too bad the nails did not have better flow or larger valves. they sure had enough torque. jim

I believe the starter switches were under the gas pedal. If so, is it still going to be in the same place Dan? Sure looking good. You are close enought too to where we can come an lay an eye ball on it. Never made it to the swap meet. Hope it was a success. Butch
The add says 55-57 but the Pontiac/Olds rears that I am familiar with are 57-64. The center section looks identical to the 57-58 carrier but I don't know if the 57-64 pig would fit that housing. I think it may. I called and talked with the guy and he doesn't know anything about it but he did say it is much larger than the Chevy. I think you could get it for much less then he is asking and it may be worth it if they 9.3 pig will bolt in. I would call Brad at Fabcraft and ask him. He would know if the 9.3 will bolt in.Dan,
That's a nice looking Chevy truck engine you have there.
Since you seem to be the resident expert on early BOP stuff, I have a question about 55 Pontiac rear ends.
Is this worth anything as far as being stronger than chevy and useable on 55 up Chevies?

Thanks BrianLooks Great

Dan...I am constantly amazed at your skill level!!!! You make Chip Fosse and West Coast Choppers look like amatures!!!!!!
Just talked with Dave at Fabcraft and no the 9.3 will not work in this rear. There have been guys that have masassed the 55-56 housing to fit the 9.3 but it would be better to start with the correct housing. The 57-58 Pontiac Olds housing is a direct bolt in to 55-57 Chev. I had two 57 Olds rears and sold both the tri5 guys.Dan,
