If you want the stock-ish look with a better manifold, simply grind the EDELBROCK logo off the aluminum intake, sandblast to cover the grinder marks, and paint it with engine enamel. I'm guessing you don't want the divorced choke anyway. I like that idea, too. For my car, I'm too far down the first path though. '66 manifold is already painted, installed and the engine started.

I'm going with a cast iron '66 spread bore to keep the stock-ish look and run a Quadrajet or Holley (haven't decided yet). The Olds specialist that worked on my 400 block said the stock 400 with the 4GC tends to run lean and needs more fuel. Might contribute to the heat issues as well. -Grant

Thanks Bob. Sent you an email.
@ragtop, looked pretty hard on eBay but didn't find it. Maybe it's gone. Thanks though.

Looking for a passenger side upper alternator bracket for a non-AC '65 442. Everybody has two or three kicking around, right? -Grant

Hi OldOlds88, I need them for a '65. Are you willing to part with them?

Just ran across this and didn't see it posted here. It may be the same as one that was posted back in June. Posting has been up for almost a month though so it's probably gone. lancaster.craigslist.org/pts/4647590872.html

Hey guys, I'm looking for a pair of the lower radiator support brackets. The ones that bolt to the core support and the radiator sits in. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Grant

doubt it was the same on SlowOlds saw. Walking to lunch last week I saw a red '65 442 Holiday Coupe driving down Wilshire Blvd into Santa Monica. Maybe one of these days I'll see it again.

nothing like pulling up a 2 year old post...
This year I found it. Didn't get to see it run though. I saw it getting pulled back after a run but could never track the guys down.

Nick, I'll PM you my number. I'm leaving LA tomorrow after work so I'll probably be in Reno sometime Wednesday. We'll have to meet up for some beers. -grant

That's pretty cool. I'll have to watch for it. I got to see the cars up close and the haulers when I was out at Famoso for the California Hot Rod Reunion. Pretty cool story behind one of those haulers. Some guy found it in a back-yard or something and realized what it was.

Episode was on last night as I was dozing off. www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5vUPqv8bTwIn the first couple seconds of this episode you can spot a '65 sitting in the background as the derby car pulls out of the driveway. Maybe there are some overpriced parts on it someone needs. haha. I think the show is garbage.
