- My high school English teacher has had this 1962 Impala Super Sport since 1972 but it's been parked since 1979. Sometime in those 7 years he rebuilt a 1962 300HP 327 engine for the car and installed it. The car has since deteriorated but he has another 1962 SS that he plans to install the engine in so let's see if we can get get this beast to breathe fire again! As always, thanks for watching!

Genesis h Christ! Why not just change your name from Mortske Repair to "will it run?" Member back in the day when you use to put out shorter videos that were entertaining, and actually showed people how to REPAIR things?
Ahhh, go bury a bone, Dumbstrong!
I’m not sure about you but I like the longer videos ! There more interaction and less editing and what you see is really how he is !
How did we not repair anything?!? I think you need a hug Don!
watching Morstke for over an hour sure beats any garbage theyre Airing on television, and hey there's a chance ya may even learn something new. 🤘
Better do it the way Don wants you to do it, Sir Morticus. Because after all, he's important. Forget the rest of us, that like the way you are doing things. #makedonthedouchehappy
That's probably going to be a great engine again. The 327 is famous, one of the great ones, and you did a great job getting it to run again and that required your expertise.
That 327 is, I think, one of the best engines GM ever made. However, since I'm weird, I gotta say, my favorite is the old leaning tower of power. You can't kill 'em with a rock.
i threw a rod after a "reputable" company rebuilt my slant six.... number four. engine was still running after it made a bay window in the block.
I seem to be good at ruining slants!
I agree about the 327. -- And I have known people that have run those slant six engines forever, they're a great engines.
I prefer the Ford 300 over the slanty personally.
I own three of these, one is a '65 300hp Corvette the other is a '66 275hp SS Impala mtr, and 1 is a '68 large journal 345-ish hp. You can't go wrong with a 327ci early small journal for power and at least 1hp per Cubic inch engine. Best GM Mtr ever made IMO and the 1st to give 1 or more Hp's per Cube. Try and find a decent one from a 'vette in the 60's now and you've got something most don't even care about now that the market is over run with LS's and that crap.. No I don't need 500+hp from a Engine to have fun and reliability. I'll take 375hp any day. Mortske (Kevin) lol Great content. keep up the interesting entertainment.
LA 318 all day long. When I was a kid, I found an old dodge in the back 40 with no water pump, no alternator, and no radiator. Yanked the carb, cleaned it. Threw some gas down its throat and in the tank with a new battery and it fired right off. I drove that truck around in the back 40 until it ran out of gas. The next morning poured some more gas in the tank, cranked for a while and then, WHAM! It fired off again. I was shocked. That thing had been so hot the day before with no water pump or radiator but woke right back up.
There is just something so gratifying about getting an engine running on a stand. When it's all dialed in, and you can just walk up, bump the switch and BAM she fires off and idles smooth.
Agreed!
That look on the customers face was another satisfied customer! Man this was a great video Mortske. Never too early for a sammich, especially a celebratory sammich for another job well done!
327,283 ,350,400 292 strait 6.My favorite motors.Go Chevy! Nice work getting that 327 going Mortske!😎
Gas mileage be damned, what a great old engine, I love the small block Chevy’s, great one Mortske
They actually aren't bad on gas, can be set up to get the same mileage as any modern larger V6 with a 4spd auto, potentially even better.
Great job Mortske, I knew you would get it running. You're right that engine does sound good. From the sound of it those rings came loose and I think it might have a 195 thermostat in it. Keep up the great work and God Bless you and your family. 💪💯🔥👍👍🙏🙏🤙
Damn skippy
"that's a weird dog", they're all weird in their own special way. :-) I like big block Chevy's for all the torques plus they fill out an engine bay nicely.
Duff high tailed it out of there when she finally fired! That thing runs good :-) Thanks for the Monday morning entertainment!
Our pleasure!
Really like the longer video mortske Regardless of what the haters say Don 🤬 the longer video just proves how truly great a mechanic you really are the struggle is half the fun it was very educational you showed with time and patience it's possible to bring back the rings you and duff keep up the amazing content thank you sir for your an duff's time
I'm a Mopar guy, I had a 1957/58ish 392 hemi that sounded amazing, had it in a 1960 dodge town wagon. someone offered me stupid money for it so off it went. Love the reliability of the slant 6, first truck had one, oil pump stopped pumping, old and clapped out, that engine went for another year before seizing solid. Always reminds me of the old slick 50 and duralube infomercials. Love the sound of the 5.9 12v wish I never got rid of that motor, have a 6.7 6 speed 4x4 now and love the truck and sound.. Not so much the 5.50 a gallon of diesel this week.
Small block Chevy in any displacement!!! BEST engine ever!!!!!!
Back in the 80s i use to work part time in a junk yard and i would take all the 327 engines. i never had a problem selling them. i think they were the best engine Chevy made back then. people would go nuts for the 327 with 202 heads.
That was a strong running engine. Had one in a clapped out 75 Camaro with a 4 speed. l won many a race with that car.😜
Wow it runs extremely well for sitting for so many years. That thing should motivate his 62 just fine.
Sure does!
Howdy Duff and friend, i’m 79 and had a lot of Ford flat heads I love them they were a good motor, fords I go with the Windsor 351 only because it has a distributor on the front, but I’m a true Chevy guy love the small blocks😁👍
It's amazing how old engines just want to run! So simple just need 12 volts and fuel. I'm glad the rings came around!!
Me too!
That anniversary gold color is beautiful! Engine sounds pretty damn good, looking forward to him getting it back in the car and back on the road.
that might be a tribute car GM made of them in 62-64 in that color
I've always been a Ford guy and love the FE engines. However, you can't deny that the 327 Chevy is an awesome little powerplant.
There just small bore short stroke little engines. Cubic inch is king. Small block Chevrolets in general are unbeatable simplicity and reliability wise
@@brandonbell3089 I wouldn't call the 327 small bore. Short stroke yes, but they had a 4 inch bore, same as the 350.
@@jesseduke694 4IN bore in a small block is a decently small bore. Not as bad a 3.875 bore though
Don't shoot me, I like the 7.3 Power stroke, and the flathead V8s.. I would really enjoy watching you do a complete engine build even if its just a quick n dirty one... Love the channel, can't wait for Monday nights.....
Nancy's guy Frank here... I know I'm an odd duck... but I like ANY flat head! Particularly like the later Ford V8's ... BUT also the Pontiac straight 8, and the Buick for that matter, also any of the flat head Ford 6 cylinders, or Hudson, Kaiser, and Packard flat heads. They all have their interesting points... ALL are super smooth running. Thanks for a great show... ALL the time. I always look forward to seeing a new one. But for me the "older the eng. the better" (I don't go as far back as the Model T though.. ha ha).
Wow! How bittersweet! I’m very glad you got one of my favorite engines running but sad I won’t see it goin into something of yours. Great video anyway!!
Hey Mortske!! If I remember correctly, those camel hump heads had 1.94 valves, your motor possibly has a steel crank too, I started my wrenching career playing with those motors, the guy that I worked for when I was 14-15 years old had a fuel injected 283(301) in a corvette, that would be fun working on that motor, it would bring back many memories....I feel a tear coming, by the way, that bracket from the starter to block is missing....their was a time when you couldn't give these motors away!!!!
2nd gen straight 6cyl chevy engines ie 194/230/250/292. Great torque, bullet proof, good gas mileage.
Big ole 21/2 inch exhaust through rams horns manifold yeah baby
So true, very good motors for their time. Most all of us jumped to 350's or big blocks when we could. Most camel hump heads did have the 1.94 intake valves, and the rarer ones were the 2.02 valves. Like the 283's they were good engines to learn on. As you said, 283/327's worth little to nothing when bigger engines became common.
Typically the 461 and 462 castings were 1.94. The 2.02s mostly had the same casting numbers followed by an X. When I was growing up there was a neighborhood junkyard full of old chevy trucks and Impalas. My friends and I hunted many of the "Camel Hump" heads out of that old yard. One of our best finds was late 1969 to 1970 camel humps that had accessory holes for the front accessory brackets.
Sorry they had 2.02 valves not 1.94. js
Sorry I’m late. My son-in-laws brain surgery went well today. Now I’m ready for my Mortske fix to calm down. Thanks from MamaCard in Florida.
Great video. Love those old engines. I actually had a 63 Impala Hard Top 327 4 Barrel back in the day. Wishing I never sold it and would love to have it back in same condition today.
My favorite engine- Ford V8 flathead, I was 15, and it was my first rebuild. However I really do like the Chevy 283 and the 327. As usual, great show, my friend. Be good and take care. 👍
fuelie heads single four barrel
Thanks Terrence!
Love the longer videos. Reminds me of hanging out with my Dad working on cars. Nothing worth fixing takes place in 15 minutes. There's always issue's to be figured out , thought through. I'm a Ford guy but have had GM's. Currently have a 350 block with Volvo marine in my boat. Solid engine, plenty of torque, speed, and surprisingly decent fuel economy. Enjoy your shows.
Thanks 👍
My uncle had a 57 corvette with a 283, had it punched out to 303! It was no joke when it got loose! Scary fun. She’s real fine my 409 I mean 327! Thanks 🐶🦴
What ever you do, keep it true to a 1961, with the exception of the frame and glass, and other interchangeable parts, keep it Aja “61”!
And if you check out in the southwest, I bet you can find a 61 front clip.
Anyway keep working on it and we’ll keep watching and commenting. Good luck
Great video Mortske! None of the useless knowledge you want to share this guy will take it! When you were trying to start it and it was almost going, I was rooting you on! C’mon ol girl kick over and fire!!!! When it did and you put your hands up I can completely appreciate that feeling of victory!! What a nice piece and I’m so glad to see him getting it back together. Your channel never disappoints.
My favorite engine was my 455 in my 73 old back in the day . And so much great knowledge you give us . Another great engine cheese rice it should run . Great Monday with you and duff.
455 WHAT? There's 3, ya know. And 73 what? Details, boy! 😉
Had one too.
Fav engine I've had? My 6.7 powerstroke. Fav engine to work on? Good old chevy 350 in a 76 K20. Super simple, and it's where I learned what a water pump was!
And all this time I've been calling it Edelbroke. Learn something new every day.
I guess I would say my favourite engine is the Ford pushrod 5.0L H.O. roller cam. Because it’s simple, reliable, makes good power and I know them inside out. Fox chassis Stangs rule.
I've always been a mustang guy but nothing beats the sound of the mod motor. Even my brother and his F body buddies had to agree.
Just sucks they're 200hp lol everything in the 80s sucked ass power wise however I love the fox bodies and camaros of the 80s I own and restored my third gen camaro but I yanked that weak ass 210hp 305 out and it now has a 500hp stroked sbc with nitrious
My Favorite engine is the 351W EFI just because that is the one I have in three of my trucks and they just always run.
Almost any inline 6 I was wrenching on at the time was my favorite. Mostly because things were usually pretty accessible, the simplicity was another blessing.
And affordable!
I bit late to the party, but favorite engine - the Mopar flathead sixes. Any straight six will do in a pinch, but the Mopar flatties stole my heart.
Man, that little engine sounds beautiful. I love 327’s. Another fantastic video. By the way, the weather finally broke and I opened that 3 speed/overdrive transmission up. The inside looked great, and there was no signs of water intrusion. All of the gears work smoothly.
Cool, thanks!
I think my favorite engine was always the old school Chevy 283. Simple, good running and easy to work on. Or the Ford 289.
Right now I’m in to a Barra, an Australian Ford 4.0 liter straight 6. Going in my 64 Comet Wagon with a T56 Magnum. Shooting for 4 digit power with it. Some day I’ll get around to making some videos.
I am a "six in a row" kind of guy. I inherited a 64 Impala with a 230 in it that had almost 200,000 miles on it when I got it. I ran it for two years before the timing chain jumped some teeth. Most of those Chevy sixes were good. The Chevy 292 was a solid engine. I have a friend with a 72 Nova with one. He did some tinkering and makes the vintage Corvette guys mad when he beats them off the line. The Ford 300 was almost indestructible as was the Chrysler "Leaning Tower of Power."
Hey man that was really cool! I have always been very fascinated by Engines and Motors that run well. I need to throw some parts at my SB 350 that I had some work done to, it's been setting in the garage on an engine stand for some years. I really enjoyed watching the video, thanks for the content.
As per your question for your favorite engine, for me that's the legendary AMC/Jeep 4.0, tough as nails and easy to work on, my Grand Cherokee always started and had lots of pulling power for a 6.
I am partial to my 4.0 jeep.. unfortunately it's not of the AMC family, but still a tough engine.
@@samiller63 It is an AMC engine, it was designed in 1985/86 by AMC engineers, it's based off of the 258 by AMC, yes it was updated by Chrysler to include a few changes, but it's most definitely an AMC engine.
@@albundy8139 exactly the Jeep 4.0 is a updated/improved AMC 258 anyone who thinks otherwise doesn’t know what they are talking about and probably hasn’t seen them side by side. it’s also the reason your seeing a bunch of people swap Jeep 4.0 liter engines into Six cylinder ( be it a 232 or 258 Six ) Equipped AMC cars.
Those are great engines!
I was watching and telling that engine “come on!! Come on!!” You got it! Never doubted you.
A long time ago I was able to drive my friend’s 1970 LS6 454 Chevelle. Since then, all other engines have been compared to that beast, and come up short. What an absolute monster!
That's one of my favorites too!
My favourite engine so far has been a 1993 ford 300 6 EFI. Ran like a champ it’s entire life.
Whaaaaaat???
@@danesderelicts what are you asking about? He asked us part way through the video what our favourite engine was and I answered.
@@raistlin7939 prolly fast forward that part. Sorry. Sad engine choice.
@@danesderelicts it was a tough decision out of the 5.0 HO, 351 Windsor, or 7.3 diesel I’ve owned but the 300 six was just completely reliable and trouble free.
@@raistlin7939 I've had all of those also. I think the best engine would have to be a 350 rocket. Great power incredible durability
Great video. Thanks for sharing with us. I LOVE that “run stand” you made with the gauges and ignition switch. That’s what I like to call creative engineering. It’s what me,MacGuiver and Mortske are good at. I hope you clean up that filthy 327 for your teacher before you give it back. That way it will run and look like new. 🙂👍😎
MacMortske
Much appreciated Dave! We don't clean nothin here!
@@dougdunham7607 Good one!
327 is a good engine, but the 283 is a great engine in my opine. The 283 is the endless winding engine's i've ever seen. Back in the late 60's and early 70's i've seen several 283's with 327-350hp heads and solid lift cam smoke mopar's and Ford's all day long!! If you want a killer engine put the cam and heads for the 350hp on it!!! I strongly suggest doing the bottom end if you ever do a stock GM 327-350hp!!! Duff and you keep up the great video's, i can see you would be lost without Duff in charge of your operation! 🏁🏁🏁
Nice job getting that 327 started. Sounded pretty damn good. Favorite power plants for me Chevy: 427/435.
Love to find one of those!
I would have to say my all time favorite engine has to be the Oldsmobile 455 since it’s an engine that’s typically found in lots of cars that are forgotten or overlooked for the more iconic cars. And my facile car with that engine has to be the 66-67 Oldsmobile Toronado because it’s just a cool and weird car and yet it’s a monster of an engine designed to just be a torque monster. Would love to see a video in an Olds 455 or a Cadillac 500
See them in a lot of jet boats as well!
I had a 63 Impala SS. I know one of the primary differences between the 300 and 250 horse engines is that the 300 horse engine got the Carter AFB carb and the 250 horse got the Rochester 4 Jet.
you correct
Main difference was prolly compression ratio...
@@BuzzLOLOL 250 and 300 hp 327 both had 10.5.1 comp had to step up to the 327/350 hp with Holley carb to get the 11.0.1
Different heads. 250hp got powerpack and 300hp got double hump.
@garywilson9081 No. They had Dome pistons, Solid lift cam and 202 valves. The 250hp didnt have 10:5:1. They didn't have the same heads as a 300hp.
I'm a fan of the old Ford 390s. Underrated plant in my opinion.
Another solid video, my man
Duff Dog has left the building !!!!! That first start was smokey you all but disappeared.
Don't be getting soft on us with these clean unstuck engines....
Hopes it didn't cause too much stress getting her to run, no compression sucks (doesn't suck or blow). Thanks for sharing. Always look forward to your content
Good to see one spring back to life, he actually took the time to keep it lubed up and ready to run again. Can't remember what year they started drilling and tapping the crank for bolt to retain the harmonic balancer. I had one that wasn't and spun the balancer off at a rather high rpm, made a hell of a noise coming out from under the car at speed, never did find the balancer.
It would be cool if you did another compression test now that it running to see how much came back.
Favorite engine is 409
I agree! we'll see if we can squeeze that in
What a great idea
I never had one but do wish I'd had one back in the day. No-one wanted them so they were plentiful and cheap at the junk yard.
+1 for compression test
Mine is a little 2.8 Chevy V6....just because it was in my first vehicle I ever bought. An 84 S10 5 speed. Had it in 89 through 2006! Over 300K miles on it. Took our honeymoon in it...lots of long trips to Reno from Washington state. Brought my son who is now 30 home from the hospital in it. Had lots of deer carcasses and Grouse and Salmon in the bed. Camped a ton...it was our only vehicle until about 2001! Replaced a clutch, carburetor, fuel pump, water pump ONCE each...couldn't kill that 2.8! Wish I still had it too!
Man Mortske, that thing sounded good. Nice job. My favorite engine, 327 Chevy. Well done.
Carry-on…
I almost thought this would cost you the shop 🤣. This was a cool video, really different. That motor is roudy, sounds great 👌🏻. My favourite motor is a RB 26 from the R34 Nissan Skyline. Very tunable motor with the stock block. Can make huge power 🤯🤙🏻
I think those engines are underrated, especially when you have all these Supras with 1000+ horseponies. Both great engines but the Nissan doesn't get the hype that it deserves.
Great running little mouse motor. If I remember correctly, the high performance 327 sbc came with what is called a 30/30 cam. It is a solid flat tappet cam. Some guys used to refer to it as a "3/4 race cam" meaning it was a great performance cam, while still being tame enough for street driving. I'm pretty sure I saw you compressing the lifters when checking for stuck valves which means that the Camshaft in that motor is a Hydraulic flat tappet cam. I would venture to say it probably still has the 250hp cam in it, with a set of double hump heads added. Regardless, any sbc enthusiast would still love to get their hands on that engine. Great job bringing it back to life the right way. Sbc cams only use splash lubrication so it's very important to prime the oil system and bring the rpms up to 1500-2000 for a few seconds immediately after starting to get some oil on the cam lobes after they have been in storage for a long time.
My opinion, early 60’s 327 SB’s are about the most indestructible motors I’ve ever tried to blow up LOL! Had one in a 55 Willy’s cj5 for 20 years til I put it in a 72 Chevy L.U.V. I built for a dessert toy. And the last one I had somebody head Mayday rear engine V8 setup they didn’t finish and I found a 327 my dad had in his backyard that had a four barrel on it out of a 63 impala super sport… I didn’t even have to do anything to that one other than break it down and clean it up, slapped it back together and dropped it in that van and sold it a year later at the Pomona for a healthy chunk of change to collector of these Corvair‘s. That was one of those I wish I would’ve kept…
I love hearing engines on a run stand without any drivetrain to drag them down. Just wack the throttle and they rev right now. Gotta say my favorite engine is the Ford 4.6 DOHC, got an 03 Marauder and it just screams.
With compression numbers like that, I thought there is no way Duff's going to get that 327 running. But he surprised me. Good boy.
Hey Mortske, I thought I heard you say that you set the points to .030. That seems to be just a bit too wide. I seem to remember the points gap should be about .019. Great job on the 327. Keep up the good work. My fav is the 289HP. Thanks
Yup, 0.19"
@@MortskeRepair the dwell should be 30
I still have a dwell meter
Got My shirt today. Here on the west coast gettin' ready to break out the V-Twin for the season. We'll sport your shirt come the real warm weather !
Thanks for your purchase!
Gotta love a 327, they are solid motors and wrap up fast.
283 is still my fave. My first car was my 1964 Chevelle, with the original 283 engine with Rochester 2 GC, and I drove it that way for 25 years. Absolutely bulletproof engine, and pretty good mileage, powerful enough to have some fun too. The engine is in the machine shop now, getting ready for a rebuild!
Cool car. Mine 66 mustang 69 302 got it for 800 bucks for auto mechanic in high school
Throw it in the 64 wagon!
Shoot, that motor there would bring wheel hop Wilma to life Puddin🤣🤣
Put it in a Datsun pick-up 😁👍
Tell him you need a scraper
Already has a good 327 in it!
Any Ford, flatty's, Y-block, FE, 335 series, 385 series. But i am really partial to Y-blocks, contrary to popular belief they are a very reliable engine and can make good power. The first V8 powered boat I skied behind had a 312 from a T-Bird it pulled 2 slalom skiers with ease. My brother and I raced on 1/4 mile dirt tracks way back then and they chevy/ford mix was about even in 330 ci range. If you address the weak points, the rocker oiling the engines run hard and stay together. The y-blocks were used by interceptor for marine use. used in more industrial applications than chevys. Extensive use in racing applications, drag racing, oval track, and marine including hydroplane ski boat, and cracker box classes. They are still raced today and there are some really cool after market parts being manufactured today plus the vintage market. Of course I am old, but I've worked on all the brands and find ford no harder to work on than other brands. Keep it up, you do some really good builds.
Black gold, Texas tea. When he drained the old oil out of the engine, that's what I thought. Old school small block Chevys never dies. It sounds and runs good.
.
Had a great day today, I'm going to be dreaming about that engine all day. It sure sounds good
A buddy of mine put a similar engine in his Malibu stock car after he blew up the engine he was running. Pulled it right out of his daily '64 Impala ! He started winning races with that one !Sounds strong !
Great video, I liked when the customer gave the air cleaner a pat after it started. You made his day
Hey Mortske: Two things that the video showed me were... Most engines are built to run and you can't kill a Chevy... Duff supervising the operation kept the process to keep going smooth.......
Mortske repair; You did it! This takes back to my high school years when my friends and I would rebuild engines from the scrap yard. That was 43 years ago and seeing this old SBC
fire into life again sure brings back great memories. We went through the similar ordeals you're experiencing. Man this is music to my ears and the SBC is my favorite engine. Have a great day.
Thanks you too Paul!
Same here, I grew up on SBC's during the early 1970's. Available and easy to learn on. Always a great feeling to fire up/ re-light any engine.
With Mortske videos, the longer the better. 1 h 30 to 2 hours plus to keep me satisfied!
Good to know
Mopar 360 is my fav engine. Duff dog don't care because it's not in a car to go for a ride. No puddin pun? that's ok he didn't pun you either. you guys make my mondays just a bit better.
Very cool video, awesome engine. You brought her back like a pro, papa should be proud.
in 74 my first boss picked up a 1970 hemi cuda hemi orange .i love that thing. back then he put 10 grand in the motor. but i liked my 68 gmc short box c10 with a 307 with vet camel 327 heads stock intake 4 barrel never let me down. should have never sold it.there always fun to get going. ran when parked ya. fun time cheers morts.
“35 thou Yo”. Mortske is hands down the coolest plug gapper on the ye old prairie 😂😂😂
Good video. Engine sounds real good. I guess my favorite engine. is the 390. Had 2 of them, '64 Galaxie 500 and a '68 Torino. Very fast. Also, like the Northstar V8.
Freakin awesome! That was a rad vid. As far as a engine, I'm a GM fan... nothing special there. But my love is my 69, 4-4-2. Orginal power was a 400. But after 25 years I spun it and then built a 455 kick in the junk price wise but so far so good. Thanks again

Interesting
I had the same engine in a 65 impala back in the 1970s. I loved that engine, great gas mileage and ran beautiful
I really appreciate and like your show because you mostly work on antique cars and trucks. I ABSOLUTELY Love DUFF Dog! He's so sweet and seems like a great friend. I love his colors.
I had a 327 chevy all hopped up 400HP @ 8000 RPM in a 1951 Chevy P.U. Truck a little custom work, had a little trouble keeping it on the Freeway, I loved it when it hit 8000 it sounded like Indi race cars or a swarm of bees, sure miss those days.
Nice!
Watching your videos is like hanging out with an old friend. Keep up the good work. Glad to see you working on Chevy stuff again.
Thanks 👍
I thoroughly enjoy the strictly engine videos…. Totally enjoy all your content but for some reason these ones just draw me in even more!
Thanks for the feedback!
That thing is good. Really nice engine to have. Great to watch him see it run in 40 years
I can’t believe how many comments are on this video mostly defending you and longer videos and against the one comment made ! See your very much liked for your talents ( or is it they want to see Duff is all ) LOL. keep it up Bud !
Nice ending with your old English teacher. Betcha didn't know he was a motor head in school. 😁👍
Love it. That sound. It’s so addicting, that’s why I love cars so much.
I could have just watched an hour and 30 minutes of Duff running around trying to find a place to stow his bone, but the part with the engine was good too.
I always have been partial to 327’s because we used to have a 62 Chevy p/u with a 327. Loved that old truck!
Flatties Forever!!! Also, two-bolt 350's. LOVE 235's! AND - you just brought back to life one of my other faves! Kudos!!!
The 300 horsepower 327 was probably the most popular motor at my high school. (66-68) everyone with a 55 56 or 57 Chevy wanted one of these motors.
One of my favorite Engines had a 63 Impala with one and a Slip and Slide with Power Glide Transmission which did not hold up to my driving habits as a 17 year old. Also had a 64 Plymouth at one time with a 318 engine which was very dependable. Have a 69 Olds 442 with a 400 CI engine that I have owned since 75. Completely restored.
Love them 442s
i had an adapter like that on my old 283 1959 Bel-air the brand I had was a Spark-o-Matic I needed it to put a Holley on a Stock Chevy 4-barrel intake manifold! this was back in the mid 1960's.
Well congratulations on another successful start of the 327 so, we will see what your going to drop this in. A 3 speed on the column. Does not seem right. But, as always very good work. Thank you for sharing!
