Interesting that the 383-2/4bbl was an over-the-counter package and was a production OEM offering...

As regards to the World Products block, the only AMC aftermarket block is the Aluminum 401 block, which it would not be legal.

As regards to the availability of AMC OEM parts, they are scarce and difficult to find since due to their low demand, the wrecking yards will crush the cars and send them to the foundry for recycling. The want the space for the more common makes of cars.

I'm still waiting for those Group numbers and dates there Mr. Know It All.

Re: The damage recently done
 

And what? When you decide to build an AMC you didn't know that? Now they expect "welfare" in the way of new parts? Cam cores don't know what lobe lift is ground on them. AFBs (Edelbrock) and Autolite carbs aren't that hard to find and the newly approved intake is probably rarer than an original.
I'm still waiting for a Super Duty 301 Pontiac block!

Tom, kudos for racing something outside of the norm, and Jeff you too with your AMX (and even you too Billy with the 6banger(s) you raced)...that's always been my preferrence when money dictates what I can/can't race. If I had to do it all over again, I'd either have gone after an AMC Rambler (especially the late 60's like yours Tom), or a Rebel. However, I also liked the Hornet's, the Concord's, and the Spirit's. Thanks to Cliffords Research, I could've built up one of them quite nicely (and had a car similar to Ed's Gremlin), or had a V8 midsize car (the Rebel) that I don't know of anyone racing such in Stock or Super Stock...

Who knows, when (if) my checkbook budget expands, I may give AMC a whirl with another car...nothing wrong with having two stockers, it worked for Jim Hughes, and it also works for Michael Beard....that said, I'll always be a Mopar guy in disguise, and there's some combos out there that aren't being raced, that could work and be fun to try racing with? :)

Ed, that's a race that I'd even like to see, and another reason to consider an AMC for me (when the budget would allow), because I like racing something against the norm, always have and always will....

For the west coasters that dont know Billy Nees ,trust me you dont want him building a car in your class!! He may be old and ugly but he can get it done!! Hey Billy I have amx paint is rough just the way you like them!!

Re: The damage recently done
 

Don't need no stinkin' paint.

Re: The damage recently done
 

As I remember it, I think your car ( 67,8,9 Camaro) was in primer back in the mid to late 70's at the Patch. Didn't need paint way back then.............
