attn gaey kilofski
 
a friend sent me a link of a 55 chevy powered by a marine v12 engine,the link said the car is owned by gary killofski.i must say that it was one of the cleanest,bust built cars i have ever seen.is this the same gary killofski that makes gears and things for some merc outdrives?

That is insane - beautiful car and the narration is almost subdued as Gary describes building the car.

Good Find/Post!

in doing some research i think the engine is a gmc called the twin six.i would love to find one to play with.gm produced around 5000 of them from 1960 till 1965.

Thanks everybody. Yes i'm the same contributor to OSO that does all the Mercury gears for the SSM drives. If you watch the video of the 55 on Utube, please feel free to share with anyone that may be interested. Also it is not the old V12 made by GM but a 730cid alum hemi head marine engine built primarily for the marine industry by BPM Marine in Italy.

Beautiful car!!!!!! Just like you explained in the video, it becomes more different, the more you look at the details.
