne Bells Big Block 1/4 mile Staging chart, the one where he starts out with the 400 , then the 430, then the base 455, etc.. I could swear it's listed somewhere here??:whistle:

Over and over iv'e read that the true output on the 70 455 Stage1 was 400 to 420hp. and also heard Mr. Manner claim it was 376 hp. Iv'e also come come across that the Stage1 package only added something like 16hp. over the base 455. Factory fresh Stage1 car's time slips do indicate it could be...
