So I just picked up a new project. Bought this car last week, and this past sat tore the fenders core support all the wiring. The car had a 305 block that ran like a dog 700r4 tranny. I will be taking this all out and replacing it with either a 383 or LS power and 6 speed I hope. The car lucky has no rust only 2 small places so I got lucky.. Check out those valve covers haha

Looks like a nice start....


You should definitely plan the build around the valve covers!!!

Congrats on the project! Keep us updated....oh, and we'll help you spend your money!! :unibrow:

Go with a LSx motor!! Even if it's carbed for awhile it's a move in the right direction!! :cheers:

Ya the valve covers is what sold me on the car.. JK

I plan on just tearing the car down then going from their. I will keep the pics coming.

That's what I was thinking as well. Go with the LSX motor!!! Although a nice 383 stroker all done up is a nice motor as well.
Body looks to be in pretty good condition.
GOOD LUCK!!!:thumbsup:

LS for sure! And try to adapt the valve covers to fit.

I will be working on it again this weekend, ill keep posting the pictures. I may just do a carb motor not sure on how deep the pockets can go haha

If you do carbed, will it be a 383 like you mentioned earlier? That would be NICE!!! Nice little engines for the Camaros.:unibrow: :unibrow:
GOOD LUCK!:thumbsup: :cheers: :cheers:

I was supposed to go look at that car last week. Is your first post a typo? His ad said it had a 350 in it. Good start.

No he had no clue about the car We bought it 2 weeks back. I looked up the block numbers it said it was a 305 2 bolt main from 1978-79. It ran like crap too.
