HEY i JUST BOUGHT A 1965 OLDS F85 AND TRING TO FIND OUT IF A CHEV 350 DISTRIBITOR HEI WILL FIT ANY HELP ?

 

Only if you have a small block chevy engine in there.

 

no its the 330 olds

 

Olds distributors even turn the opposite direction, cap may fit......Tedd

 

The Chevy HEI isn't even close to working in an Olds 330; too long or tall and spins in the wrong/opposite direction. There are some real inexpensive Olds HEIs on eBay all the time. They are ready to drop in and run and usually are around $60.00. You will need to purchase a new set of ignition wires, also---they are usually avaiable for about $30.00. Why do you think you need one? Your problem might be something we all can help you with providing we have some more info.

 

I dont need it for it to run. when I got the car the kid told me it needed a timing chain but i had it running a few after i got it home he messed up the timing and just needed the points adjusted he had them all the way closed I just have some chev 350 hei laying around so I figured if they fit I would put one in So any olds hei will fit or do I need a certin one ?

 

64 up small blocks or 65 up BB Hei will work. Prob best to get an earlier one with vacuum advance.

 

Thanks for all the help it was great hearing the positive feed back I been An olds lover since I can remeber never thought I would own one again after the x wife made me sell my 72 olds cutlas. my current sweat heart bought this beauty for me!!!

 

No more help until pictures!!
1st one's on us!!
Must include girlfriend!!


[just kidding!!]

 

THERE ARE A FEW ON MY album I will get some of my 72 I need to scan them in my current computer does not have them saved on it

 

Welcome. To expand on some of the other posts, there is virtually NOTHING that interchanges between a Chevy and an Olds motor. They are completely different designs with completely different castings, internal dimensions, etc. About the only parts that do interchange are the distributor cap and rotor.

 

the wheels need to go but here is my new baby

 

Looks pretty nice and welcome to CO!

 

nice car, i agree on the wheels, and the girl friend
