Hi, Thanks for the engine info. Being that it's a Canadian built 283, that would rule out it being a Corvette motor. It was a fresh built motor...
Ah ha.....that was an easy check.......no side mounts. Now comes the question again of what could this have come out of. Will the numbers on the...
I just picked up a 283 and was curious to ID it. The block numbers are 3731548 which seems to indicate a 1957 engine, but I could not find out any...
