From documents and what I have been told it is completely stock---mostly untouched. Is there a way to tell if the engine has been updated for unleaded fuel--without removing the heads---engine is a 283. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | really no way to tell, and unless it's been rebuilt in the past dozen years or so, it's unlikely it'll have hardened seats - OTOH, it's unlikely you'll have any problem unless you work it recklessly hard .... if you wind up rebuilding it, hardened seats can be added then
