does the 2 bl carb motors come with smaller valves like in the sbo?

 

Unlikely that any C heads have large valves exc. 442, Toro, H/O. Std issue, no. Are you looking to do NO work at all to the motor then, just install and run? That might be tough to find in the $1k range. 'Cause, while re-doing heads, fitting the big valves is de rigeur, easy as pi.

here is one in GA

no ill rebuild the motor just didn't no about the valves I know sbo but never done a bbo just asking will all years bbo bolt into a 70 cutlass s

 

Sure, that's how they made 442's
A 442 is just a glorified Cutlass, which is a glorified F-85

By the way, what you really want is the 425.

 

o really what year were they made

"425[edit]
The 425 cu in (7.0 L) big-block was the first tall-deck "big block," produced from 1965 through 1967. It is arguably the best engine Olds made in the muscle car era, although it never made it into a "muscle car". It used a 4.126 in (104.8 mm) bore and 3.975 in (101.0 mm) stroke. Most 425s were painted red, though the 1966 and 1967 Toronado units were light blue. All 425 engines were fitted with forged steel crankshafts with harmonic balancers."

 

Chris, I agree with you regarding the performance potential of the 425; however, you may want to mention that the cam/lifter differences of SOME 425s can cause confusion. 39* vs. 45* and 0.921" vs. 0.842" lifter dia.

 

I have a 67 425 toronado motor. Yes I am a long way from Hudson Valley but with Fastenal we can ship for about $200. Running 67 425 toronado motor

I RECOMMEND THAT damn caps lock
other than the hard to find 0.921" lifters, that is the engine to have.

 

I have a 67 425 that I removed from a 67 98..... The previous owner supposedly had just rebuilt it before he had a garage fire and the car was damage but the drive train was not.... It was a running engine before I pulled it about 2 years ago.... It is complete carb to pan with the flywheel (important to note since the flywheel would be different from the 455).... It is located in the Albany NY area just north of you.... If interested, pm me for any additional details........
