His wife told me that they were going to start putting it back together as much as possible. I wasn't sure what "as much as possible" she meant though.
I have no clue what engine he has. I didn't ask. |
I'm pretty sure it doesn't have a 289 in it. :pot_stir:

Yeah I meant 283. Sorry, looks like the Chevelles didnt have a 283ci in '72. But they had these...
230 CID Inline-Six I6 250 CID Inline-Six I6 307 CID Small-Block V8 327 CID Small-Block V8 350 CID Small-Block V8 396 CID Big-Block V8 400 CID Small-Block V8 402 CID Big-Block V8 427 CID Big-Block V8 454 CID Big-Block V8 Yes, all these were in Chevelles. Thats a long list! |
I believe by 1972 the 396 was replaced by the 402, the 427 by the 454, 327 by the 350. I could be remembering incorrectly. My 1970 had a 454 bored .60 over.

I took this list from the wikipedia article about Chevelles so Im not 100% sure but I know every v8 that Chevy made was available as an option. The 307 was the base engine but in CA the base was the 350. More than likely itll be a 350.

wow, you guys really know the chevelle. lol. I don't know anything about american cars other than when it comes to fixing them I have to think outside the box or imports. I found that out when I was working on a few F-350's.

I grew up with old iron v-8s and holley carbs. I love old muscle cars and big as cruisers. I just got a line on my dad's buddy's car. A 57 chevy bel air. All original, 283, 2 speed powerglide, original tropical teal turquoise/white two tone paint, original interior, CA black plate, and he only wants $9,000. He drives it around when its sunny out and cruises to pick up women half his age... Sorry not interseted in the chevelle anymore good luck with the sale amigo.
