Re: 1961 corvette stocker info
The fuel injection is going to take a ton of work. There is (it is sidelined right now) a very fast 62 in C/S with a fuel injected 327. So the unit is capable of making the HP to go fast. The guide shows the heads and cams to be similar, or the same, depending upon which HP rating you choose. I would imagine you'd have to really spin the 283 to use the heads, cam, and intake as well as the 327 in the 62 does.
I deal with those cars a lot for restoration purposes. Either induction system could cost $10K to start, just to find all the pieces in good shape, before you pay anyone to make it raceworthy.
Of course, if you're into that sort of thing, the "cool factor" would be priceless. I think the little gold 62 C/S is one of the coolest stockers around.
