Last thursday I brought home a 283 Chevy engine I "won" on an Ebay auction that will eventually go in my Green car. It supposedly was "rebuilt but never run". I took a chance on bidding on it but ended up getting it for a good price.
Well it turned out to be just a used 283. Not rebuilt anytime recently that I can tell. I contacted the seller and he apologised and actually ended up refunding 1/2 the price. Anybody have a used adapter and flywheel for pre '86 Chevy V8 to 914? Mike T |

Be sure to sell any goodies that may have come with the 283. I got very good money for the 283 specific oil pan and cast hugger style (factory, I forget the proper name for them) exhaust manifolds on Evilbay.
