Nice to see! I have a 62 olds 88 and have been looking to keep the ol' 394. Nice to see what you can do.

Different!!!

Great to see something other than the usual Chevy based gassers.

What sort of performance does it have?

sick whip! im rebuilding my 394 for my 1964 oldsmobile 98. do you know of any good places to get parts? i kinda want to put a mild twist on mine for a lil more hp

[paulcsmith]

could you tell me about your setup?

I have a 4-71 blown 303 in a Model T

and recently picked up a 6-71 manifold to fit a 394 and plan to start building a hot street motor for an A Roadster soon.

any advice would be apreciated, thanks..

hi !!

my engine is bored and stroked to 437 cui forged pistons and H beam rods from olds 455 and a 425 crank .

roller cam 577 valve lift 300 degres total duration ,114 lob sep ,28 % over drive on the 671 gmc blower .

all this shuld give abaut 800 hp

but in a 31 roadster you vill kill your self with 800 hp so use 455 pistons they have the same bore and comp higth as th 394 and 10 % over on the blower ,

and schneider cams in sandiego will get a cam fore you ..

thanks thom
