Ok, here's pics of the 400 sbc that was in the original 67' truck I had started with. When I bought the truck the motor and 700R4 trans were fresh rebuilds and ran great. Bruce ended up w it after all the trading, well decided it would look great under the hood of this build w a lil TLC. Going for that old school look.. In these pics it's already ground down, was red..

1970 z-28 double hump heads....I hate posting these pics cause the motor looks horrible right now. Thinking on going w a gun metal charcoal color on the motor and accents against the black..

Re: Wild C10 project
Guess nobody likes my 400 sbc idea...this motor was full of torque and pulled hard all the way to bout 5300 rpm. Was a fresh rebuild so really don't want to pull the heads to see if they bored it to a 406, not sure why they wouldn't at that stage. It's a roller motor w a good cam. Plans are to get it painted gun metal grey with the batwing caddi/olds air breather on top to give that nostalgic look...

Re: Wild C10 project
I'm sure any engine you guys do will be outta site considering what is going into the body.
BTW, I like those valve covers. |

Re: Wild C10 project
Nice work!
I like the 400 idea but then I love tellin people it's a high torque 265ci. Then I lite the tires with a tap of the gas pedal. Besides you already have it and you can always upgrade later. And it would be easy on the budget. I say use it! Are you sure it's a 400? What are the casting #'s? Oh and most pistons will have the .030 stamped into the top indicating the bore. If it hasn't been run much it will still be visible through a spark plug hole possibly. |

Same as mine. How about the heads? I used the stock heads but punched them to 2.02's And had the bowls worked for the new valves. It has been a very reliable engine. Of course there was a lot more than that done to it but blah blah. |
