Well, OK then.  It appears you've thought of everything. 

In my case, that would be KISS....Keep It Simple Stupid!   :laughing7:

Thanks,

Chuck

Learned that a long time ago as a mechanic.
Good practice, especially when trying to solve a car issue.

Dennis,

You should have received the adapter plate today.  Was it in the mailbox?

Do you guys know where I can get a set of plates?  I'm putting a 65 401 in my 65 skylark and need the adapter plates. 

Thanks

I may need a GS oil pan too.  Bought one from a local Buick guy over the weekend and once it was cleaned and sand blasted it was holy...and not in a good way :-)
He's trying to find another one, I told him if he can't come up with one by next Friday I will have to get one somewhere else.
Thanks

Dan...  I HAD several sets over the years and even tho this is an older pix, I believe I still have this one last set. 
If I do, they're yours for $225/pr shipped.

WOW... LIVONIA?  Hung out with my cousins at 5 mile and Middlebelt for many many years...  Livonia Mall was THE PLACE back in the late 60's!
I lived in Farmington 1957-61, Southfield 61-64, West Bloomfield 64 til we moved to Tampa Bay in 1971.
