    Why?

     



    Why not take the EZ way and drop a 69-70 455 Buick in, that would annillate that small block SBC.

    Good choice!
    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

    This is any interesting quote for the amount of money you would have in a bb buick you can build a great running 400-421 sb chevy and run circles around it plus its lighter and better availabity of parts, rods heads alumin ecs. dont get me wrong i love a bb buick and have driven a few strong ones but nothing beats a tourqy sb that spins to the moon.
    Stock whole different story buick would get the job done nicely over a small hp 400
