My 283 build.
I started with a zero mile 283ci That had been in storage. It was still on the shipping crate. The heads were mismatched, so I bought the correct head 520 casting head to match the other 520 powerpack head. The factory cam was changed out for a GK930 cam and then a double row timing chain. I had to find the rest of the parts including the correct Rochester 2jet carburetor, intake manifold, and accessory brackets. The chrome air cleaner will be replaced with an original 1966 factory correct 2 barrel air cleaner. I painted it gray. I like the color even though I realize it’s not the correct color gray.
It’s on the run stand for a break in run. VIDEO HERE. Here are a few pics and ANOTHER VIDEO.
