Over the last few years this seller has had some nicely done muscle cars

( I think so ) and he does seem to have happy customers. I have noticed in the past the garage and driveway shown in these pictures had his location near Atlanta, GA. Maybe he moved.

Bill, again thanks to all for the feedback and observations. The comments are greatly appreciated. I think I will hold off for now. Nice looking car but I'm not tremendously excited about it.

What does the 'swirl polish' in regard to the heads mean??

Where he says "Heads are 041 and 'swirl polished' is he talking about some new GM technology or merely some cosmetic touch? Any ideas? If the swirl polishing he refers to is in the intake runner how was it done and does GM still use the process? I haven't heard that term since the 70s!

I would think swirl poishing would refer to the valves.

So the back of the intake valve would be machined in a way that would swirl the intake charge? Makes as much sense as anything else! Now I've got to find a picture of one of those valves just to satisfy my curiosity!

undercut and swirl polished

here's a better shot

I got it! Swirl technology refers to the back of the intake valve and not the head itself. Thanks.
