New 67 SWB and a question already
Hey Guys,
This weekend I went and picked up my recently new 1967 Short box....and what a trip from hell! The truck was about a 3 hour drive each way and on the way home the trailer axel dropped out of the trailer (Broken ubolt) After 3 hours on the road I was able to nurse the trailer to a farmers driveway. The next day I went back and repaired the trailer on the road side...all said and done it took me 16 hours to do a 6 hour trip...and managed to keep the truck in one piece. Now the question, I have no idea what engine is in the truck now and from what I can tell is it is an older Oldsmobile engine from the blue paint. I am unable to find a block number...Maybe one of you guys could help me out? I will post more pictures when I have them, Mike |

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
From the looks of it just looks like a sbc from the early 80s, they painted them blue for a little.

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
There should be a block number stamped on the back of the engine near the bell housing behind the driver side valve cover. The lip with the stamp will more than likely be covered in dirt and grime. You will need to crap it away.

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
Very late 70's or very early 80's small block. Probably a 2 barrel carb model. I would hazard to guess 265, 267 or 305. Malibu, Monte or maybe Monza passenger car.

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
I am still looking at the engine stands and the way they bolt up. They just look,,,, different.

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
That is a correct Chevy small block from the late 70 to early 80's. Manifolds are correct, the pcv hose to intake manifold is correct and the engine mount stands look like 73 up truck stands to me.

Re: New 67 SWB and a question already
I tried for about 30 minutes with a mirror and light and cannot find anything back there. I know on most Chevys when you look down the rear of the engine there is a protruding section where the block number is....this one goes straight down and it's hard to see any visible numbers. I well try to clean it up this week and try again. Thanks for the input everyone!
