Hello everyone.A friend of mine with a unbelievably nice 63 409 gave me this link. You all know him as jims409.Anyway Im real glad that I found this site because I have loved 409 chevys since I was a kid in the sixtys. I finally found a 409ci engine in a junk yard while in collage in denver. I bought that engine for $65.00 the junk man thought it was a 348ci. That was in 1980 since then it has been moved several times (different houses and apartments) Then in 1988 I bought a 1955 chevy210 with a 327ci and a powerglide.I drove it that way until I blew up the powerglide. That is when I decided to build the 409 and put it in there.I have a stroker kit in it with 101/2 to 1 ross full floaters 690 heads an isky 620 solid roller cam a offenhauser duall quad intake that I had to tig weld .500 to the top of each port because the 690 heads are that much taller.I could go on forever telling you all of the modifications that have been made but this is already too long for an introduction and I dont want to bore you guys.Thanks for reading and I will try to post some pics
