Welcome back from hibernation

Nice choice with Cam Motion

Can't wait to hear it running again.

Lol, haven't been hibernating. Just been busy around here.

Got the cam in and heads on, should be able to finish it up tomorrow.

Got the Buick running over the weekend and mounted the new tires. Went from Hoosier pro street 29x12x15 to Mickey Thompson sportsman s/r 29x15x15. Running real strong,

Hi everyone.

Haven't been posting anything on the Buick mainly because I haven't done anything to it except drive the hell out of it. This new cam and valvetrain set up has been flawless.

Whereas winter is coming I am planning on taking the body off one more time and finishing all the body work, I'm not doing anything to the motor except freshening up the top end and most likely going to a larger diameter pushrod.

I also have a lot of parts that are no longer any use with this motor set up as well as a lot of parts that I will no longer be making. I'll be posting a couple of pictures here as I empty out a couple of drawers .

A few more things up for sale, I'll start a sales thread at some point but for now, two new sets of comp cams 5/16 pushrods. $75 each, shipped
7.45 and 7.90 lengths

Used T&D aluminum rockers, good for spares or parts, lost a lifter and took the cam and a couple of rockers so it's not a full set and they are used.

Happy Thanksgiving all.

Haven't posted much because I haven't done anything with the Buick except driveing it but that's going to change soon, it's up for sale and I'm starting a new build.
