Can somone tell me if they make a 1 piece kit for the 64-67s? I know they have them for 68 up. Reason im wondering is I saw somone advertising them on craigslist for $475 and I wasnt aware they were out yet.

They are available now. And about half the price of the 68-72. I can't figure that one out.

Thats good to know. I thought maybe it was a typo when I read it.

Drailed - I see you're from my area up here. Are you planning on going to the GTOAA International conference in Saratoga / Lebanon Valley drag race event?

.

[drailed]

Yes definitly, i was at the valley last weekend for a little while. I was looking for a TA there but didnt see you. Im hoping to have my Lemans back on the road this summer. Still undecided what I want to do for a motor combo for my 400.

[triathlonx13]

I should have the TA at the Valley May 4th if all goes well at the DYNO shop this weekend.

Oh, do you have a contact information on the 64-67 one piece floors? Thanks.

What are you planning to do with the car/400 ? What is the 400 going into?.

.

[drailed]

I have a 67 Lemans. Ive had a 400 in it with 670 heads for the last 15 years. I converted the car to a 4 speed back in the early 90s but id like to go back to an auto. Theres been some good top end deals that ive missed out on in the last couple months. I would like to go with some kind of stoker kit. I was looking at the crank and rods greaserdegreaser has for sale but not sure if 4.50 stroke may be a bit much for my block. This is the link to the floorpans.

Thanks for the link.

What kind of horse power are you looking to get? Street and Strip car?

[drailed]

looking for around 500-550. Like to stay around 11/1 compression. It will probably end up being more of a strip car.

I like the sounds of that !!! If your present motor runs good... it might be a shame to rebuilt it. Might be better to put that aside and find a stock block to build your new motor. 1967 400 casted blocks are the best but other casting are still good for the sort of horse you are talking about.

Ive got the motor torn down now. The block is a 70. Looked good when I pulled it apart since I rebuilt it back in 93. Most of the time it didnt see an easy life. I want to get things rolling soon before another summer is over and gone. Maybe next winter have it painted

[triathlonx13]

Besides rotating assemblies have you started to think about heads?
