Ken,
In an interview with "Doc" Watson about the Hurst Olds, he states that "the
cars already had the 455's in them". You can see that interview on reruns on
Speed TV of The American Muscle Car, episode called "Performance by Hurst". I
have copies of that show in tape if you need further "proof".
Best wishes,
