Best small block auto engine...Chevy 283 or Ford 289? [View all] brush May 2024 OP
283, much easier to get parts Shellback Squid May 2024 #1
Agreed. And it's descendants, so to speak, are still available as 350 ci crate engines... brush May 2024 #2
Had a '56 chev with a 265; similar to the 283. Loved it. Permanut May 2024 #3
The 265 was the first, then the 283, 327 and finally the 350. brush May 2024 #4
My 65 Chevy had a 283, the lead sled, I was up in Maine, and it was down 3 quarts, great engine for a moron. dem4decades May 2024 #5
Just my two cents.. Permanut May 2024 #6
I remember them...the long, near fastback look. brush May 2024 #7
I beg to differ, the 65 Impala was okay, the 2 door, 67 Impala was beautiful. We had a marine blue one, with dem4decades May 2024 #8
Roger that.. Permanut May 2024 #9
Okay, but you could argue that both the 67 and 68 had triple taillights, only the 67's were classy; the 68's were stupid dem4decades May 2024 #10
I'll give ya that; they went downhill from there. Permanut May 2024 #11
Actually, I stopped paying attention after that. The 57 through 67 Impala's were the bomb. Okay, maybe not the 61. dem4decades May 2024 #12
Same here.. Permanut May 2024 #13
327 Chevy with 4 barrel Holly... The mighty mouse. yourout May 2024 #14
I liked the 283 in my Skylark Redleg Jun 2024 #15
