That looks like a pre-1968 engine.

I dont even know if thats a chevelle. Definitely a pre-69 engine, alternator on the wrong side, pre 69 air cleaner, painted valve covers, etc. Looks like a 67 Impala or something. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Definitely not a 69 COPO anything.

Kinda looks like a '65 or '66 Impala to me. Definitley a full size model. Look at all the room around that thing. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]

The single master cylinder rules out 67 or 68. It must be 65 or 66.

I BELIEVE ITS A 66 FULL SIZE. NO 427 IN 65 AND DUAL MASTER CYL IN 67. ORANGE VALVE COVERS-NON SUPER SPORT.

Definately a 67 air cleaner. If you measure that horn, I'll bet it 7 1/8 long!!!!!!!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]
