engine swap
I was thinking about swapping out my 327 to a 396 on a 65 corvette . I was wondering about the fitment , will it fit on the frame (motor mounts) and other possible problems?

65 could be had with a 396 sure you shouldnt have any major problems. not sure on mounts, other than that youll need headers, cooling system upgrade (maybe) brackets. Worth it for sure. Youll forget all about that 327 once you have that torque of the BB
