Squeeze, I've had lots of V motors...........but no pics! :o :mad:
The 283, IMHO, is the best engine they ever made. Had a set up vey similar to yours about 10 years ago in a '57 3600. Gotta love the oil filler tube in the intake, they should have kept those. The 2G is a good carb., but I ran a 4G intake with an adapter so I could use a Holley 4160.
Yes, it worked! Had to jet it down some.........
I started out with 265 heads on it (for those who don't know, they had a different bolt pattern for the rocker covers; ever wonder why they have the extra holes in the gaskets? That's why! They also had no water jacket around the spark plugs).
I even had early covette rocker covers
. Dumb kid that I was, a buddy conned me out of them for $10 :mad: :mad: . Talk about kicking myself now!
