Progress.

Read this y’all Holley tri power for a small block Chevy. They have a intake now for small block chevies running on the 2300 series carburetor.

the price will finally jump up on tri power corvette carburetors.

gm does not allow many repop for big block Chevy tri power so those repop a are always high dollars around 2000 even the antique ones are upwards of 3000 dollars.

and theyre really rare so it wasn’t a market for the carburetors until now!

so finally the tri power Chevy carb has a market if I was y’all I’d be looking for Holley tri power on thr cheap corvette that what I’ll be doing.

This is big block Chevy prices for a long time that’s all I seen every time I look em up so the mass of carburetors don’t have a market until now…

Missing bowl and vacuum. But still a fair deal I believe. I can’t offer him anything right now. My dad has to get caught up so if y’all like it jump into it.

This is a good deal a really good deal for a 383 engine-it’s all been sealed.

I bought that 361 with offenhouser valve covers and a 361 tri power stromberg but the 361 turned out sour.
But I learned to look for sealed engines like this one.
They even said they would ship it with everything pulley system to air cleaner-ask first…

I want it but dad doesn’t for good reason we have enough projects as it is.

That makes me happier about my car…. I’d rather want what I got than this even thou my car had more rust issues..

goodnight y’all.

I got excited and wanted to share this after days of thinking about it-I got another 1967 440 with 915 heads from French lake auto parts store for 900 dollars complete.

It turns over and the intake tray isn’t rusted out I made sure of that by what I learned from the 361.
now I have profits by these two motors without doing nothing to em except cleaning them up and show detailed pictures of each part in bulk if I was to sell.
All I need is a 440 six pack intake.

But first I hope this motor has a positive outcome.

tomorroe it arrives and it might not have 915 heads but 906.

it isn’t 516 because it has the rear freeze plug in each head.

I’m hoping this steel forged crank turns out good because these cranks are obsolete now what we found out from internal engine parts.

French lake auto parts does residential shipping they must have a contract with r and l carriers to be doing such low shipping for residential based transportation.

I wish I still had the 1967 440 with 915 heads that was for sell not built but in this shape for 1500 complete without shipping it sold in a few days because he advertised 915 heads I guess it sold.
 
What I’ve learned in a distrustworthy world is if you want to sell quick a 440 engine or a core engine you take a apart yourself and inspect it and take pictures of every nook and cranny for cracks and then send it off if you want to a certified professional machine shop better the name better the paperwork for asking premium prices..

no one wants to pay 5000 dollars for a engine that they only see from the outside from 2 or 3 pictures you will be trying to sell it to when hell freezes over.

best to always manipulate thr customer into forfeiting his or her perspective on the engine by showing as much as you can to disprove their fears in their perspective-that’s how you sell quick.
Why I was once a billionaire when doing this same thought with millions of dollars the way im doing with hundreds of dollars-if I had tens of millions to work with I bet money I’d be a billionaire in a decade or less seriously…

I go with the flow and build a parts Arsenal to use for a wide variety of different combinations for when I sell-my main personality trait when dealing with money is having a big sell month after years of piecing and pricing everything together in bundles-I want the challenger,c10,all engines and electronic bundles all together to sell at one time.

A big problem of mine I’m dealing with is time.
Time is aging the c10 time could make fine scratches imperfections over time by common mistakes around it and I don’t have a indoor shop that is heated so it literally like working from the bottom to the top..


Win or lose in all bundles I have-all I need is tens of thousands of dollars to turn it into 6 figures in 6 months and turn 6 figures into a million dollars..
 
Google learning building knowledge and buying amd selling is what my main trait was in my past life I believe as a billionaire(I think prideful I was at one time if I had a past life).
 
Okay enough jokes I’m going back on break time. See y’all later on.
 
G440 1971 with 906 heads single point distributor.
Like McDonald’s monopoly(the engine stamp loookg for hp lol) it didn’t turn out to be a 1967 hp with 915 heads..

very good compression hard to turn over in compression stroke so far I know. The heads have been lubricated meaning it hadn’t been sitting very long idle.

I’m not taking it apart-me and dad is going to get a new distributor, starter and try and fire it up.
Then I’ll clean it up and paint it.

I’m taking another break for atleast a day truthfully.

We have taken the crank back out to get the rust out of the engine.
 
I like things cozy and in place. The engine needs to feel love again I believe.

I seriously sometime feel happiness when the engines in the house feel warmth from good ventilation from a fireplace or heater in just weird like that.

If I have a bad day I look at these parts and think everything is cozy and warm.

This is my second coming my savior and what will help me a lot because this challenger is stressful. Hopefully I have this at the end of the year. Inline six one of 1500 produced in 1970. No funny business all there too. It just needs to be assembled.

One set not restored non originals makes me feel better about our sets. A 2015 gtr at one of my favorite bars. California tags thou is strange to be driving cross country in a 130000 dollar car brand new-it’s a driver it does have dings thou.
