I think it's a 347. Karl might remember. He and I went and looked at it with Bob a few months back. As sweet sounding a small block as you've ever heard!
It has an aluminum block. The suspension work is very nicely done from Kirkham - all neatly machined. Bob couldn't find motor mounts that he liked so he had custom solid mounts made up. The exhausts were custom made, stainless if I remember right. Aluminum case for the trans? I think so. Lots of expensive lightweight pieces.
Much of the work was done at Performance Motorsports. (480) 464-4748. 944 N Country Club Dr Mesa, AZ 85201-4108
I have three unremarkable photos from the visit that Karl and I made. (Karl in front of the car, a top view of the engine, and a poor photo of the Kirkham number plate.) If the buyer will PM me an email address, I'll send them. I can also send Karl, but he's unremarkable too, and he eats...
