Thanks guys!

Yeah, I miss the torque the 455 made.

I wish I was more informed on Olds motors before I killed the 1st 455, I probably would never have sold it if it never broke down.

On the 1970 455 that I bought for the Omega, I called Mondello and picked up oil restricters, "ported" the block, polished the rods and had the shot peened...Too bad I never got to run it. BUT, Im sure Ill get another Olds 455 eventually

I don't have a direct pic of my Omega scanned, but I do have a pic of my dune buggy with the Omega in the background:


Rear view of the buggy:


Hard to believe it was street legal, eh?
Sorry for the crappy pics, Ill scan pics of my CJ-7 and my Omega later.

And here is a picture of the Mercury that I want to buy:



Its a lot worse than it looks. Its all steel and theres no holes anywhere which is very, very rare in Quebec... I want to buy it and build it so bad.

I DON'T own it yet, because I have to sell this thing first:




I hope I can sell my Laser before the Mercury sells Hopefully some ricer will come along soon....
