Olds 455 w/ "C" heads for sale/Extras also

I am in the Kansas City area and recently purchased a 72 GS 455. The Buick big block had been replaced w/ a Olds 455 out of a 69 442 according to the previous owner. I am currently building a Stage II engine and am selling this Olds 455 as well as the TH350 that came w/ the GS.

The block numbers are 30M137064 and the heads are a "C" series, part number 394 548. Best we can tell is the 69 442 had a 70 short block installed (warranty possibly?) The paint underneath the black spray paint is red. Regardless, the 70 block w/ the C heads from what I understand is a very good combination and boht are there complete and running in the car. The engine also has a mild cam, I don't know if this was factory or added later.

The engine runs very strong, doesn't smoke/use any oil, runs consistently at 180 degrees. The stock carb/mainfold is gone...now has a Edelbrock carb w/ electric choke on an iron manifold and new Edelbrock Performer in the box. Also has long tube headers and Accel HEI distributor.

Would like to sell engine complete and sell carb, headers and aluminum intake seperate. Feel free to e-mail offers or call my business number (913)438-2909. The Edelbrock Performer manifold is $150, headers ???, carb $100, engine and C heads...I'll condsider all fair offers. Would prefer local pickup, but would consider shipping at buyers expense
