    This question is for Jermey the 283 block I bought off you is going to be put into Matthews 1966 chevy truck. Matthew and I were wondering how it was running before you pulled it out of 62 stepside?We are going to be overhauling it here in the next few mounths.Matthews truck is coming along slowly,we found out that someone has already put disc. brakes on front also its been changed to 5 lugs.

    [updated:LAST EDITED ON Jul-12-06 AT 01:54 PM (CST)]Morton it ran fine but I would put an overhaul kit in it, just to be on the safe side. Thats nice to have the brake work already done. I need to do the same on my truck. Here is a link to what mine looks like. Let me know when you get the motor in. Talk to ya later. Jeremy
