Default Re: WANTED: Corvette 1966 427ci engine or parts

Peter,

-----If the rules are fast and hard the only block you can use in this instance is a 942.962 blocks were used exclusively in 65 and were 396 blocks.I would have to double check in Noland Adams book but I dont think any 962 blocks came in 66 Corvettes.In any event a 962 block would be way more difficult to find anyway.
-----Just looked in the book and Noland is saying that some very early 66s had a block with 961 as the last three casting digits.I personally have never seen a 961 block so would think a search for one of them would be fruitless.
-----I also called one the block suppliers in the local area and he is just too high priced to even give you his phone number.Stupid money!He must have overpaid!Hope this helps..........Bill S
