The numbers matching would be good for an investment but i would take the non matching big block for fun.

Well if you get Norvals, I get yours ( I really just want the engine :cheers:

If that doesn't work, I'll stick with my big smallblock. Bet of both worlds :D

I will take Norvals car too :) ... when can I pick it up? ;)

I would take the big block as long as it isn't like the disaster that Merlin built. :_dupe:

I'd either go with the big block or high horsepower small block :thumbs: #'s matching is great for an investment piece but I like to :steering:

as long as it is a vert with no rust or major work to be done, I'd take either.

HOLY poopie NORVAL!!! What size shoe horn was needed to fit this motor between the frame rails of a C3? I would classify you and TWIN_TURBO as OVER ACHIEVERS!! Does NASA know you two have those rockets? I thought I was proud of my 385HP small block... :leaving:

Small Block- BIG Block... as long as it is a Chevy CORVETTE... :cool:
