Has the 455 with the complete drive train. It seems that there isn't much demand for this stuff anymore. Don't know if it's worth getting.

If you can get the entire front frame clip, there is a lot of possible good
stuff there.

Hi Bob, depends on the year model. The early gold and rare red 455s had the highest nickel content blocks. F cast on the rear of the block inside the bellhousing. First series of blue 455s were F-1, they are good also and had the C heads. No smog bumps. Little higher compression 9 & 9.5. Makes a great premium fuel engine. The higher the cast # the less nickel in the block F2-3-4. I am looking for a red 455 with factory 2bbl to build.
