Me again

The poly's last year was 66. 67 was the first of the LA, unless you lived in Canada, and then you got the poly for one more. If you indeed have a 66 poly, you will need an adaptor to put it on your 59 Trans. I have one. I paid 350 bucks for it. I would like to get somewhere around 250 for it.

Are you sure?

Ok, I can see if an engine is clapped out to the point there is no compression, but.... Have you tried everything? adjusted the valves properly... is your carb good? You have the coil wired up right? You getting plenty of spark? Are you sure you don't have something else going on? Leaking intake gas...

PB Blaster

I pulled the exhaust flanges apart on a 71 318 that had been run in salt for several years by soaking with PB blaster. It works much better than WD40 and I haven't scraped a knuckle trying to break a bolt loose since I have used it.

FWIW

For what its worth, if you come git it, you can have all my poly stuff, including the block with good rings and bearings in it. I found it was leaking exhaust around one of the coolant passages between 5 and 7. I want the space in my garage back... Come get it.

Update

Ok. I am going to use one of the Edelbrocks for the new 318 I am putting in the car, so... I will take 225 for the front 500 one and the progressive linkage. I will take 150 for the 2-4 intake. Remember guys, if you are interested, lets talk!
