215 Buick (and Oldsmobile) Tech

[SuperBuickGuy]

I have a set of 64 Buick 300 heads that we ported and fitted with Ferrea Buick V-6 stage 1 valves.. a 4.6 block with a slipped sleeve .( I have T hat liners for it ). a 4.6 crank Im going to offset grind close to a 3.4 stroke... Still lots of stuff to do on the Buick /Rover hybrid stoker..
I also have a little Olds 215 enigine that I just took apart to rebuild and put in the Astre for now.. The Bummer is its a 2BBL engine with only 8.75 to 1 heads.. Ive been beating the bushes looking for a good set of 4BBL heads to bump the compression up to 10.25 to 1. The casting number I need ends in 829.. If you have any you want to sell or any leads I would appreciate it.. Flatlander said they could do domed pistons for around $850 But Id rather not spend that kind of $$$ on this little engine.

I will go look and see what the head casting numbers are...
