Once in a while I mention it....it originally came with a 4.9. I used it as my winter back in the day.


Here's a link from a few years ago. The text gives details.

Thanks for looking. I tweaked the 301 and that ran pretty good and got over 20 mpg....used to cruise around with my buddies on weekends and could run even with their cars across any intersection. I installed a "blue printed" 72 455 HO that sounded no different than the 4.9. One night I took turns pulling away from everyone of them....they had no clue what was going on.... Oh the good ole days!

Money and time have been coming together here, lately...It does run and drive right now. I put a 70 350 in it, in 1992 as a temporary engine solution (flat #7 exh lobe of original 400), did I say temporary? the 350 is still in it...

Have been gathering waaay to many parts, including the cam and lifters I got from you....
