Is anyone looking to do a 455 or 350 olds build in Chicagoland?

Please contact me. I have a bunch of good parts to get you halfway there and a very knowledgeable machinist with all of the necessary olds tooling. Lots of items invested into to facilitate Olds builds. Torque plates, flow bench plates, bhj etc. I would like to do one soon as well, so let's scratch each other's backs. Let's put our heads together and get you something nice.

I'm talking about 4k plus builds, 400-600 hp.... not junkyard stuff. Looking for a serious customer to help use up goodies I have around.

I'm not looking to profit from being a middle man here. Just looking to unload some nice items from several incomplete combos at the moment. I've discovered that me building to my liking and attempting to sell complete engines gets zero profit in the long run, because everyone likes to do it themselves, and do nott place any trust in "mystery engines" Even if they're top notch.

I'm am looking to rebuild my 455 soon, hopefully. I was planning on going to AES in Elk Grove to have the work done. I am probably going to do a roller motor hopefully around 500hp.

As far as small blocks, I have 2 pairs of old heads 4 & 5, A crank freshly turned and balanced with the flex plate and balancer .010 main .020 rods.

I'm not exactly sure why no one wants it, but I'm pretty sure they'll be bummed out, when their engine is all said and done, and they spent more time and money.

I also have this engine ready to drop in and go, mid 12's.

It's a good simple and proven formula for a cool street pounder/ pump gas bracket car
