Those may or may not work if you are running a manual trans.

Re: 283 & 327 for one low price!
283 came out of a 64 chevelle sat in barn most of its previous life last tag said 79
Motor is "stuck" and I know 1 valve didn't return when smacked with hammer Hoping its going to be a ring and not a crank bearing Most bolts so far are coming off easy(2 carb studs.towards front. are all by gone but threads in nuts) And only 2 on intake that are rusted 1 of which I can hopefully get and Not have to cut n deal with I'm hoping it will be a simple take apart, mild checking(replacing if needed) but wishing for a simple honing and rings ..probably machine the seats/guides for unleaded Definitely need another carb Powerpack heads? Turbo-fire? |

Re: 283 & 327 for one low price!
That engine needs to be torn down and rebuilt.

Re: 283 & 327 for one low price!
I would open up the 327 too .
if your going to spend the money to build a engine in that condition I would put the money in the 327 before putting that much money in the 283. |

Re: 283 & 327 for one low price!
Tomorrow I'm going to put things back on 283 and swap it out on the stand for the 327
Try to start to tear it apart or at least soak bolts in ATF for a day While taking it apart I'm Going to get a 250 piston and swap out my #1 on my I6 Question?? I can take mounts, clutch bar to block, and trans mounts loose (or off) and tilt the engine up enough to get oil pan off and get to #1 rod bolts,yes?? Still has power , psi is always around 20 warm and she doesn't get hot but damn she smokes like a freight train Should be ordering piston in this next couple days to swap out next sun n Mon hopefully |
