        The Nailhead was a Buick engine series, in the Wildcat and other cars. And might as well go big, 425 Nailhead.

        And I still can't wait to see this 305 light up the tires.

                so satisfying when you get that big lump out of there and get to deal with all the stuff that was previously a big hairy deal. Can't wait to see this thing re-engined.

                160KMs 600cfm holley, shorty headers, 2.5" catted exhaust, 255/295 tires, cop shocks, cop swaybars, underdrive pulley, 2.73L gears.
                waiting for install: 3.27's, Poly bushings, boxed rear arms, 2500 stall converter, ported e7's, etc

                      That is how you're supposed to jack it.

                        It's not worn out and leaky like the old one, and much cheaper/easier than any other option, so sounds good to me.
