Im getting a 383.
Yep thats right im getting a 383 for the 67, im excited as all hell. A friend of mine knows the guy who is selling it, its a complete engine, i don't know the complete specs yet, but it is a complete engine, carb, headers, everything. I guess he built it for his car but didn't like how it ran in his car, i guess he was putting crappy gas in it.

but take a wild guess as to how much i am paying for it?

That's the cost of headers alone!!

Good deal, I bet you can't wait to feel the power and torque from that engine.

I officially hate you. I want a complete 383 for $300. Hell, even if it ran like **** it'd give me more HP than my v6. Congrats bro, good score!

It could be possible though, I know a guy who sold a built 350 that was putting out great numbers with AFR heads and he had several grand invested in the internals alone, he sold the engine for $500 and some change.
