So got my 455 cleaned up, painted and ready to reassemble and put back in my 1969 442. I have the chassis service manual to help with it all, but there is a problem, (die hard olds folks already know I bet). I don't have the specs I need in my manual. Is there a 455 manual like a chilton manual or something out there, or do I need to buy the 69 delta88 manual for my engine? Right now I just need basic torq specs, the assembly I think is very close to the 400 in my manual, at least everything looks the same or close enough to figure out.
not against buying another manual, just hope to get more value than 3 pages that I need.

Perfect, thanks again!

What "specs" are you looking for? The 1969 Chassis Service Manual covers the 350, 400, and 455. Everything you need for a stock build is there in chapter 6B. If you are using aftermarket parts, that's a different issue.

 

I agree, I have even found AMA specs for Oldsmobile with bad specs, but the Olds Factory manual was spot on..
