Looks to be a ‘74 or thereabouts. I’m sure an SBC can’t be that hard to work on... I think the most horsepower it could possibly have is around 270.

Stroker 383 will fix that very cheaply.

Looks like the garbage man hasn’t picked up the trash yet.

If it is a ‘74 that means emission controls and tune but no cats. I doubt that there are many malaise Corvettes that are still wearing their emissions control devices or still have a smog tune.

I didn’t they screw up the compression to comply with emissions, why not fix that first?

While you’ve got it apart throw a stroker crank and a decent set of heads to fix the compression issue.

it’s been there for months, it would be such a shame to see it scrapped.....

that is WAY beyond my ability, I think there might be some SBC part in the garage though..

That’s a bit more power than I was thinking but I like it.

Not sure what your plan is, but honestly, buy one of these, dump the lump in it, and buy a blueprint engine chevy 400. Performance solved. I would do that in the t/a if they made a pontiac.
