For sale is an Oldsmobile 455. I don't know much about the motors internals, since we just picked up the boat. I do know that it has an edelbrock torquer intake HEI ignition and what looks to be a rather new Dooley jet pan. The motor fires right up and idles with 40 plus psi oil pressure. And has a nice lope to it at idle. Motor also comes with the Bassett headers pictured the ski tow and the polished four point mounts. Come see the motor run before I pull it. All I want is the carb and sending units for my gauges. $1000 takes the whole package  my cell number is (661) 476-9351

Here are a few of the worthy pictures I got of this past weekend, feel free to add to this thread.

Any dates looking good for it.   Brad,I know this is probably not your biggest concern right now so I understand if this doesn't get touched for a few. Just wanting to bring it up to the top.

Today I decided to pull apart the carb that I had on the boat and rejet it so It could e out back on a smaller motor. When I pulled the bowls off the insides look like they are peeling( blistered and almost like a dried up river bed). My questions are if any o you have seen this before, what would cause this, and finally is it safe to strip all that shit out of there(what I am doing now) clean and run it? It I like slag almost, if you hit it with a screwdriver or tool it will break off.

Just as the title says. Long story short, bought some parts from a member in September, they were not as described and  I had given ample opportunity to make good on the deal as agreed to by the seller. But here were are months later and still no close to this deal. I wanted to take the nice guy approach since this is a fairly small group, but so far this has not gotten me anywhere. I know what has to be done to resolve this issue. and have already put it in motion. Just feel it should have never come to this Overall very dissapointed in the whole deal.

Rant Over

We were supposed to meet up yesterday to square up on a deal we had. Havent heard from him in two weeks and can not get ahold of him.

I have a set of Edelbrock 3" exhaust snails that originally came on my boat. they are very nice with only a few superficial scratches. they still have a decent polish on them and would take very little to bring them back to looking like new. All plugs and fittings are brass so no risk of pulling the treads if you wish to remove them. Asking $150 obo

 I almost lost my Dad today. At 5:30 pm my Dad suffered a massive heart attack. According to the heart surgeon he had an artery that was 100% blocked to his heart and another that was/still is about 50/60% blocked by a lesion and durring the angioplastis his heart actually slowed down and almost stopped a number of times, they had to hook him up to a pacemaker temporarily to keep him alive. The doctor told us that this was the big one in terms of sevarity, he suffered the most massive heart attack that a person can have without killing them instantly. My Dad is only 50 years old and in pretty good health,... or so we thought. Take care of yourselvs everyone, there are people in your lives that aren't ready to get rid of you  just yet.

Is anyone else having troubles with staying lgged in to the site? It seems now I have to log in every time I enter the site, doesn't matter if I check the box on the log in page that says "stay logged in". 

How am I supposed to get anythimg done on the boat if it is snowing? This is the first snow "storm'' in Santa Clarita in 20 years. So I guess I'll let it slide this one time.Oh and heres some proof from the beginning of it  

OK guys it seems I need some schooling on how to remove the pump from my Sanger. How do I go about doing this? It looks to me like I am going to have to pull the motor to do this.
