We used to put 305 heads on 350 blocks, 305 has bigger valves and smaller combustion chambers. We've done that on the 5.7 throttle body vortex engines also.

Only way we could boost an old Ford was to drop in a 351 Cleveland.

I have a 56 Bel air wagon ex drag car that was my wife's uncles. They raced it back in the late 60s. I have plans on a wicked 396 big block to go in it, I'd like to do do twin mirror image turbos for the power, but I'm doing it up as a 60s racer so it's probly gonna get a natural finish 871 blower up top white fenderwell headers and a straight axle up front. Pie crust white wall slicks in back on cragar s/s wheels
396 was a good engine

Not really. Onark Industries after a quick google search apparently has a division called Oregon Saw Chain, it appears the company was into making saw chains and other items for the industry.

Yes, Omark indstries became Oregon Bar and chain.. i dont wanna get too side-tracked here but i commonly see "Use Mcculloch brand chain" lables im guessing they swiched it to Oregon sometime after the Oregon chain co. vs The McCulloch corp. Courtcase over chipper chain patent rights....

I’ve seen stickers on old saws that say use Oregon chain or use Carlton chain, etc. My best guess is that whoever sold the saws originally put stickers on them saying what brand of chain to buy so the buyer would come back to their store to buy new chains. For example if there are three stores in town, one sells Mcculloch saws and Oregon chains and the other sells Stihl saws and stihl chain and another sells Poulan and Carlton chain. The Mcculloch dealer would want to put that sticker so the buyer would use Oregon chains from his store.
And if it came from Wal-Mart, you $&%$ out of luck.

What i think i got is a 1\2doz testing/research super797's that came outta the Oregon\Omark industries shop in Portland Or... The tags are riveted into the case same as you'd see a serial number done at the factory...in addition to "use factory rec. chain" and "30w oil" stickers
