One of my Buddies is wanting a 455 for his girlfriend's car
So I brought two more motors from my old shop to the new one
to see what I have

1975 455 destroked to 428 but bored so 440 with carrillo rods, weisco pistons,roller rockers, etc.. crank walked due to bad scatter shield... all bearings bad
Built in Idaho

400 balanced, blueprinted but all stock items 1971 block
Rod bolt went out the side of the pan.. built in Oklahoma

455 1973 stock motor out of a junk car... spun bearing

Here we have 4 of the 9 motors this car has had over the years
so I thought a group shot before I start getting rid of them
