1957 283 Chevy Engine Block #3731548-with Crank And Rods And Other Parts on 2040-parts.com
Springfield, Missouri, United States
Up for sale is a 1957 283 Chevy small block with crankshaft and rods. The engine casting number is 3731548 and the block is dated C197 (March 19, 1957). The front pad reads F325EL. The front pad stamping looks original however someone has added the "L" and did a poor job to make it look like a Corvette 283ci, 283hp, manual transmission motor.
The engine checks out as standard at top of cylinders but would need to be bored since there is a ring groove. The rods and pistons are not original to the block. The crankshaft is GM part $3849847 which is a 283 small journal crank. I checked a rod journal and a main journal an they checked standard at 1.998 and 2.2995. The engine does have the main caps. There is some pitting around some of the water holes on deck so would need to be decked. I have not had the block checked at a machine shop but I do not see any visible signs of problems, so the motor is sold "as is". Also included are as follows: Reconditioned oil canister with decal Intake manifold: part #3844459, dated I156 Reconditioned set of Chevrolet script steel valve covers Rear end housing only-(no gears)-part #3844459, dated L156 Local pickup only. There will be a charge if you want me to prepare parts for shipper pickup. |
