HELLO! THIS AUCTION IS FOR A VERY NICE BB CHEVROLET SHORT BLOCK FRESHLY REBUILT BY BY JIM LARRS OWNER OF ORANGE ENGINE IN ANAHEIM, CALIF...
THIS 425 HP 427 4 BOLT MAIN 11:1 COMPRESSION SHORT BLOCK WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW BY ME FROM COURTESY CHEVROLET IN SAN DIEGO IN THE SPRING OF 1966. SINCE IT WAS A PARTS DEPARTMENT SHORT BLOCK THERE IS NOTHING STAMPED ON THE FRONT PAD AND THE MOTOR HAS NEVER BEEN DECKED. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL BILL OF SALE FROM COURTESY CHEVROLET –SO YOU CAN SAY THIS IS A ONE OWNER MOTOR.
SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING I HAD THE BLOCK BORED .030 OVER AND INSTALLED A SET OF TRW 12:5 (NEW) PISTONS (GAS WAS CHEAP BACK THEN AND THE MOTOR RAN FINE ON STANDARD WHITE PUMP).
THIS SHORT BLOCK IS COMPLETELY REBUILT, READY TO INSTALL AND FIRE UP.
