56buickinga Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I have a 1955 Century 322 with dynaflow attached for sale. It has the 4bbl wcfb the secondaries are seized and it has the complete air breather with thermostat bracket. no generator. no spark plug covers. everything else appears to be there. running condition unknown $500 asking plus shipping. Was keeping it as parts for my 56 but I got a cj and would rather jeep parts have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buickborn Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Your engine appears to be a '54. Starting with the '55s (actually late '54s, if I'm not mistaken), these engines used twin oil filler/breather caps, one atop each rocker cover -- probably because the earlier arrangement allows little clearance for an oil can due to the proximity of the air silencer.

Early 55s had a center fill actually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
