 RE ring,check all bearings etc, reassemble and either sell to a Nova 4 speed car owner ($$$$) or it goes in my '67 Chevy II.

This IS a short block & that's why I came home with both legs and arms ! LOL ;No heads,intake,distributor,carb. No chevy II oil pan, it has a 'vette pan on it from the circle track car. It HAD a windage tray; the studs are still there but cut to accommodate the non chevy II oil pan---  And Steel crankshaft with good rods !!

So I will need some pieces- 291,461,462  head castings for now.

I might have the pan on the shelves here. Not sure. I know I need one but I'm not sure if I have a second one.

 No problem Rich. You need that stuff to get yours going (sedan 1st). It will give me something to look for @ swap meets.

I know now that I have two on the shelve. One is brand new in the GM box. One has been damaged (dented) on the front sump part of the pan. It was also brand new when I put it on the wagon and never saw the road. Car slipped of the jack and I didn't trust the room between the dent and the sump screen/pick up. I figure it could be pushed back out but haven't tried.

It's yours.  I will be pulling parts off the shelve soon so maybe there might be a few more goodies you may need.

         Or the L 79 intake for '66/'67 327 350 hp. This one is cast 11  3  65 perfect dating for '66.

         There is one on KIJIJI now for $500 and there is a '63 particular Winters on as well for $600. 

         Not as common as some manifolds.
