VERNE, I would have sent you the below private Email, but I see you dont list any. I have a friend Jim B. in Conyers,GA that is quite knowledgeable on the 62 B.T. subject. After reading this thread he sent the following.....FYI Lamar Walden built his engine.
"Chuck;
Since I'm not a member I can't respond. This guy Verne came as close as anyone....however he was wrong about the Z-11 top half being offered in 62...I have a 63 split manifold but original 62 experimental heads that start with an "O" seial #. Z-11 package was offered in 62 called a "Sevice Package " and was totally correct to run a 63 block !Also if it has headers then knock off about 800-1000k for the manifolds "IF" and a big if you can find them ! If it has disc brakes then it doesn;t have the correct master cylinder. Mine has a Corvette M/C marked "7/8 ths for a smaller line as opposed to the standard "1" inch. Corvettes are great but a correct big car would be better !
Still looking ! Also I have the "metallic brake option" nos shoes...very rare ! I was offered cash 25K for those heads alone !Then the price depends on actual condition of the car itself ! Paint,interior Date coded posi etc. If he buys it for what he says he did he should be fine. Muscle cars have gone through the roof ! Also I have an original not I repeat not dry rotted spare ! Very rare... I would take 130 K for mine and not a penny less !"
