A 2 carb 150 HP Stovebolt appeared in 1953 under glass,fibreglass that is in the first Corvette.
All 300 were hand built in Flint,because the St.Louis plant was not ready yet, and they were all polo white.
And now you know the rest of the story !!

Some 1955 Corvette's supposedly were available with the 235 (but who'd want one with the first small block 8 available in 1965). | | | | | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 | The engine in the '53 and '54 corvette came with a carb set-up that had 3 side draft carbs.
