Dear Got_Tork, Dan, Chuck, Kevin, Jim, Glenn, John, and mid-60s Buick welcome wagon . . .

I have 65 Skylark 2dr hardtop with a 462.

Welcome to 65GS.com!! . . . . . . . . . Well if you've "Got_Tork", don't just sit there.  So exactly how much torque!?  What's the horsepower?  What's the cam?  What's the compression ratio?  What's the dynamic compression ratio?  Go ahead and spill da' beans man! . . . . 

Future plan is to install a 200R4.Keep the R's down on the highway is always a good thing.

Definitely agreed.  Already did that on my "welcome wagon" . . . . .



My wagon's engine might bear a similarity to the engine in your 1965 Buick!



Welcome aboard! 

Cheers, Edouard

Looks like there's a substantial amount of torque doing some serious lifting there.

Dear Got_Tork, Glenn, Kevin, and owners of mid-60s Buicks that "got torque". . . .

Okay, okay, I believe that you've "got torque!" 

So how did you do the cowl induction scoop?  Was that a fiberglass hood or did you manage to "fab" that in steel?

Cheers, Edouard

Mr. Tork,

Welcome to the Playhouse from the upper midwest.
Really cool car, nicely done. There a few 65s with later model 455 POWer residing here.

Tony S. doesn't post a lot of pics, but this is his machine.

Dear Mark, Tork, and mid-60s Buick fans of Torque!

Tony S. doesn't post a lot of pics, but this is his machine.

Hmm, that does strongly resemble a FAST EZ-EFI 1.0 electronic fuel injection system!  I was glad to have one at the time, but I'm definitely sold on laptop adjustable EFI systems now.

Well, you did a great job bolting it on so that the hood looks clean and like cowl belongs there!

P.S. If you feel up to it, go ahead and surprise us with your real name.  As you can see we are a friendly bunch and try to spell everybody's names correctly!
