G'day All !
It's Thhursday in Aus and I have visited my 455 & my 67 Delta 88 Custom.
Well ... it was more like just a visit to the motor... as that is what the 67 is waiting for.
It was worth it ! I found my 455 (now 463) just about ready to fire up and I hope I can have some footage of it on the engine Dyno next week.

Some info on the motor ... it will apparently be running 9.2:1 comp ration (originally 8.5:1), a ProComp HEI distributor & leads to HEI plugs... They will run it in on petrol on the Dyno so it can be put into the 67 on straight LPG.
I can't wait for next week now.
in the mean time I have sold the 66 coupe I had bought for it's 425... the new owner is a Olds nut in a place called Romsey, north of our State's capital - Melbourne. He reports the 425 is a sweet runner (I never had it running while i had it) and he's looking forward to putting a later model EFI 455 in it. I guess he'll sell the 425.
Anyway ... once again, thanks for your interest
