Default Re: 63 Buick Wildcat 401 nail head

I had a Super Wildcat 65 Riv in 1874..it was a 425 CI engineand I later found out it was one of a handful of non GS 2/4 Rivs...called an A8 car...those engines had shaft mounted aluminum rockers with a steel pad pressed into the valve tip end....I replaced quite a few of those crappy rockers when I hammered the valve end and ruined the steel insert...I just MAY have over revved it a few times....it was so cool though.

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.
