WOW!!! That looks purdee! Have you considered getting a job with a swiss watch company LOL. Please keep posting pictures of this engine going together. One Question though, I thought that the buick 455 stage 1 valve springs were the way to go on a stovebolt. Is this true or does it only apply to later engines? Jay 6155
Thanks Jay. The coatings and details are pretty for now. The underlying objective is to preserve the parts while they are being used in a car that will be driven.
I am not familiar with the interchange of springs from a '70 Buick GS into the stove bolts . . . wouldn't have a place for them anyway. I am building an early fifties hop up based on vintage ideas and parts.
