Default Re: the build

Like you I have deep expectatioins and dreams for a stock 255. Not a fan of lopey cams. I am 68 and never been to a drag race, and only one real car show. I just want to go up hills without downshifting and I LOVE the single point distributor that I can work on. I wish I had more to add, I just want some low end power without the hassle of two carbs.......
