There are two complete 1978 305/145/180 engines for sale in the Montreal area someone should pick up and build a slow stocker. You run these in just about every thing GM made in 1978.

Maybe.. The 283 I'm working on looks more like a "quarter rocket",
and the other thing doesn't fit your allowed parameters .... Tell us what's on your mind. Looking for somebody to run down your average?

Ed, do you mean '66 or '67? 290 was not available in 65.

Not a Dime Rocket, but I am going to convert my red Formula over to run NMCA Chevrolet Performance Stock. This is the cheapest project I have had in a long while! I am thinking about doing a build thread if anyone wants to see it.

Seems like you should start a "Class Racer Builds" thread!
