Seems like an okay deal. Know the mileage or history of it? What did it come out of?

that sounds like a real good deal for a 400. There are not many survivors around that haven't been desecrated for a 383 conversion

When my '62 belonged to my brother, he had a 400 in it for awhile. That thing kicked A$$! With posi, it would smoke the tires across and entire 4-lane street intersection... the only thing about it is it ran a little hot...
