looking for a rebuildable Olds 403 motor. don't need 4A heads. using set of #5's. good rebuildable short block will do. thanks.

 

Check out your local auto salvage yard. You can get 403s from late 70s Delta 88s, 98s, and Toronados.

 

Who is "setting up" the #5 heads for your 403?

 

I get my stuff done by a local machine shop that's been in business over 30-years. They're extremely reputable. They're not cheap, but they build em' right. They built my '69 Olds 350 that's going in my '78 Cutlass. Some time ago, they built a 403 with 350 heads for a customer that cranked out about 500 FT LBS of torque. The customer stuck it in a front wheel drive Riviera! They're totally familiar with this type of build. I already have the heads (#5's) and guts of a factory 4-barrel '69 Olds 350, which I intend to use for the 403 build.

 

Olds64,

Chris (rocketscientist) has an unusual sense of humor...
You can also contact him over at realoldspower.com (octainia).
Or use the phone # he provided.
He knows part #'s better than anyone else I have met.
Honest guy, nice to deal with.

I've got one.
Asking $150 for block and crank.

 

If you don't strike a deal with J, BME in Texas has advertised one on e-bay several times in the last month. I was a looking, until I got my freebee.

Then I had to buy a crankshaft for it.

 

There is one for sale on the next page of parts for sale.

 

We have a good engine that comes with a car, it is in a Toronado and it was running when we parked it some time ago. The car only has about 80k actual miles. We are asking $500 for the entire car.

 

Please send pics of the motor. Thank you.
