Default junk yard

There are a lot of good deals to be found in junkyards. I acquired 5 FE motors for no more than an average of $30.00 each. Three blocks are good standard bore, one is bored .040 over and one will need sleeving. Along the way it has given me a lot of info and all the brakets I will ever need for an FE motor. Knowing me I may wake up tomorrow and just buy the first from SA.

Something a lot of guys on these websites hate to admit is the fact that CS wanted to use Chevy engines in the first place, they turned him down because they didn't want him competing against the Vettes, an error on their part in hindsight. I do know of a Unigue SC 427 with a Chevy 427 powerplant that seems to outrun many FE motors though, funny how that works.
