I'd also be nervous about publishing this deal on a national forum before it happens.I sure wouldn't be telling anyone where I live or where the car is.
Good luck. </div></div>

The 454, while freshly rebuilt/restored (before he purchased), is making &quot;ticking&quot; noises and he just can't stand it. </div></div>

He does realize it's a solid lifter engine...right? </div></div>

I had someone say that about the 302...
Onlooker: It's ticking.
Me: It's the valve clearance for the solid lifter camshaft...
Onlooker: huh?
Me: Exactly...
