Does anyone do Pontiac engines or Buick 350/455 engines in resin?

I don't yet...

I am working on a Pontiac engine.  Not finished with it yet - mostly peripheral pieces to do.  I am working on a tripower setup, but also intend to do a single 4V.  I need to finish tri-pwr carbs, single 4V intake and carb, a manual trans (which one?  preference?  And I am planning to do a TH400.  In the pics, below, everything shown was drawn in 3D except the valve covers, which are kit repops.

Sweet! Thanks to both for making the attempt to do these. IT is much appreciated (at least by me).

I saw it on the web site. Order forthcoming

I've cast the Buick engine and underhood parts from the '69 Wildcat to convert the engineless '70 Wildcat in all its releases. Can also be used for the '69 Rivvi to get a TH transmission instead of the kit 4-speed. 

Runs about 44 pieces last time I counted 

But the site said the topic is gone... hmmmm... will check back this PM

The 69 Riv engine is nicer than the Wildcat one. But as you said it has an incorrect for Rivieras and Wildcats 4 speed trans.

Any hope in wishing for an A/C compressor on the passenger side?

Nope not going to do it. For some odd reason this seems to be a hot topic with this engine most people want me to take power steering off take off this take off that make a race engine but with this engine everybody wants the AC compressor The problem is how fragile and complicated everything will get to do it look at the real engine and think about that in scale. More than anything it's going to be the thinness of the mountains where it mounts on and the belt itself.
