This site has supplied me with information many times which convinced me to join.
My Oldsmobiles have been dormant for many years but its time to wake them up again.
I have built 455's for my jet boats and shocked the chevy boys many times at the Colorado river. The JetBoat engine's are run very hard 5000 RPM for 20 to 30 min at a time. 455 Olds engines are great torque producers.
The dormant cars are 1968 442's one is very clean the other is a rust free California car all stock with AC & PW. this was my boat towing vehicle for many years.
Im very interested in building a 455 stroker for the restored car. and keeping the California car mostly stock. (Maybe a gearvender's ).

Welcome to CO. You will find some interesting information on the engine forums that might help you in your build. If not, then maybe you could share your build with us when you do it. Just start a thread and include lots of pictures.
