It should of come with a 336 cubic inch gmc engine (Pontiac engine painted orange with gmc decals on the valve covers) Well somebody could correct me... the 336 may have only been a gmc engine, but the 347 which was used in 57 was definetly a pontiac engine. Definetly a "pontiac" block. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 187 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 187 | The engine may have been changed,looks like a 389,no GMC on valve cover.
Engine is stuck.I have a gallon of WD-40,I'll try that before I pull it out.If that don't work I've got a 228 I may drop in.
